Periodic Reporting for period 1 - INBUILT (Innovative bio/geo-sourced, re-used and recycled Products coupled with BIM-based digital platform for very low carbon construction, circular economy, energy and resource efficiency)

Berichtszeitraum: 2023-12-01 bis 2025-05-31

Zusammenfassung vom Kontext und den Gesamtzielen des Projekts

Transitioning of construction industry toward sustainable bulding management requires significant changes. Products and materials should either remain in use or be recycled effectively. The building industry must adopt a new model for designing, renovating, and dismantling buildings to minimize waste.The INBUILT project proposes ten innovative products with low carbon footprints. It's (BIM) digital platform is recognized as a key driver for improving transparency, reducing costs, and promoting the efficient reuse of resources. The purpose will be to calculate the current and future environmental, economic & social impacts of a construction project thanks to the development of a digital tool to enable the calculation of the building`s, components and materials circularity performance and short-term environmental and economic impacts. All technologies and products focus on using and reusing local resources and waste to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of buildings. INBUILT emphasizes locally sourced bio/and geo-based materials, as well as recycled products, suitable for both new constructions and the renovation of existing buildings. INBUILT aims to revitalize the building and construction sector through:
-decarbonization and a sustainability transition across all stakeholders in the value chain
-demonstrating the profitability and job creation potential of sustainable and circular business models
-showcasing industrialization potential, economies of scale, and applicability to a significant portion of the EU building stock and infrastructure, as well as new construction methods
-developing strategies and tools to adapt skills, culture, and ways of working to the demands of sustainability
The model presented in INBUILT fully integrates circular economy principles, keeping products in use and safeguarding the climate.

Arbeit, die ab Beginn des Projekts bis zum Ende des durch den Bericht erfassten Berichtszeitraums geleistet wurde, und die wichtigsten bis dahin erzielten Ergebnisse

The activities performed during the 18 months of the project include the following:
Work Package 1, which covers project coordination plan, ethics management plan, risk management plan, and data management—has been completed and implemented.
Work Package 2 &3
The 10 Innovative bio/geo-sourced, reused & recycled-based products have been designed, specified, and tested.
Work Package 4
Work Package 5
Work Package 6 - Demonstration has started with Task 6.1: Demo sites monitoring plan. The implementation plan describes the roles and responsibilities of partners and third parties, demonstration timeline, performance, and data collection.
To reach TRL7, four real-scale demonstration buildings will be monitored:

Fortschritte, die über den aktuellen Stand der Technik hinausgehen und voraussichtliche potenzielle Auswirkungen (einschließlich der bis dato erzielten sozioökonomischen Auswirkungen und weiter gefassten gesellschaftlichen Auswirkungen des Projekts)

Impacts & Results :increased decarbonisation of the building stock by using a high percentage of bio/geo-sourced materials; higher building’s performance, better quality of preserving climate and environment as the toxicity of construction materials in our homes is a serious issue.
The target groups identified are going to be affected by the project results at different scales. The level of involvement in the consortium and the estimated components of the target groups reached during the project condition the actual effects achieved. 9 companies from the construction sector are involved in the project as full partners. Each company has several suppliers, subcontractors, architects, engineers that will be reached by the project through different expected events to be organised obtaining a very relevant scale of influence in the sector. The benefits for the sector can be summarized as new approaches, based on the full circular economy, that will lead to more new market opportunities. More than 200 investors will be reached by dissemination and communication (D&C) activities. Residents/End-users/Owners: The Demo buildings residents, employees, or owners will act as end-users directly benefited by the project, whose direct benefits will better comfort (as shown by several KPIs), very substantial energy consumption reduction that will lead on lower energy costs and a direct benefit on the better air quality and healthier environment. NGOs and representatives of the Civil Society: more than 150 representatives will be reached through D&C actions.
