Ten more projects have been launched at Building 4.0 CRC, with close to 30 projects now active.

From automated tracking of construction materials, to demystifying volumetric construction, computational design and optimisation tools, and prefab housing solutions for bushfire & disaster relief, the CRC team is working hard to deliver a better building industry for the future.

Every project aligns with the CRC’s mission, to carry out research and development activities that lead to tangible benefits for the building industry and the broader community.

“We aim to lead industry change by leveraging the latest technologies, new thinking, and expert collaboration between our best-in-class partner organisations,” said Ms Megan King, Building 4.0 CRC’s Projects Officer.
