Welcome to the Construction Futures
Construction Futures is an underpinning research theme within the School of Architecture and Built Environment. The research in this area cuts across all of the School disciplines including Architecture, Built Environment, Civil Engineering and Geography.
Our work shapes and informs decisions, policy and practice, and enhances societal impact globally. Our research findings have led to change in organisational practice, information management systems, and the development of Smart Cities. Going forward, we will build on this to develop safe and sustainable improvement to the Built Environment.
