Automating Concrete Construction: Sustainable Social ...
The construction industry is a major source of carbon, and the main culprit is concrete. In addition, productivity for the construction sector is poor, and concrete construction in particular is labour intensive, slow, and costly. This paper introduces ongoing research addressing these two fundamental issues.

ACORN
The primary objective of ACORN is to drive acceptance of a new culture in the construction industry. One that embraces the concept of using enough material - and no more - in order to enhance sector-wide sustainability and productivity. We will achieve this by fusing digital and physical realms, culminating in a prototype structure.
