NTNU and SINTEF invites you to participate in this unique event;
a conference about construction research and practice with
a Nordic perspective. Our main goal is to present up-to-date
research and refl ections from practice, and to encourage a dialogue
between researchers and practitioners in the construction
industry.

Focus
The conference will focus on green urbanisation. Urbanisation
is meant in a wide perspective. "Green" relates to the consequences
for construction organisation and economy, from
ongoing development, as well as the industry's ambitions for the
future. We encourage discussion of current trends in a multidiscipline
perspective, including a social, environmental, economic,
organisational and technological perspective.

Why should you participate?
The conference is targeted at practitioners, researchers,
teachers and postgraduate students within all aspects of the
built environment. The conference will have a special focus on
construction economy and organisation with a Nordic perspective.
Patrticipants from non-Nordic countries and presentations
on related topics are welcome, and should challenge or contrast
the Nordic dimension for deeper discussions.

Time and Venue
The conference starts Wednesday 12 June 2013 and finishes Friday 14 June 2013. The conference is located at NTNU Gløshaugen campus in Trondheim.
