Holz, Lehm und ein digitales Ökosystem für eine zukunftsfähige Bauwirtschaft
Die gängigen Materialien und Praktiken in der Schweizer Bauwirtschaft sind klimaschädlich, ressourcenintensiv und erzeugen viel Abfall. An der ETH Zürich sind zwei Flagship-Projekte von Innosuisse gestartet, um das Schweizer Bauwesen nachhaltig zu transformieren: Während «Swircular» das Fundament für eine zirkuläre Bauwirtschaft legt, ermöglicht «Think Earth» regeneratives Bauen mit More

CAS ETH in Regenerative Materials: Essentials
Registration until 15 October 2023. The CAS essentials (January 2024 to June 2024) offers knowledge and skills to question our conventional construction techniques and promote regenerative materials from resource extraction to end of life of the building materials, through a territorial approach grounded in Switzerland and neighbouring countries.
Prof. Dr. Guillaume Habert promoted to Full Professor of Sustainable Construction
Professor Guillaume Habert (*1977), currently Associate Professor at ETH Zurich, as Full Professor of Sustainable Construction in the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering. Guillaume Habert’s research focuses on the sustainability of buildings and infrastructures. His aim is to implement sustainable construction practices using innovative building techniques More

Think regenerative!
It is time to go beyond sustainability. Alternative solutions out of local resources such as earth, bio-based, and reused materials are emerging all over the world and are triggering regenerative output, thanks to their capacity to contribute to the restoration and improvement of the surrounding natural and social environment. However, they are not widespread in the construction sector due to a lack of information on the side of decision-makers and a lack of competence on the side of practitioners.
The MAS/CAS ETH in Regenerative Materials, international ETH training programmes launched by the Chair of Sustainable Construction of the ETH Zurich, aim to tackle this problem. These teachings offer knowledge and skills to question our conventional construction techniques and to promote regenerative materials from resource extraction to construction site, operation, and end-of-life of the building materials, starting from the preliminary phase of the construction programme.
