stimulating indoor environment for all 2.
Underground innovative construction
technologies 3. New technologies, concepts and
high tech materials for efficient and clean
buildings 4. Reduce environmental and man-made
impacts of build environment and cities 5.
Sustainable management of transports and
utilities networks 6. A living cultural heritage
for an attractive Europe 7. Improve safety and
security within the construction sector 8. New
integrated processes for the construction
sector 9. High added value construction materials
11
A living cultural heritage for an attractive
Europe
Reaching the European citizen involvement through
the development of an integrated approach to the
natural and man-made environment to maintain
natural resources improve quality of life and
social cohesion and to create a sustainable
balance between cultural heritage and economic
benefits.
12
A living cultural heritage for an attractive
Europe

• Foreseeing and managing changes through
• Development of models for disaster prevention
  and risk management in historic materials and
  structures.
• Prediction of long-term behaviour of materials
  and structure in order to establish reliable
  maintenance plans.
• Development of understanding of mechanisms of
  degradation
• Introduction of the principles of rational use
  of energy in planning and execution of
  interventions as well as in management of
  heritage sites and buildings.

13
A living cultural heritage for an attractive
Europe

• Developing assessments and controls
• Integrated quality control system
• Science of monitoring from on-site applied
  technologies to the satellite technologies to
  assess harming processes and their consequences.

14
A living cultural heritage for an attractive
Europe

• Innovating in the creation of materials and
  structural components for cultural heritage
• Materials adapted to better preservation of
  historic materials applying nano and other
  emerging technologies.
• Understanding the historic materials and
  technologies
• Introduction of innovative and low intrusive
  intervention techniques including introduction of
  replicable additional or supplemental structural
  components

15
A living cultural heritage for an attractive
Europe

• Preserving urban and built environment
• Understanding of thematic and spatial governance
  interactions in cities.
• Development of innovative integrated analysis
  and planning mechanism taking into account
  climate and demographic changes.
