DEKAST

Project Title: Research and innovation for the decarbonization of construction activities through low-emission construction processes and materials in the circular economy

Acronym: DEKAST

Project duration: 01/2025 - 08/2026 (20 months)

Project code: 09I04-03-V02-00051

Annotation:

The DEKAST project focuses on research and innovation in the field of low-carbon construction materials, processes, and buildings. Its primary objective is to provide stakeholders across the construction sector with recommendations for decarbonizing their operations and transitioning to a circular economy - supported by a proposed portfolio of low-emission construction materials and processes, as well as the necessary investments and other essential changes required within the sector.

Deliverables:

1.Publication – construction materials 📄

2.Innovative low-carbon construction materials 📄

3.Publication – construction process 📄

4.Innovative construction process concept 📄
