Developing Construction
Our operation and competitive advantage are based on utilizing knowledge through research. We continuously develop our own know-how by carrying out research and publishing new data and results on the methods and models within the field of construction.
We do this because we want to create our clients more value and assets by bringing them the most profitable knowledge that is based on actual research results. Together, we bring these research results into practice.
We communicate actively with the Finnish and international research organizations for example in Aalto University, Tampere University, Technische Universität München, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Shibaura Institute of Technology and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Within the last decade, we have carried out over 500 research and development projects, published international scientific articles, and conducted several doctoral and master’s theses among our other academic activities.
Below we have listed some of our publications in English and in Finnish.
