Large-format industrialization: Requirements, conditions, benefits

Wed 25 Mar | 13:00 - 14:00

Large-format industrialisation refers to the large-scale, automated and standardised production of large components, structures or products, with particular relevance in sectors such as construction (prefabricated) and industrial manufacturing (large-format 3D printing, heavy components). This strategy seeks to maximise efficiency and reduce costs by transferring construction or workshop processes to controlled industrial environments. Let’s analyze how to implement this model, where it is necessary to meet certain technical and logistical requirements, what are the conditions for its success and if the high volume of demand is sufficient, and if the reduction of deadlines (time), together with automation, reduces human errors, material waste (sustainability) and repair costs. They will be enough to affirm that large-format industrialization is essential for the evolution of construction towards a more sustainable model. efficient, competitive and sustainable?
