On 3 October 2018 Building Network and the Dutch concrete supplier BYLDIS will host BYLDIS PREFAB REALITY SYMPOSIUM 2018 which is taking place at Danish Architecture Center in BLOX in Copenhagen.
The symposium, to be held in English, targets Scandinavian clients, developers, architects and other advisors, who are invited to meet with Danish and international experts to share knowledge and experiences in the design of high-rise buildings and prefab construction. There will be ample opportunities to network and speak individually with keynote speakers and participants about the latest trends and new technology in prefab construction.
Among the presenters is Architect Diederik Dam of Dam & Partners Architecten, which are behind various iconic buildings in Holland. Dam will use two exciting buildings, Hourglass in Amsterdam and the highest building in Benelux, Zalmhaven Tower, in Rotterdam, to discuss experiences with prefab construction, but also how quality, innovation and a unique design draw attention and create excitement.
Han Blom, Dutch concrete supplier BYLDIS’ representative in Denmark, will then discuss innovative solutions and new design freedom in precast concrete products, but also how these products have allowed BYLDIS to erect 1,750 apartments and 20,000 m2 of open-plan office space in record time on London City Island, which, today, is a spectacular landmark in London’s river landscape.
The principal and director of the American engineering giant Thornton Tomasetti’s UK office, Les Postawa, will demonstrate how to emphasise design using simple techniques and elegant solutions. Thornton Tomasetti is world-renowned for its work with the design of spectacular high-rise buildings and skyscrapers, one of which is the world’s hitherto tallest building, Jeddah Tower, which will be more than one kilometer tall and is under construction in Saudi Arabia. Postawa will also talk about sustainability and the environmental benefits of prefabricated buildings.
Partner and architect Mads Kaltoft of Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects, one of Scandinavia’s most recognised architectural firms, will discuss experiences with designing skyscrapers using prefabricated facades. Kaltoft will also talk about the challenges encountered when drawing the majestic Dahlerup Tower in Carlsberg City, in addition to how Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects is working to achieve sustainability certification for construction of a 188-meter-tall office tower in Warsaw’s financial district.
The symposium will conclude with the opportunity to network and speak individually with the speakers and other participants. Afterwards, wine, beer and snacks will be served on the rooftop terrace at BLOX.
