The construction site of the future
CEOs and high-level executives of established construction companies and start-ups explain how they imagine the construction site of the future will look like.
It is expected that a part of construction works moves to pre-fabrication factories. Standardised modules will be installed afterwards on-site. A common believe is that new technologies like 3D-printing, autonomous vehicles and robots will take over a part of the tasks on-site.
