IPC2026 will focus on pivotal themes that are shaping the future of a low-carbon built environment. We invite submissions that present new insights, innovative research findings, and practical case studies aligned with these themes.

1

Artificial Intelligence in Construction

Exploring AI-driven solutions for design, planning, monitoring, and optimisation across the construction lifecycle.

2

Innovative Technologies in Construction Delivery

Advances in robotics, automation, digital twins, IoT, and other emerging technologies transforming construction delivery.

3

Decarbonised and Reusable Building Materials

Research into low-carbon materials, recycled aggregates, bio-based products, and material reuse strategies.

4

Operational Emissions Reduction

Strategies and technologies for reducing energy consumption and operational carbon in the built environment.

5

Prefabrication and Modular Construction

Industrialised building systems, off-site manufacturing, and modular approaches to improve quality and efficiency.

6

Sustainable Construction Policy and Circular Economy Practices

Policy frameworks, regulations, and circular economy models driving sustainability in construction.

7

Decarbonising Data Centre Infrastructure

Innovative approaches to designing, constructing, and operating low-carbon data centre facilities.
