iBuilt is a research group based at ISEP, aiming to address the new challenges of the construction industry, currently shaped by the digital transition and the adoption of technologies associated with Construction 4.0. This paradigm is deeply transforming the sector by promoting digital solutions that enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and improve sustainability.
Through the integration of digital methodologies across the different construction phases, iBuilt contributes to aligning civil engineering with the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in terms of safety, energy efficiency, and climate change adaptation.
The creation of iBuilt positions ISEP as a reference in the field of digital construction, especially at a time when this sector is gaining increasing relevance under initiatives such as the Portuguese Government’s National Digital Strategy and the European Union’s Digital Decade.
