ECOLOGICAL CHALLENGE ENVIRONMENT & RESOURCES If we continue our lifestyle as before, latest 2030 we will need two planets to keep up our human demands for goods and services. If 5 billion humans would copy our western lifestyle we would need more than 2 additional planets for supply! Source: Prof. Dr. Schmidt-Bleek, Wuppertal-Institut
FUTURE IS URBAN More than half of humanity now lives in cities - and that figure will likely reach 75% by 2050. Source: National Nations
INFRASTRUCTURE UNSUSTAINABLE PATTERNS
BUILDING IS RESOURCE INTENSIVE AND COMPLEX The building industry is worldwide responsible for: 40% consumption of resources 1) 25% - 40% consumption of energy 1) 30% - 40% emission of greenhouse gas 1) 30% - 40% of solid waste generation 1) 60% of the transports 2 ) 1) Source: UNEP SBCI United Nations Environment Programme 2) ton kilometres
CONSERVATIVE BUILDING INDUSTRY most part manual manufactured very complex long execution of construction works high consumption of energy and resources high rise buildings are exclusive of steel and RCC

VARIETY TOWERS
MID-RISE BUILDING
SECRUITY EARTHQUAKE Essential higher earthquake protection 50% weight saving high short time strength flexible (non rigid) connections
SECRUITY FIRE PROTECTION High fire-protection using of sprinkler systems using of fire alarm system using of wood as carrying parts (keeps the strength by heat) steel each floor sealing (composite reinforced concrete/timber slab) considering of high protection target mineral construction (reinforced concrete) up to 9,0 m height of construction

... verbrauchen 80% der vorhandenen Ressourcen. Um 1800 lebten nur etwa 25% der Bevölkerung in Städten und rund 75% auf dem Land. 2008 waren es bereits über 50% und laut Prognosen der Vereinten Nationen werden im Jahr 2050 über 75% der aller Erdbürger in Städten leben. We are responsible for the future. The future starts now!
