BLE Science Day am Pop-up Campus der RWTH Aachen

Prof. i.V. Christoph Klanten und Prof. Petra Riegler-Floors präsentieren die Ergebnisse der Session „Built-as-Resource Solutions“ und diskutieren über Verbindungen und Synergien mit den anderen Sessions beim BLE Wissenschaftstag an der RWTH Aachen

„The Science Day 2022 for the growth area ‘Built and Lived Environment’ aims to foster inter- und transdisciplinary exchange in relation to urgently needed solutions for a livable future of cities and human settlements. In times of multiple and accelerating trends that are aggravated by drivers such as climate change, individualization, digitalization as well as energy or mobility transitions, the built and lived environment must adapt, reorient and profoundly restructure to enhance sustainability and resilience. The current ‘full world’ of existing settlements and infrastructures such as in Western Europe requires transition processes for which solutions are context-specific, ‘error-friendly’ or even self-repairing. Simultaneously, these solutions need to be sensitive to the shifts as well as interrelations of different spatial scales – from the component to the construction site, and up to the district, city, or regional scales. Meanwhile, the scarcity of material resources as well as habitable and productive land are, to some extent, driving innovation. More specifically, this scarcity inspires and stimulates close interplay between spatial, technological, and social innovation. The potential and interwoven innovation can generate possible solutions that cannot be envisaged as one-time responses. Rather, these solutions are better conceived as a set of interventions intended to carefully anticipate change that is specific and systemic. Setting forth in developing these solutions is both an opportunity and challenge in identifying and improving factors that build and enhance capacities to be ‘mutual adaptive’. In other words, these are solutions with which users might interact; these are solutions that might reflexively (re)acting over time. Whether these solutions are anchored with orientations towards urban health, carbon neutrality, climate resiliency, resource efficiency and value, permeating flexibility, BLE is a moment for us to come together and frame how we solve.



BLE focuses on five ‘mutual adaptive solutions’:
Urban Health Solutions | Carbon Sink Solutions & Materials | Built-as-Resource Solutions | 
Carbon Climate Change Adaptation | Agile Infrastructure Solutions“
