Sustainability: Gaining a Greater Importance for Our Customers
The FOOTPRINT of the Building Industry

Buildings and construction account for
| 36% of global final energy use and | 39% of energy-related CO2 emissions
During the construction phase
| 10% of materials are wasted | 30% of construction is rework
In 90% of all projects, time or cost overruns occur.

Resource Saving Potentials Along the Construction Lifecycle

Digital building before physical building reduces rework in the building process to a minimum.
Precise planning saves large amounts of concrete, steel, sand, e.g. 90.000m³ of concrete in the building of Gotthard Base Tunnel, Switzerland.
Digital structural analysis solutions optimize the use of materials.
With digital solutions, the technical building equipment can also be dimensioned exactly.
On the construction site, the use of digital solutions can save up to 90% of paper.
Integrated Workplace Management Systems (IWMS) allow control of heating, ventilation and lighting.
The actual need for office space is measured only the space that is needed is planned and built.
