Construction Management and Building Technology

Peab and Luleå University of Technology (Division of Industrialized and Sustainable Construction) have initiated a collaboration in systematized and sustainable construction. In this way, Peab can benefit from the latest research in its work, while LTU gets the opportunity to test its research in practice. The goal is to increase efficiency in the industry and to create more sustainable construction.
