FORA de PORTAS Engenharia Civil à Mostra

Since 2011, as part of the actions to promote Civil Engineering, FEUP Civil Engineering Department has been calling on the community to look at the technology that is behind the built environment. Together with the authors, architects and engineers, a vast and a conference is made to reveall the technological issues addressed. Various disciplines areas of constriction are discussed: from bridge and building structures, rehabilitation, constructive and energy efficiency, water supply and wastewater treatment, to geotechnics. In each event, a Sebenta d' Obra is produced summarising the intervention process, from the project or diagnosis to the completion of the work. This initiative is a partnership between DEC/FEUP with Porto Innovation Hub of Porto Digital, GAIurb and Reitoria of UP, with the support of OASRN, OE and Casa da Arquitetura
