FENESTRATION BAU China: Highlights from the Supporting Program

FENESTRATION BAU China (FBC), which will take place in Beijing from October 31 to November 2, 2018, will not only attract visitors with a wide range of building materials, construction IT, facades, windows and doors as well as Prefabrication Materials & Green Building and Energy Efficient & Smart Solutions/BIM.

The specialized supporting program will also shed light on the future of the industry and pick up on brand-new topics—thus offering a crucial added value for exhibitors and visitors.

Fenestration Days China

It is well worth traveling to Beijing two days in advance, because the Fenestration Days China will already be taking place in the run-up to FBC, on October 29 and 30. This year, the established platform for the latest technologies and trends relating to windows and doors will focus on ‘Green, Safe and Intelligent—New Patterns of Fenestration Development in the Era of Industrialization’.

Within the four thematic modules—Green Fenestration Trends and High Performance, Fenestration Intelligence and Intelligent Manufacturing, Fenestration Safety and Solutions as well as Case Studies—national and international experts will present innovative models and solutions for window and door systems.

BAU Congress China

Over the course of three days, BAU Congress China (BCC) will offer practice-oriented solutions for the Chinese construction industry. From October 31 to November 1, renowned national and international speakers from the architectural world will provide insights into exciting projects and thus offer new stimuli for the participants.

Under the central theme “The Future of Building for China”, this year’s BCC is divided into five focus topics: ‘The Big Picture—Tomorrow’s Urban Design, Exemplary Projects’, ‘Smart Buildings—Simple Cities’, ‘Young Independent Architects—Human Scale Architecture’, ‘Future Building Technology: Energy, Process, and Building’ and ‘Cutting Edge Super Projects for China’.

The following speakers, among others, have already confirmed their participation: Prof. Liu Wan (Tsinghua University), Kjetil Thorsen (Snøhetta), Satoshi Ohashi (Zaha Hadid Architects), Prof. Dr.-Ing. Gunnar Grün (Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics IBP), Philip F. Yuan (Tongji University), Wolfgang Frey (Frey Architekten Group/WFP Architekten), Stephan Schütz (gmp architects) sowie Martin Reuter (Ingenhoven Architects) und Ziyu Zhuang (RSAA).
