Virtual Construction Incubator
Summary: The Capacity-building in Emerging Applied
Building and Construction Technologies Program has created a multi-faceted
Virtual Applied Technologies Incubator within it facilities.
The incubator is multi-faceted in nature through its
various functions which includes:
applied research, computer laboratory, emerging technologies display
gallery, skilled-trades workshop, prototype demonstrations laboratory,
simulation studio, reference library and high-tech education and training
classrooms.
The primary purpose of the incubator is
to present and display very complex information about emerging technologies
in ways that motivate, stimulate learning and application.

Details:
The Emerging Applied Building and Construction
Technologies (EABCT) display gallery consists of five rooms which
display actual working models of the technologies, tools, techniques,
products and interactive demonstration kits illustrative of practical
applications in the built environment.
In addition to being interactive from an educational
and training perspective, it is also contextual and experimental in its
approach to learning and capacity-building.
The EABCT display gallery is an educational interactive
array of energy efficient, environmentally-friendly, sustainable and
innovative technologies which can be applied in various building types
within the built environments.
