FRISSBE

Fire resilience is a crucial element of building sustainability, especially with the increasing use of new construction materials and technologies. Slovenia’s National Building and Civil Engineering Institute (ZAG) will boost its practice in this field. The EU-funded FRISSBE (Fire-safe Sustainable Built Environment) project will attract and maintain high-quality human resources under the direction of the ERA Chair holder. The project will lead to lasting, sustainable structural changes to achieve excellence in the field of fire-safe sustainable built environments and modify the institute’s research and innovation landscape. Moreover, the project will have regional impacts in terms of research, education, and engineering. The long-term sustainability of the ERA Chair will be achieved by combining national and EU research and innovation funding with industry funded research and development.
