Research Scope of TBTC

In response to climate change and frequent disasters, develop wind resistance, earthquake resistance, and soil liquefaction prevention and control engineering technologies;
In response to the goals of energy conservation and carbon reduction, develop ventilation, passive energy conservation, recycling, green energy technology and information platforms;
Cooperate with industrial innovation and upgrading to develop electric energy storage systems, sustainable building operations, and demolition and reuse;
Integrate the seismic-resistant, energy-saving renovation and urban renewal plans of existing buildings to help the government accelerate the promotion of social housing and implement urban renewal policies and net-zero carbon emission goals.
