Sommario/riassunto

The Department of Building Technology at the Faculty of Architecture at TU Delft studies and develops cardboard as a potential building material on a comprehensive basis. An exploratory phase from 2003 to 2005 was concluded by an international symposium. This title comprises the report on that symposium.
