The Emmedue Building System: an alternative system

An innovative building system unique in the world

From primitive caves and tents to wooden structures of the Paleolithic age, passing through the first architectures in stone and brick materials, and finally to the reinforced concrete building. Humankind has been in constant search for new building solutions and, of course, the choice of architectural materials originate from several factors:

· functional goals
· resource availability
· climate

· traditions
· production reasons
· constructive knowledge

Yet, the building sector has not always succeeded in promoting technological innovation. This is due to slow adaptation to innovation of architecture design, because building traditions and experience tend to root both techniques and materials. Moreover, for a long time there has been a greater concern for the symbolic aesthetic finishes, yet not for the constructive finishes.

Despite this, Emmedue was able to propose a new Building System alternative to traditional systems. The Emmedue Advanced Building System is an earthquake-proof building system unique in the world, innovative in its concept but with a successful history of over 35 years.
The Emmedue Advanced Building System appears to be of significant value, especially, in communities where the need for the development of major social housing projects, public and private buildings prevails.

The System is able to combine the cost-effectiveness and logistics efficiency of the building process, guaranteeing high quality standards and an incomparable environmental comfort. The earthquake-resistant and thermo-acoustic performance, durability, environmental comfort and energy efficiency of Emmedue buildings are certified and guaranteed at an international level:
