TopoForm Project
TopoForm Project
Concrete is a key enabler for creating an affordable, inclusive and climate-resilient built environment.
However, the use of concrete contributes a massive 8% of global GHG emissions. Topology Optimisation offers a pathway to reduce emissions now, by using up to 70% less concrete to achieve the same structural performance, while unlocking design innovation. Yet, contractors typically opt for more affordable and predictable rectangular designs that require only standard formwork (i.e. moulds) panels, resulting in a massive overuse of concrete.
The TopoForm system is revolutionising global concrete construction by delivering specialty formwork at a radically lower price, much faster to assemble/disassemble on-site and upcyclable/recyclable through our proprietary take-back service.
