Technology infrastructure for the built environment

The testbed offers the development of materials for concrete 3D printing (both one- and two-component), design, prototyping and validation in connection with other testbeds at RISE. The robot arm on a track enables the printing of objects with unique maximum dimensions of 9.5x3x3 meters.

The testbed addresses issues related to pipes and pipe systems for water and wastewater, heat and cooling, and gas. It is unique in Sweden and has a strong international position.

A test beds for evaluation of stormwater systems have been established at HSB Living Lab in Gothenburg. The testbed give technology providers the opportunity to test and evaluate their technical solutions for stormwater management in a natural environment. 

A test bed for evaluating different constructions' fire resistance using extensive equipment. World-leading flue gas treatment and mobile work platforms to facilitate customers' assembly contribute to sustainability. The furnaces can be controlled according to the toughest fire curves required by the market.

The testbed offers fire testing and evaluation of the fire properties of products in relation to requirements of markets or authorities around the world. Our concept is to, parallel to testing, conduct research and keep us updated on the latest in standardization work. This way of working enables us to offer high quality services in the area. 

The need for new infrastructure in the ground is increasing. Using the RISE test bed, you can calculate the material life and need for corrosion protection and maintenance for pilings, pylons, sheet walls, water and gas pipes that are subject to corrosion in the soil. We offer real-world testing, in five locations in the country with different soil

Thanks to it´s unique opportunities for flexible experimental setups, this facility can provide a wide variety of different possibilities for more effective fire tests.

Nationally unique. Highly contemporary and internationally competitive as it offers unique opportunities to test the entire building system in terms of weather and rain resistance. Evaluation of heat loss, radon transmission and risk of mold growth is also possible.

Nationally and internationally unique due to a broad collection of specialists in the field of simulation and modeling of materials and structures in fire.

The testbed is unique in a national perspective and has a strong position on the European market by covering the entire process from production to distribution and use of district heating and cooling.

A nationally unique resource for development of building systems and products. An established and complete building acoustic laboratory with qualified personnel, proven and structured work routines, and an emphasis on SMEs.

One of the largest large scale fire test halls in Europe. Modern smoke and water cleaning systems fulfill high environmentally sustainable requirements.

The testbed offers an internationally unique combination of powerful and versatile mechanical testing resources, advanced measurement methods, cutting-edge competence in computation and research resources.

The only facility in Sweden where research, testing, evaluation, damage investigations, calculations and certification are carried out in the field of materials for use in wet areas and water damage.

Internationally unique because it gathers the whole value chain from raw materials to fully developed product concepts.
