ISCCGF - ZAGREB 2024

On November 21, 2024, the second International Scientific Conference on Contemporary Glass Facades – Zagreb 2024 was held at the Pullman Hotel, City Island, Buzin, Zagreb. The event was jointly organized by the Faculty of Architecture, University of Zagreb and the company KFK d.o.o. The Conference represents a continuation of the successful collaboration between a scientific institution and a private company.

 The aim of the Conference was to bring together experts from the scientific, research and business sectors to present the latest developments in construction, architecture, technology, design, engineering, energy efficiency, and the future of glazed facades. Architects, engineers, designers, stakeholders and researchers will exchange experiences and ideas in the field of the Conference's topics.

The Conference was divided into two parts. The first part featured the presentation of the project Development of a double facade with a hermetically sealed cavity (H-CCF),  implemented by the company KFK d.o.o. in cooperation with the Faculty of Architecture, University of Zagreb as a scientific partner. The project was presented by Prof. Zoran Veršić, Ph.D. on behalf of the Faculty of Architecture, and by Ivica Kušević, Ph.D. on behalf of the company KFK d.o.o. Additionally, companies KFK d.o.o., Hydro Building Systems Croatia, d.o.o., Alukönigstahl d.o.o. and AGC Flat Glass Czech, a.s. presented innovations and market trends in the field of production and manufacture of glazed facades and related equipment. In the second part, scientists from various countries presented a wide range of topics related to glazed facades. 

The extremely rich program attracted more than 100 participants in the hall. A Conference Proceedings volume, featuring internationally reviewed scientific papers, was also published. The Conference program, Proceedings, photos, and additional information are available on the Conference website.

21.11.2024. u Hotelu Pullman, City Island, Buzin, Zagreb održana je, druga po redu, međunarodna znanstvena konferencija o suvremenim ostakljenim pročeljima: International Scientific Conference on Contemporary Glass Facades – Zagreb 2024 u organizaciji Arhitektonskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu i tvrtke KFK d.o.o. Konferencija predstavlja nastavak uspješne suradnje znanstvene institucije i tvrtke iz gospodarskog sektora.

Cilj konferencije je bio okupiti stručnjake iz znanstvenog, istraživačkog i gospodarskog sektora u svrhu predstavljanja novosti iz svijeta graditeljstva, arhitekture, tehnologije, dizajna, konstrukcija, energetske učinkovitosti i budućnosti ostakljenih pročelja. Arhitekti, inženjeri, dizajneri, gospodarstvenici i znanstvenici razmijenili su iskustva i ideje u području tema konferencije.

Konferencija je bila podijeljenja u dvije cjeline. U prvom djelu konferencije prezentiran je projekt Razvoj dvostruke fasade s hermetički zatvorenom šupljinom (H-CCF) kojeg su proveli tvrtka KFK, d.o.o. u suradnji s Arhitektonskim fakultetom Sveučilišta u Zagrebu kao znanstvenim partnerom. Projekt je u ime AF-a prezentirao prof. dr. sc. Zoran Veršić, a u ime tvrtke KFK d.o.o., dr. sc. Ivica Kušević. Tvrtke KFK d.o.o., Hydro Building Systems Croatia, d.o.o., Alukönigstahl d.o.o. i AGC Flat Glass Czech, a.s. predstavili su inovacije i trendove na tržištu u području proizvodnje i izrade ostakljenih pročelja i prateće opreme. U drugom su dijelu znanstvenici iz različitih zemalja predstavili širok spektar tema vezanih uz ostakljena pročelja. 

Izuzetno bogat program u dvorani je pratilo više od 100 sudionika. U sklopu Konferencije objavljen je i Zbornik međunarodno recenziranih znanstvenih radova. Program Konferencije, Zbornik i fotografije te ostale informacije nalaze se na web stranici konferencije.
