Canadian Government Funds $4M for Construction Technology Development

The Canadian government is providing more than $4 million federal funding for students and faculty members at Algonquin College and La Cite collegiale to develop new cutting-edge construction technology. The research could help develop mew pavement resistant to water erosion, produce infrared technology to measure where heat leaks out of homes and allow homebuyers to take 3D tours of homes before they are built. The funds will also help the colleges train new tradespeople as well as make the manufacturing of construction materials cheaper, quicker and of higher quality.
