Construction Research Centre

The Construction Research Centre is a gateway to the future, a place where we can train highly qualified personnel with leading-edge tools. Our research projects achieve economic stimulus by helping companies innovate, benefiting all parties involved as well as the community at large.

We continue to generate economic stimulus by helping enterprises in need while also supporting learners as they evolve into skilled professionals. Our program also leverages the construction industry, improving evidence-based decision making in building design, developing collaboration tools to better connect people in the industry, and improving process efficiency.

“When I came to Canada, I chose Algonquin College because they had a research department. I became the first ARI volunteer. I had done a thesis in 3D printing so the Lebreton Flats proposal was a perfect collaboration. There were still a lot of unknowns in the centre and they were still figuring out the new printers so I brought that knowledge in.”
