Abstract: The processing of cement-based building materials is the technological core in construction and maintenance of structures. However, there is still lack of a scientific framework for mastering rheology-based processes. This leads to faults in structures and low efficiency of construction, but it is also a major obstacle for developing novel construction technologies, such as 3D printing with concrete. The main reason behind the shortcomings of the rheological framework is the extremely high complexity of the cementitious systems. The goal of the Priority Program SPP 2005 of German Research Foundation (DFG) is to ascertain and describe the scientific fundamentals for understanding and consecutively designing rheology-based construction processes as well as for developing innovative, sustainable building materials and associated pioneering processing technologies.
