Company History
A research lineage reaching back to 1953, and a company founded in 1987 among China's first national pilot enterprises — the foundation behind today's research-led engineering group.
Historical development
From building research to a national engineering group
CBTGC grew out of one of China's foremost building-research institutions and was established as a market-facing enterprise during the country's project-management reforms. Today it operates as the public-facing engineering arm of the China Academy of Building Research (CABR) — "one team under two brands".
1953
Research lineage begins
The Department of Building Engineering is established — the start of the building-research lineage that becomes the China Academy of Building Research.
1956
Academy of Building Research
The research base is consolidated as the Academy of Building Research, deepening national capability in building science.
1979
China Academy of Building Research (CABR)
The institution becomes the China Academy of Building Research — China's central building-research body.
1987
The company is founded
On 28 October 1987, five central government bodies designate the first batch of pilot enterprises to promote the "Lubuge" project-management approach. As one of China's first 18 pilot enterprises, the company is established on 17 December 1987 to help reform the construction-management system.
2000
From institute to enterprise
The scientific-research institution is transformed into a technology-oriented enterprise, combining research depth with commercial project delivery.
2003
China Building Technique Group Co., Ltd.
Following restructuring, the enterprise is renamed China Building Technique Group Co., Ltd. (CBTGC).
2017
CABR corporatisation completed
The China Academy of Building Research completes its corporatisation and restructuring as China Academy of Building Research Co., Ltd.
