Urbanisering med växande och tätare städer i kombination med klimatförändring som förväntas kunna ge extremare väder kräver ett smart markanvändande där flera funktioner kan uppfyllas på samma yta. Ett exempel på en multifunktionell anläggning är skelettjordskonstruktioner som har en bärförmåga som hanterar ovanliggande laster, skapar gynnsamma förhållanden för träd och hanterar dagvatten med reniUrbanization with growing and denser cities in combination with climate change that is expected to produce more extreme weather requires a smart land use where several functions can be fulfilled on the same surface. An example of a multifunctional facility is structural soil that have a bearing capacity to handle loads, create favorable conditions for trees and handle stormwater with purification
