In aerospace engineering and in the wind park sector, multiaxial structures have long been established as textile reinforcement material. The automobile industry, too, is increasingly demanding...
In December 2020, the extension of the U5 subway line went into service in Berlin. Departing from Hönow, the U5 no longer terminates at Alexanderplatz but continues to Hauptbahnhof (Berlin Main...
Additive production processes provide ample design freedom in combination with utmost precision and a high degree of automation, which is why they may potentially become the key technology in the...
Securing urban spaces is one of the most important municipal tasks and is preferably realized by means of mobile vehicle barriers that often resemble a fortress. The newly developed Blockmaxx barrier...
Building fast and in a resource-efficient manner is a challenge of our times. It is imperative to minimize disruptions in infrastructure and CO2 emissions because of construction activities. In the...
The advantages of precast concrete elements known from industrial construction can also be successfully used in high-rise buildings. Completed projects such as the “Tanzende Türme” in Hamburg or the...
Installing conventional reinforcement is expensive and time-consuming. This process step is eliminated by using steel fiber reinforced concrete. However, in general, fibers are not used as the only...
Steel fiber reinforced concretes have an enormous potential due to the elimination of labor-intensive and time-consuming reinforcement works. In addition to this, steel fiber reinforced concretes...
Pre-applied bonded membranes are used as additional or precautionary waterproofing measures for waterproof concrete structures. They can be used especially for geometrically complex, constrained...
The existing knowledge of the bond behavior of reinforced concrete cannot be transferred “as is” to textile-reinforced structures. The bond between textile reinforcement and concrete is dependent on...
