The Tabsolar concept intends to close a gap in terms of generating renewable energy using the building envelope. This design comprises slender, flow-through UHPC panels that are highly...
Concrete mixes include a wide range of different natural raw materials. The local conditions prevailing for natural raw material resources make any input material, and thus mix design and, in some...
A verification against fatigue must be provided for reinforced concrete floors under frequently recurring stress, e.g., due to forklift truck traffic. This also applies to structural components...
Constraint forces occurring in reinforced-concrete members are often difficult to determine. This particularly applies to reinforced-concrete floor slabs in multi-story building construction, which...
Residual quantities of fresh concrete are constantly accumulating in ready-mixed concrete and precast concrete plants; these residuals are often treated in fresh concrete recycling systems. These only...
Additive manufacture (AM) and/or 3D printing with concrete represents a highly innovative and future-oriented production technology for the construction industry. For one, linkage with modern...
In the context of mitigating climate change, one of the key demands is to reduce the CO2 emissions generated in the production of cement and the concrete containing it. However, since the process of...
The construction methods of staircases for outdoor applications fundamentally differ from those for indoor applications. In contrast to stairs in buildings which have to be designed and dimensioned in...
