Innovaltive Construction Methods

Tradition is an important aspect in the entire construction industry. After all, the saying goes: "Every building is unique". That's why people like to rely on tried and tested construction methods. Nevertheless, it would not be good if society did not take advantage of the omnipresent technical progress, especially in the building industry. For this reason, we are engaged in the development of new construction methods, which often goes hand in hand with the use of "young" building materials.

We work with different fibre materials (carbon, basalt) for thin-walled concrete components, connect load-bearing glass with concrete and steel, or work on structural forms for buildings made of Ultra High Performance Concrete (working area UHPC). Other examples of our activities in this field are the development of a digital manufacturing process for free-form shell structures made of precast concrete elements or the work on composite structures made of geopolymer concrete and normal concrete for use in the highly corrosive environment of sewage systems. Currently, the potential of 3D printing for the production of concrete components is being researched.
