This publication examines the development and application of carbon reinforced concrete as a highly load-bearing and corrosion-resistant building material. Emphasizing quality control in constructing carbon reinforced concrete components, especially...

This article presents a newly developed web application that enables engineers to accurately and efficiently determine spectral response accelerations and geological subsurface classes according to the new DIN EN 1998-1/NA:2023. The application is...

For centuries, traditional materials and construction techniques dominated Bulgarian palaces, churches, bridges and fortresses: wood, stone and masonry. An important change in construction methods and materials occurred after the liberation of...

At the Institute of Civil Engineering at Kiel University of Applied Sciences, CO2 balances of infrastructure projects have been carried out in recent years. While the results of the investigations regarding bridge structures have already been...

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is gaining increasing significance in the construction industry, offering substantial advantages for construction companies. Although BIM models are frequently created and used during the planning phase, they are...

The importance of redeveloping und reusing of existing buildings is constantly increasing and is based on economic, ecological and social aspects. Urban redensification can be implemented in a more sustainable and resource-efficient manner through...

Cylindrical steel shells are very popular due to their light weight, favourable fabrication costs and huge storage space. However, due to the high sensitivity of cylindrical thin-walled structural elements, it is essential to consider not only...

This paper presents and documents the measurement results of a series of shake table tests conducted on a two-story steel structure. The test structure was subjected to various dynamic excitations using a uniaxial shake table, including earthquake...

This paper presents findings from tests and numerical simulations conducted on plate girders with varying end post configurations. Although EN 1993–1–5:2024 provides design guidelines for both rigid and non-rigid end posts, it does not cover the...
