This qualitative, exploratory case study investigates the integration of the 5D BIM methodology into the work processes of cost planning, cost estimating, and cost management. It considers the context of the German construction industry as well as a...

This paper presents the development and application of an efficient numerical method for realistic vibration prediction of railway bridges under high-speed traffic. The main motivation is the code-based limitation of bridge accelerations to ensure...

This study systematically investigates the high-temperature behaviour of concretes with varying proportions of recycled aggregate. The basis is formed by the requirements valid in Germany for recycled aggregates in accordance with EN 12620 [1], as...

The German guidelines for the mechanistic design of asphalt pavements, RDO Asphalt, enable material-optimized design based on mechanistic, empirical methods. However, the accuracy of the method depends largely on the precise recording and modeling...

Train passages in high-speed rail traffic impose dynamic loads on bridge structures and often represent the critical design criterion. The resulting vibrations are limited in standards by thresholds for vertical accelerations. In the dynamic...

Vibrations induced by train crossings over railway bridges in high-speed rail operations often represent a critical criterion for the design and verification of bridge structures. According to current standards, these vibrations must be verified...
