The fields of research we are working on are constantly changing. At the related, more detailed pages you can find more information about our ongoing and completed projects and contact person.

The Otto Mohr Laboratory is involved in most of the institute's research projects and additionally in various mainly application-oriented research tasks. The projects range from e.g. determining special material properties of existing structures to long-term observations of structures.

The goal of the CRC/Transregio 280 is to create the foundations for the Building of the future: completely rethought concepts for the design, modelling, construction, manufacture and use of sustainable resource-efficient building elements made of mineral building materials.

SPP 2388 "Hundert plus" is concerned with extending the service life of complex building structures through intelligent digitalization. In parallel to basic research, new methods are being validated on the Nibelungen Bridge in Worms.

The openLAB research bridge is an approx. 45 m long and 4.5 m wide prestressed concrete bridge, in which different construction methods were combined and extensive sensor technology was applied. Various innovative evaluation algorithms are tested on the basis of the collected data and optimized for transfer to construction practice.

The CUBE is the world's first concrete building with non-metallic reinforcement. It is the result of reserch and develpoment in the BMBF-funded Zwanzig20 consortium "C³ – Carbon Concrete Composite".

Since 2009, the Institute of Concrete Structures is been publishing its year book available as print and as online version as well. It includes the institute’s annual publications. Main part of the institute’s monographs are the conference proceedings of the institute’s two symposia and the publication series kid containing dissertations in general.
