Bei der Festlegung von Straßentrassen und Bahnstrecken werden heute umweltverträgliche Lösungen gefordert.

Bei der statischen Berechnung von Erdbauten stehen die Probleme der Standsicherheit im Vordergrund.

The book deals with the structural design of temporary excavation support and the dimensioning of excavation support walls and their individual components.

The Recommendations deal with the basics of performing verifications and the application of geotextiles for the reinforcement of various foundation systems and ground improvement measures, in road construction, for slopes and retaining structures and in landfill operation.

Prestressing increases the load-bearing capacity of reinforced concrete structures significantly and also improves their serviceability.

Strengthening of existing structures is an increasing area of work for practising structural design engineers.

The book brings together the basics and rules for design, detailing, structural design and construction of structures for protection against wild torrents.

The book is no encyclopedia of construction materials but rather a systematic description with the emphasis on the basics of material behaviour in order to assist the understanding of the dependencies of the material constants, which are not actually constants.

The design of fixings in concrete is in practice almost exclusively performed with programs provided by manufacturers.

Obwohl Schwingungsprobleme in der Praxis zunehmend auftreten, werden sie von Tragwerkplanern gern umgangen.

The central themes are structural stability, the determination of loading according to 2nd order theory and the verification of load-bearing capacity.

The Finite Element Method (FEM) has become a standard tool used in everyday work by structural engineers having to analyse virtually any type of structure.

Design calculations and dimensioning of masonry according to the partial safety factor concept is required by the new standard part DIN 1053-100.

All relevant relationships of building physics are explained, not only those included in standards, for energy-efficient building and to reduce the effect on the climate as well as for optimal interior climate and to avoid damage to building elements.

This book provides a comprehensive insight into precast concrete construction today.
