The course Prefabricated Structures, which is offered to Master's students, covers the basics of prefabricated construction and its special features.

Course language: German | 6 CP | 4 SWS

Term: winter semester

Schedule: Fr. 08:00-11.20

Content

The module teaches the basics of the various precast construction methods, the developments in the precast industry and special features, difficulties and possibilities of precast concrete structures. With the design and dimensioning of buildings made of precast elements, important components of structural planning are also taught. The module also deals with sustainability issues, such as the dismantlability of buildings, which is becoming increasingly important in the construction of future buildings.

Topics

  • Typical structural shapes in precast structures
  • Production, transport and assembly of prefabricated components
  • Design of (e.g. prestressed) prefabricated structures in accordance with DIN EN 1992-1-1/NA
  • Tilting of precast trusses
  • Joints and connections in precast construction
  • Prestressed precast structures
  • Fire protection design
  • Sustainability in relation to prefabricated structures (e.g. dismantlability)
