Cooperation
In exchange with research and science
We keep in touch with current developments in the fields of research and academia thanks to our close ties to universities and colleges based on the professorships of key employees and partners, and by participating widely in national and international lecture events. In addition, our employees are involved in teaching events and lectures, seminars, and workshops to incorporate current research and findings into our project work and contribute to the international transfer of knowledge.
Innovations for a sustainable future
To meet the challenges in the building industry posed by a growing world population, climate change and several other multi-faceted changes, we focus strongly on research and development.
New construction techniques are being developed, tested and implemented. Engineering and building structures using new approaches and materials requires a pioneering spirit and represents a major part of our efforts to make the world of construction sustainable and future-proof.
schlaich bergermann partner is significantly involved in the development of new materials and their implementation. We are researching carbon as a material for carbon fiber polymer cable systems and reinforcements, infra-lightweight concrete and many more.
We develop light-weight floor systems to reduce concrete and cement and plan long-span facades with invisible carbon tensile elements.
Partnerships
We collaborate closely with experts from all over the world. With Prof. Dr.-Ing. Arndt Goldack from Bergische Universität in Wuppertal, we discuss questions on the dynamics and vibration optimization of structures and implement insights gained through our research activities in our projects.
With the Circular Construction Lab at Cornell University College of Architecture, Art, and Planning we explore opportunities for implementing Circular Economy principles, such as element reuse, design for deconstruction, and material passporting.
