- Professorship Building Technology
The professorship supports research and development projects that are directly related to construction and therefore works closely with business partners. The focus of the research is on the exact and realistic recording of material properties with regard to load-bearing capacity and serviceability, as well as on the joining and processing of materials into components. - Professorship Building Physics and Technical Finishing
The professorship works on the following research topics:
- Monitoring and performance analysis of buildings
- Integral building and energy concepts, simulation-based system optimisation
- User satisfaction at workplaces
- Comfort and user behaviour under transient conditions - Professorship Sustainable Building
