Jun.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. Lars Abrahamczyk

Welcome to the Chair of Advanced Structures!

Our research and teaching focuses on the system analysis of structures including derivation of suitable partial models, engineering consideration of coupling and interactions, recording and consideration of extreme and changing load conditions as well as avoidance or evaluation of collapse potential using latest technologies (tools of digital engineering). Advanced Structures not only include the structures with high risk potential, lightweight and tent constructions, but also includes the use of damping elements and the interaction phenomena in standard construction methods.

Voided Concrete Beam Experiments

The first of a series of experiments to assess the performance of voided concrete beams in comparison to solid ones was successfully carried out.

#RECONSTRUCT - Forensic Structural Engineering course to launch in 2027

An ambitious course, integrating forensic structural engineering with innovative teaching methods, is set to launch in 2027. Hosted in Italy, this international pilot elective course aims to blend in-person sessions with online components, targeting Master’s students and lifelong learners.

The Chair of Advanced Structures offers projects and thesis in English and German Language. Interested students can either choose from the list of predefined topics or come up with their own ideas.
