Press releases
new publication: Ultra-High Performance Concrete UHPC - Fundamentals, Design, Examples
UHPC becomes attractive because of life cycle cost and sustainability analysis for structures. This book gives a comprehensive overview from material properties and manufacturing to design and dimensioning aspects. With worldwide examples from bridge and building engineering.
new publication: Strengthening of Concrete Structures with Adhesively Bonded Reinforcement
The design and use of externally bonded CFRP strips, CF sheets and steel plates according to the German DAfStb guideline, which supplements the Eurocode. With design examples covering fatigue, creep, serviceability and ultimate limit state analysis for slabs, beams and columns.
new publication: Rock Mechanics Based on an Anisotropic Jointed Rock Model (AJRM)
This book focuses on the fundamentals of rock mechanics as a basis for the safe and economical design and construction of tunnels, dam foundations and slopes in jointed and anisotropic rock.
new publication: Handbook of Tunnel Engineering II
Tunnelling is one of the most interesting but also most challenging tasks for engineers. The two-volume handbook covers the latest state of the associated fields such as geomechanics, structural design, machine and construction process technology and construction management.

new publication: Brücken aus Stahlbeton und Spannbeton (Reinforced and restressed concrete bridges) - Design, construction and structural calculation
The "Holst" – the standard work on the construction of concrete bridges – is now published in the sixth edition. The Eurocodes, the new Ril 804 and the new bearing standards have all been considered. The book includes coverage of the design, detailing and construction of road and rail bridges.
15th Anniversary of Structurae, the Most Comprehensive Information Network for Civil Engineering Worldwide
Structurae.de, the largest information network worldwide on civil engineering was created 15 years ago and has collected information on 64,000 civil engineering structures, including 175,000 images.
new publication: Beton-Kalender 2014 (Concrete Yearbook) underground construction - foundation engineering - Eurocode 7
Underground construction is an important subject today, particularly for inner-city transport routes and infrastructure. The Concrete Yearbook 2014 offers an up-to-date collection of the entire range of disciplines and specialisations involved and thus provides a quick overview of the interfaces and the necessary dialogue among qualified engineers in the design and construction of underground works. Subjects related to concrete, such as shotcrete or segment production, are of course dealt with in more detail.
new publication: Recommendations on Excavations
For the new 3rd edition, all the recommendations have been completely revised and brought into line with the new generation of codes (EC 7 and DIN 1054). The book thus supersedes the 2nd edition from 2008.
new publication: Recommendations on Piling (EA Pfähle)
This handbook provides a complete overview of pile systems and their application and production. It shows their analysis based on the new safety concept providing numerous examples for single piles, pile grids and groups. These recommendations are considered rules of engineering.
