We are experts.
For solid construction.

Solid construction includes building structures made of masonry, concrete, reinforced concrete or prestressed concrete. For centuries, our built environment has been characterized by solid construction. Reinforced concrete combines the properties of two building materials. Concrete optimally withstands compressive forces, while steel takes on the tensile forces. Properly coordinated, reinforced concrete can be used to create very slender structures that can withstand high forces. Using modern technology, high-load-bearing reinforced concrete components can be cast in almost any shape on site or in precast plants.

We plan solidly.
And filigree.

The planning and implementation of perfectly coordinated reinforced concrete structures has been one of our core competencies from the very beginning. Developed according to the principle "As little supporting structure as possible, as much as necessary". With the experience we have gained over decades, we plan supporting structures for solid buildings with large spans that can also withstand high loads. This allows a great deal of freedom for the architecture and increases the flexibility of use of the structures. However, our focus is not on optimizing the load-bearing structure, but also on synergy effects from the intelligent combination of different materials and their properties.

Reinforced concrete and masonry structures are highly robust, resistant to environmental influences and have very good physical and fire protection properties. Our aim is to find the best possible solution for the building with the right combinations.

Sustainably planned.
Solidly built.

The CO2 emissions generated by concrete during production and processing are also forcing a more sustainable use of materials in solid construction. Accordingly, we pay attention to sustainably and regionally produced materials in our consulting and planning. In masonry construction, for example, bricks that are produced using recycled bricks or concrete rubble. For concrete, we rely on the use of recycled concrete and CO2-optimized cement.

A large proportion of the CO2-intensive reinforcing steel used in reinforced concrete components is based on the normative regulations for the full-surface installation of minimum reinforcement quantities. We have developed a calculation method specifically for this purpose, with which the consumption of reinforcing steel can be significantly reduced. We exploit further potential for minimizing the use of resources in reinforced concrete construction through the targeted use of prestressing technology. In this way, the dimensions of the components and the quantities of reinforcing steel can be reduced to a minimum.
