The course first covers the basics of building materials science. Cement-bound building materials are dealt with first and foremost.
Fundamentals of materials testing:
Cement-bound building materials:
In the exercises, concrete designs are created using practical examples and the application-oriented material behavior of various building materials is considered.
In the laboratory practicals, the investigation methods developed in the lectures are carried out and explained in a practical manner.

Mechanical properties (strength, elasticity)
Other building materials
In the exercises, concrete designs are created using practical examples and the application-oriented material behavior of various building materials is examined. In the laboratory practicals, the investigation methods developed in the lectures are carried out and explained in a practical manner.
Moodle course: Bautoffe UI
The lectures and exercises deal with the introduction to the fundamentals of chemistry in connection with the properties of building materials. This includes:
Moodle course: Werkstoffchemie
The physical and chemical effects from the environment and their possible effects on concrete structures are presented (exposure classes, concrete and reinforcement corrosion). In particular, the transport processes within the microstructure and the corrosion processes are discussed:
In the event of damage occurring, the structural analyses required for a diagnosis, including suitable test methods, are first presented. Furthermore, appropriate repair measures, in particular the choice of suitable building materials, including their application limits, are explained. Design aspects of the repair and strengthening of concrete structures are also discussed:
In the laboratory practicals, the durability-relevant examination methods and selected repair concepts developed in the lectures are carried out and explained in a practical manner.
Moodle course: Dauerhaftigkeit und Instandsetzung von Betonbauwerken
This module deals in detail with the special requirements for concrete in the various applications in the construction of roads, tunnels, water-impermeable components and much more. In addition to the many possible uses of concrete, the compositions required to give the concrete the properties that meet the various requirements and stresses are explained. In addition to the concept of concrete technology, technological processes and framework conditions from practice are dealt with in particular.
Topics (among others):
Moodle course: Betone für besondere Anwendungen in der Praxis
The appropriate areas of application of special concrete constituents and the associated changes in the concrete structure are explained.
These include (among others):
The properties of special concretes and the procedure for special concreting methods are explained. In particular, the advantages, but also the application limits and special verification methods are shown.
These include (among others)
In the exercises, concrete designs are created using practical examples and conformity tests are carried out on concretes. In the laboratory practicals, the test methods developed in the lectures are carried out and explained in a practical way.
