The Civil and Environmental Engineering Project Office (PBU) offers students of the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering a comprehensive range of support services. All of last year's PBU activities were published in an annual report and can now be viewed.
Something is happening at the Faculty: several new professorships were filled this spring - a small generational change that is taking place more or less silently.
Reason enough to take a closer look at who will be at the helm of one or the other chair in the future, what new directions can be expected in terms of content and who the people behind the title are. We start with Prof. Johanna Waimann, who has held the Chair of Mechanics - Materials Theory since March and as such succeeds Prof. Klaus Hackl.
In the joint project “Timber in the addition of storeys - evaluation and implementation of timber in additions”, the Ruhr University Bochum and the Technical University of Braunschweig, together with other project partners, have drawn up a construction catalog with relevant structural and design requirements for additions in timber.
Organized by the Chair of Computing in Engineering, the event "Linked Data in Architecture and Construction" (LDAC) took place last week in the RUB Makerspace as a combined format of workshop and summer school.
For his achievements in teaching as well as his professional and scientific merits, the Ruhr University Bochum awarded Mr. Gerhard Wehrmeyer the title of Honorary Professor yesterday, 12th June 2024.
Between 6th and 7th June 2024 the Symposium on Vortex-Induced Vibrations on Wind Turbine Support Structure (VIV) took place at the Mining Museum in Bochum.
The Project Office Building and Environment celebrated its 25th anniversary in a relaxed atmosphere on Wednesday, June 5, 2024. Employees and students took the opportunity to explore the space, which looks a little inconspicuous when you walk past it, and enjoyed a short break from work over waffles and drinks.
As part of the series “In Motion”, which appeared in the current issue of the RUB science magazine 'Rubin', Dr.-Ing. Cornelia Kalender and Dr.-Ing. Nina Nytus provide insights into wind engineering and sustainable approaches in road construction.
Intersections are not always clear and easy to navigate for cyclists, especially when many other road users are involved. Researchers from the Chair of Transportation - Planning and Management want to find out what kind of cycling guidance works at intersections and invite everyone to take part in a five-minute online survey.
