Smooth and profiled metal components are frequently used to execute roof or wall claddings. Alongside the classic trapezoidal sheet, individual solutions are also frequent. Metal products and construc

Other tendons include special prestressing components, e.g. for realising innovative construction techniques based using prestressing systems, also in combination with other manufacturing and reinforc

For external post-tensioning, the tendons lie outside the cross-section of the concrete member, but inside the envelope of the structure. These post-tensioning systems are used for prestressing concre

For internal unbonded post-tensioning, the prestressing tendons are arranged in a duct filled with a special corrosion protection system. These post-tensioning systems are used for prestressing concre

For internal bonded post-tensioning, the tendons are arranged in a sheath (tendon duct) which is grouted after the prestressing force has been applied. These post-tensioning systems are used for prest

Construction products and construction techniques for airborne sound insulation ensure that airborne sound insulation requirements in buildings can be met. Thermal and sound insulation products

Impact sound insulation products are placed under floating screed or used as part of suitable floor systems to improve the impact sound insulation of the floors. Usual delivery forms for the products

Pipe insulation products are used to insulate heating distribution and hot water pipes as well as cooling distribution and cold water pipes in buildings in accordance with the Buildings Energy Act (GE

These fasteners are used for rear fixing facade panels to the subframes of external wall cladding systems. The load-bearing parts of the fastener are made of stainless steel. The deformation-controlle

DIBt grants general construction technique permits (aBG) for floor and wall construction techniques which significantly deviate from the Technical Building Rules or for which no generally recognised t

Due to their thermally insulating effect, fire-protective render systems increase the fire-resistance duration of the clad components. The render system consists of a dry mortar, which is mixed with w

Central heating appliances ( Sammel-Feuerstätten ) are heating appliances that heat a medium (usually heating water) and provide warmth to a building via the ductwork and radiators. They are not to be

The category of 'free-standing chimneys' also includes chimneys that are restrained or supported laterally or mounted on top of another structure. Special constructions

The work area 'Strengthening of concrete structures with bonded reinforcement' comprises kits for retrofitting aimed at increasing the flexural and shear resistance of existing concrete structures (st

Soil mixing techniques serve to create unreinforced structural elements (single elements or bodies of soil made of single elements) through grouting of the soil with a binder suspension on site. With

Driven piles made of ductile cast iron pipes are displacement piles and are used when soil strata have no or little load-bearing capacity. The piles transfer the loads to lower strata with higher load

Vibro stone columns are unreinforced pile-like structural elements. They belong to the group of displacement piles and can be used as load-bearing or foundation elements for transferring loads from st

Micropiles serve to transfer axial tensile and/or compressive forces into the ground. They are used, among other things, as foundation elements. Micropiles are driven into the ground using drilling or

Soil nailing is a measure used to increase the tensile and shear strength of the soil to such an extent that the nailed soil can be considered as a monolithic block for verification purposes. Soil nai
