Are you looking for innovative solutions for urban drainage, traffic infrastructure, special civil engineering, protective structures or hydraulic engineering? You are at the right place.
Share your ideas with us!
We focus on promoting water protection, maintaining and increasing safety against natural hazards, and ensuring robust and adaptable urban drainage. Challenges in these areas are increasing due to the effects of climate change.
Do you need to clarify certain aspects of design planning and protective structures against natural hazards or near-natural hydraulic engineering? Are you interested in developing solutions for climate-friendly urban drainage? Do you have questions on water and flood protection, intact water cycles, or new principles and test methods for the design of protective measures or for natural risk hazard assessment (rockfall, avalanches, debris flows or landslides)?
Our aim is to create solutions that are effective and ecologically sustainable, in line with social needs, and that take into account the requirements of spatial planning.
We offer a vast array of services within the scope of student projects, research mandates, research and development cooperations or consulting services:
We develop technical solutions for transportation facilities with the aim of ensuring a safe and sustainable transportation infrastructure. We are specialised in road traffic and airport facilities as well as rail infrastructure.
We teach our students about the relationship between mobility, transportation and infrastructure, and the importance of transportation infrastructure for society. We enable them to plan, design, build, operate and maintain sustainable transportation infrastructure.
In Continuing education and Research & Development, we focus on sustainable transport infrastructure, safe road infrastructure (ISSI infrastructure safety instruments), maintenance management and the monitoring of road infrastructure conditions. In addition, one of our key focusses is the railway system.
We propose innovative solutions in geotechnics and special civil engineering. We develop methods and measures for high-performance geotechnical structures and components such as retaining structures, prestressed and unstressed anchors, or pile and shallow foundations.
