Static calculation and creation and application of a guideline for dealing with harmful substances in existing timber constructions

Draft of a monument-appropriate restoration strategy

The thesis analyses the effects of ageing and installation on the load-bearing capacity of natural-based adhesives on glued laminated timber.

The thesis deals with the development of an innovative method for the evaluation of existing buildings that goes beyond the traditional technical approach and can be defined as circular due diligence.

In Potsdam am Schlaatz, an area that was newly developed at the end of the 1970s and into which the first residents moved in 1985, additional living space is to be created through redensification measures and additional storeys.
