Ministerbesuch beim Digital Building Fabrication Laboratory
Der niedersächsische Minister für Umwelt, Energie, Bauen und Klimaschutz Olaf Lies und die Braunschweiger Landtagsabgeordnete Anette Schütze informierten sich im Zuge der ersten Sommerreise des Ministers über grundlegende wissenschaftliche Forschungsvorhaben an der TU Braunschweig. Eine Station des Ministers war das Digital Building Fabrication Laboratory (DBFL) des Instituts für Tragwerksentwurf. Dort nutzten Lies und Schütze die Gelegenheit, Einblicke in die Forschung der additiven Fertigung, dem 3D-Druck im Bauwesen zu erhalten und den Sonderforschungsbereich TRR 277 Additive Manufacturing in Construction (AMC) kennenzulernen. Sowohl Lies als auch Schütze betonten die Notwendigkeit, universitäre Forschungsergebnisse besser zu nutzen und stärker in die Gesellschaft hineinzutragen. Für beide Politiker gilt der Grundsatz: exzellente Forschung kann bei gesellschaftlichen Wandlungsprozessen einen großen Beitrag leisten. Konkret wurden dem Minister und …

Spring fever in the AMC
At the cross-project workshop in Munich, the subprojects were able to get closer during slow dating. At the end of April, 75 scientists of the Collaborative Research Center Transregio 277 Additive Manufacturing in Construction (AMC) met in Munich to determine in-depth cooperation possibilities of their subprojects and to define the orientation of the AMC for the 2nd funding phase. The focus of the two days was on networking within the AMC. The subprojects of the Focus Areas A, B and C met in so-called “slow dates” every 30 minutes to define and determine common points of contact and meaningful collaborations. The focus was less on as many collaborations as possible, but more on the quality of the networking and the …
