Additive Manufacturing in Construction
AMC TRR 277

Location: TU München

Dipl. Ing. Julia Fleckenstein

is a doctoral researcher at the TT Professorship for Digital Fabrication at TUM with background in architecture. In her research, she explores site-specific digital design tools for robotically fabricated real-size mono-component building envelopes. As part of her association with the AMC, she is part of the interdisciplinary teaching team for the project "From Additive Manufacturing to Architecture" in 2022 and contributes as Design Lead for the collaborative demonstrator “Breuer x AM”.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Johannes Fottner

Project leader in A03 and B02. He instructs and supports the academic staff regarding bulk conveying and machine design questions.

Prof. Dr. Torben Gädt

Torben Gädt is professor at the Chemistry Department at TU Munich. He holds the chair for the Chemistry of Construction Materials. The research of his group is focused on admixture driven concrete design with a special focus on the rheology and hydration kinetics of inorganic binder phases. He will support the work of the TRR 277 as an expert in rheology-control of mineral construction materials with admixtures.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Christoph Gehlen

Dean of TUM School of Engineering and Design, Head of cbm and leads project A02 and A03. He instructs and advises the academic staff regarding additive manufacturing and concrete technological questions. He is responsible for the coordination and quality control of all work of cbm. Untill Oct. 2021 he was the co-spokesperson of the TRR 277. He then became Dean of TUM School of Engineering and Design and handed over the tasks of Co-Speaker to Kathrin Dörfler.

Prof. Ph.D. Simos Gerasimidis AMC-MERCATOR-FELLOW

The collaboration between Prof. Gerasimidis and TRR 277 Additive Manufacturing in Construction (AMC), particularly with project A06, presents a great opportunity to achieve outstanding results. This partnership aims to push forward cutting-edge research that redefines how additively manufactured steel is used in large-scale construction. Topics such as architected steel lattices and novel structural designs are explored, with the potential to transform modern civil engineering practices through improved strength, durability, and design flexibility.

M. Eng. Benedikt Grimm

is a doctoral researcher at the Centre for Building Material within TUM. He is responsible for the further development of the material established in the first project phase of A03. He further analysis all data, prepares reports, presentations and publications.

M. Sc. Maximilian Hechtl

is a research associate at the Working group of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Christoph Gehlen. Expert in material development of Extrusion Concrete for additive manufacturing.
