Single-variety composite materials made of fibers and foams become sustainable, recyclable building components. At the Laboratory for Textile Lightweight Construction at FFin, the research team of professors Claudia Lüling, Petra Rucker-Gramm and Agnes Weiland has combined its expertise in architecture, building physics and structural engineering.
PROJECT ge3TEX is concerned with structurally differentiated monomaterials for the building envelope. The aim is to develop recyclable, pressure- and tensile-stable and insulating lightweight components for the building envelope with high fire protection properties and low assembly costs. Combinations of a group of materials are being investigated: basalt fibers with foamed concrete, glass fibers with expanded glass and PET fibers with PET foam.
Claudia Lüling has been teaching as a professor at Frankfurt UAS since 2003. She is a founding member of the Frankfurt Research Institute FFin, where she heads the Laboratory for Textile Lightweight Construction in the Sustainable Lightweight Construction research area.
Women in construction research are still rather rare. We are therefore all the more pleased that in the last project there were three of us from our Frankfurt UAS university alone, together with Prof. Dr.-Ing. Petra Rucker-Gramm for the area of building materials, building physics, building preservation & resource-optimized building and Prof. Dr.-Ing. Agnes Weilandt for the area of "building mechanics, structural analysis and structural engineering".
