About Us
Since its foundation in 1948, the Institute for Building Materials Research at RWTH Aachen University (ibac) has developed into an internationally leading and recognised platform in the field of building materials research. The spectrum ranges from applied research and development, often in cooperation with industrial partners, to basic scientific research. RWTH Aachen University offers an ideal environment for this.
Das ibac hat sich 2014 deutlich vergrößert und ist auf 3 Professuren und eine Juniorprofessur angewachsen. Die sich daraus ergebenden organisatorischen Veränderungen haben dazu geführt, dass die Einheiten des ibac mit eigenen Internetangeboten auftreten. Hier finden Sie die gemeinsamen Seiten der Lehr- und Forschungsgebiete Bauwerkserhaltung und -Instandsetzung (Professor Raupach) und Strukturelle Polymerkomposite im Bauwesen (Professor Weichold).
