Sustainability civil engineering
Sustainability in practical implementation
The challenge with the topic of "sustainability" is that there is no single metric, but rather a wide variety of aspects that need to be weighed up and coordinated. For example, where can compromises be made in terms of load-bearing capacity and more recycled materials be used? What is the relationship between maintenance costs and infiltration-capable pavements? How can civil engineering contribute to a better urban climate in hot summers through concrete measures? How can good coordination reduce the number of civil engineering sites and thus prevent roads from being broken up again before the end of their service life? Sustainable civil engineering is all about interaction. We work together with our clients to develop their sustainability principles and use our many years of experience to ensure that these can also be implemented in practice.
