Friedhelm Stangenberg

Professor Friedhelm Stangenberg holds the Chair of Concrete Structures within the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Ruhr University Bochum, located at Universitätsstraße 150 in Bochum, Germany. His academic career has focused extensively on reinforced concrete systems and structural engineering.

His research interests center around concrete structures with particular emphasis on durability, structural behavior under various loading conditions, and lifespan analysis of reinforced concrete systems. His work addresses critical structural areas during demolition operations, biaxial shear loads on concrete beams, and long-term changes in load-bearing properties.

Professor Stangenberg has led significant research initiatives, particularly within Collaborative Research Centers, focusing on damage-oriented approaches to structural engineering and service life determination. His work bridges theoretical models with practical applications in structural engineering.

Throughout his career, he has contributed to numerous completed research projects funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), demonstrating sustained engagement with structural engineering challenges.
