Johannes Hummel

Dr. Johannes Hummel serves as a Lecturer and Scientific Assistant at the Institute of Timber Structures and Building Rehabilitation within the Faculty of Civil Engineering at the University of Kassel, Germany, a position he has held continuously since October 2011.

His educational foundation includes a Master of Science in Civil Engineering for Structural Engineering (2010-2011) and a Diploma in Civil Engineering with specialized focus on Structural Engineering (2005-2010), both completed at the University of Kassel through integrated academic-vocational programs that also certified him as a Road Builder. Additional professional training includes Technical College for Construction (2004-2005) and Roofer Journeyman certification (2000-2003).

Dr. Hummel's research concentrates on sustainable timber construction methodologies and historical building rehabilitation techniques. His work bridges theoretical structural engineering principles with practical preservation applications, emphasizing material science in wooden structures and innovative rehabilitation approaches for heritage buildings. This interdisciplinary focus positions him at the intersection of civil engineering, architectural preservation, and sustainable construction practices.
