Sergej Rempel

Professor Sergej Rempel is a distinguished faculty member at Technische Hochschule Augsburg, serving as Chairman of the Examination Board for Civil Engineering and Scientific Director of TTZ Aichach. His institutional affiliations include:

• Technische Hochschule Augsburg - Architecture and Civil Engineering faculty
• TTZ Aichach - Scientific Director
• DIN Standards Committee for Building Construction (NABau)
• German Committee for Structural Concrete (DAfStb)
• Advisory Board of 'Concrete and Reinforced Concrete Construction' journal

Professor Rempel's research focuses on innovative concrete technologies, particularly textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) and carbon concrete. His work spans structural engineering, safety analysis, probabilistic safety concepts, and practical applications of advanced concrete materials. He has made significant contributions to the development of corrosion-free concrete structures through carbon fiber reinforcement, addressing one of the most persistent challenges in civil engineering - steel corrosion in reinforced concrete.

His publication record demonstrates consistent advancement in the field, with recent work focusing on safety concepts for textile-reinforced concrete structures, reliability analysis, bending design models, and environmental life cycle assessments of carbon concrete bridges. His research bridges theoretical analysis with practical implementation, as evidenced by his involvement in landmark projects like the carbon concrete bridge in Albstadt-Ebingen.

• Member of DIN Standards Committee for Building Construction
• Member of DAfStb Technical Committee
• Advisory Board member for 'Concrete and Reinforced Concrete Construction' journal

Professor Rempel actively supervises research and academic work in civil engineering, with a focus on developing next-generation concrete technologies that improve structural durability, reduce maintenance requirements, and enhance sustainability in construction. His work on economic analyses of textile-reinforced concrete applications demonstrates his commitment to ensuring practical implementation of advanced materials in the construction industry.

His laboratory and research group focus on testing and developing textile-reinforced concrete elements, with particular attention to bending load capacity, long-term durability, and practical construction applications. The research has led to numerous industrial collaborations and practical implementations in bridge construction, building facades, and historical restoration projects.
