Stephan Lochte-Holtgreven

Stephan Lochte-Holtgreven is a Professor at the Department of Construction and Environment within the Faculty of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Environment at Bremen University of Applied Sciences. His expertise lies in steel construction and structural statics, with a focus on offshore wind turbine support structures, grouted connections, and fatigue strength analysis.

• Teaches courses on Structural Analysis and Steel Construction
• Head of the Construction and Environment Department
• Research areas: Steel composite structures, fracture toughness, shell structures, numerical modeling, and offshore infrastructure

Recent projects include the Weser Bridge load tests (2025) and studies on prestressing techniques in diaphragm walls (2021-2022). His work emphasizes sustainable design, as seen in the mobile DesignBuild laboratory's emissions-free cargo bike (2025). Publications highlight advancements in grouted joint mechanics, fatigue life prediction, and structural integrity for offshore systems.
