Welcome to the Institute of Construction Materials

The institute offers a wide-ranging portfolio—from the development, mechanical production, and processing of high-performance building materials to energy-optimized construction, repair, and energy-efficient retrofitting of buildings.

This spectrum is reflected in our structure with our departments: “Materials and Construction” and “Fastening and Reinforcement Methods” as well as the two junior professorships "Timber Engineering" and "Construction Robotics".

The cooperation with the Materials Testing Institute (MPA) enables compehensive and interdisciplinary research and teaching

Our course offerings include a wide range of modules from our departments. The IWB currently offers over 20 courses in the degree programs Civil Engineering, Environmental Protection Technology, Real Estate Management and Real Estate Technology, Transport Engineering and in the COMMAS master's program.
