Chair of Structural Design - Prof. Dr. Joseph Schwartz
The term “Structural Design” denotes the programmatic idea of a reconciliation between the disciplines of engineering and architecture
through the reciprocal integration of load-bearing structure and design concept. This view of structural systems encourages a unified
understanding of the interplay of form and load-bearing capacity – that is, an understanding of the formative effect of the active inner
forces in the building structure and the targeted control of these forces.
