Concrete is the most used building material. Its main component, cement, however, accounts production- related for up to 10 % of global CO2 emissions and is therefore a major contributor to human-induced climate change. Due to its low tensile strength, concrete must be further enhanced in tension with adequate reinforcement, such as steel. Producing the latter therefore additionally impacts the environment. Consequently, reducing the material amount for design and construction of structures, thus lowering material- and transport-induced emissions, represents a key element to climate protection. In this context, meeting the essential requirements ? sustainability, serviceability, durability ? is yet indispensable.
The book presents innovative optimization aided design methods for concrete structures. Mathematical optimization is applied to practical problems of structural concrete at each level: from external, through internal structure identification to cross-section design. It is shown how to design resource-efficient structures following the flux of forces, how to optimally adapt reinforcement layouts to the internal force flow, and how to efficiently cope with demanding cross-sectional design tasks such as biaxial bending.
The optimization aided design methods are discussed in detail and described vividly. They are independent of standards, concrete material (normal to ultra-high performance) and reinforcement type (steel fibers to carbon bars), thus universally applicable. The book illustrates the different approaches with numerous figures and calculation examples. Existing applications in structural engineering are presented to demonstrate the potential of optimization aided design concepts, including ultra-lightweight hybrid beams, thin concrete solar collectors, and improved reinforcement layouts for tunnel lining segments.

There is hardly a topic among building professionals that is discussed more intensively than sustainable construction. In view of the emphasis on this topic, it appears that intensive work is being done on the implementation of this challenge, both in research and in realization. After all, it is about nothing less than building in a way that enables all people of the generations to come to live a decent life on this earth. Because we have only this one. In 1994, the astronomer and astrophysicist Carl Sagan had the idea of taking a photo of the Earth with the help of the Voyager 1 space probe after it left the solar system. In a lecture on 13 October 1994 at the Cornell University, he said the following about this:
Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.1
In fact, we are overexploiting and consuming the resources of our earth and changing them massively. The consequences are climate change, scarcity of resources, natural disasters, hunger, flight, and misery. And the construction industry is massively involved in these developments.
The building industry in Germany accounted for 5.3% of nominal gross value added in 2018 (€179.6 billion GDP of €3388.2 billion GDP)2 but causes around 25% of CO2 emissions and uses around 40% of the energy generated.3
This discrepancy alone should lead to enormous productive activities. But what is the reality in terms of efficiency and research?
In sectors such as manufacturing (excluding construction), productivity increased by around 70% from 1995 to 2016, whereas in construction it only increased by around 5%.4
In terms of industry investment in research and development, out of a total of 436 571 people (in full‐time equivalents) in 2017, only 1147 people came from the construction industry, i.e. 0.26%.5
The Federal Government of the Federal Republic of Germany spent a total of €17 250 million on research and development in 2018. Of this, €118.1 million was allocated to the area of “Regional planning and urban development; construction research,” i.e. 0.69%.6
Considering only the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, a total of €10 486.7 million was invested in 2018. The area of “Regional planning and urban development; construction research” accounted for a share of only €27.5 million, i.e. 0.26%.
In 2019, the annual grant total from the German Research Foundation amounted to around €3285.3 million. The field of Civil Engineering and Architecture received grants totaling €51.5 million, i.e. 1.57%.7
The result of this small survey illustrates that in one of the most important industries in Germany, which contributes disproportionately to climate change, efficiency is stagnating and, at the same time, research is receiving severely below‐average funding.
Every 12 years, the population of the earth grows by 1 billion people8 who need a decent home, infrastructure, and energy supply. In view of the continuing increase in the world's population, we will not build less, but more. Contrary to this, we need to radically limit resource consumption and CO2 emissions. It is obvious that in the future, building will have to be completely different, not just marginally, but fundamentally.
It is thus clear that we must significantly intensify research in the construction industry. Because of its enormous leverage effect, this is therefore one of the most important tasks for the future, both nationally and internationally, with extremely great significance for society as a whole. At all levels, from basic research to realization, for all available and newly to be developed building materials and combinations of building materials, in all areas of our social life up to politics, we have to become much more creative. Only through our inventiveness, our power of imagination for realization, our abilities to mentally penetrate complex processes will we change the entire building
