Value chain and digitalisation - TimberConnect research project
Bachelor's degree:
- Systematic literature research on legal and technical framework conditions for the introduction of a digital product passport for construction products
Master:
-
Potential applications for a digital product passport in the construction and property industry (method: expert interviews, content analysis with QDA software)
-
Development of a concept for setting up an IoT-based process structure along the value chain of construction products (method: modelling approach, design thinking)
on the TimberConnect research project
Digital access management for construction sites
The extent of the informal economy varies from country to country and varies in selected OECD countries in terms of gross domestic product (GDP). Against this background, the aim is to use a specific example to demonstrate the possibilities for a building owner to effectively avoid the above-mentioned abuses in cooperation with authorities and other partners and by using digital systems
BIM and sustainability
Bachelor:
- Overview and analysis of Germany-wide initiatives in the field of sustainable planning and construction - development of a matrix with similarities, differences and potentials in the field of digitalisation
- Overview and analysis of national and international (EU) legal requirements and framework conditions in the field of sustainable building
Master:
- Analysis and evaluation of the data bases/sources (EPD, ÖKOBAUDAT, etc.) for the various verifications in certification systems in building construction (how are these structured and what is the quality, suitability and timeliness?)
- Analysing the information requirements from certification systems (at feature and/or document level) with reference to construction products
- Analysis of the information requirements of a specific criterion (at feature and/or document level) and implementation, e.g. using the Desite BIM programme
- Modelling requirements for BIM-based calculation of the circularity index (see Madaster)
Data situation through BIM
Analysis of the currently available and theoretically possible data supply for construction logistics processes through BIM
* The exact title will be determined in consultation with the students.
