Exklusiv für Mitgliedsunternehmen und Universitätspartner veranstaltet der Bauindustrieverband Nordrhein-Westfalen e.V. mit Unterstützung der BWI-Bau GmbH Institut der Bauwirtschaft den jährlich stattfindenden HochschultagNRW. Ziel ist der Austausch zwischen Unternehmen und Hochschulen. Auf Einladung von Frau Prof. Dr. Sigrid Brell-Cokcan vom Lehrstuhl für Individualisierte Bauproduktion fand der diesjährige Hochschultag an der RWTH Aachen, statt. Thema der diesjährigen Tagung ist die Industrialisierung in der Bauwirtschaft:
Die Bauindustrie 4.0 aus Sicht von Wissenschaft und Wirtschaft: Wo liegen die Schnittmengen, wo gibt es noch Lücken? Was können die Protagonisten der Bauwirtschaft tun, um Erkenntnisse aus Forschung und Lehre noch besser in der Praxis zu verankern? Welche Projekte sind wegweisend? Was sind die rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen? Ist die Bauindustrie NRW bereit für die Transformation?
Herzlichen Dank an alle Gäste und Referenten für die starken Impulse und den interessanten Austausch:
Ministerin Ina Brandes, Univ. Prof. Dr.-Ing.Thomas Bergs, Daniel Strücker, Prof. Beate Wiemann, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Martina Schnellenbach-Held, Prof. Dr.-Sc. Gunnar Lühr, Prof. Dr.-Ing.

A week full of impressions, meetings, and plenty of new insights at bauma 2022 – the IP Team and the CCR Team of the RWTH Aachen as well 30 students of our Construction & Robotics Master spend inspiring and interesting days on the bauma 2022. After a wonderful second place in the BAUMA Innovation Award, deepened partnerships, numerous new contacts, and lots of ideas, we will let sink in a bit before we discuss and share them at our livinglab at the ReferenceConstructionSite.
Thank you bauma and like-minded people out there for this great inspiration!
The sustainability project ROBETON convinces the jury in the category of research and misses the victory with just one percentage point behind the winners of the Institute for Mechanical Engineering of the TU Bergakademie Freiberg with their Deep Sea Sampling project.
Munich, October 23, 2022 At the opening of the 33rd World’s Leading Trade Fair for Construction Machinery, Building Material Machines, Mining Machines, Construction Vehicles, and Construction Equipment, the bauma 2022 Innovation Award was presented on Sunday evening. The team led by Prof. Dr. Sigrid Brell-Cokcan from the Chair of Individualized Production at RWTH Aachen University won second place with the ROBETON project.
The ROBETON research project aims to dismantle concrete walls in a minimally invasive way to prepare them for reuse in the circular economy in construction. By digitally upgrading a BROKK demolition machine to a (partially) automated robot, a new sustainable process for the safe, controlled deconstruction and subsequent reuse of concrete building components as a source of secondary building products is being developed at RWTH Aachen University. Currently, there are neither fully nor partially automated solutions on the market. This gap is now to be closed.
“We will only be able to solve the challenges of our time in collaboration with industry. I am pleased that, together with our supporters and partners, we can make a creative contribution to the circular economy of construction with the ROBETON project. Instead of developing new robots, we are taking the approach of digitally developing reliable industry-proof construction machines into robots. We would like to thank the jury for this significant recognition and the exciting competition!” says Prof. Dr. Sigrid Brell-Cokcan and emphasizes: “Many thanks also to our supporters for their trust, to our partners for their active support and the entire IP team at RWTH for such passionate work!
The ROBETON research project is funded by the Federal Institute for Research on Building, Urban Affairs, and Spatial Development (BBSR) on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Housing, Urban Development (BMWSB) with funds from the #ZukunftBau research grant. Furthermore, the project is supported by the project partners Hilti AG and BROKK DA GmbH as well as the associated project partners PORR Group; EIFFAGE, LEONHARD WEISS, HKS Drehantriebe, Kerschgens, the ifm Group and igus.
The Bauma Innovation Award is presented every three years at bauma, the world’s leading trade fair for construction machinery, building materials machinery, mining machinery, construction vehicles, and construction equipment. With this award, the organizers honor research and development teams from companies and universities that bring cutting-edge technology for the construction, building materials, and mining industries to market maturity, while keeping an eye on resources, the environment, and people. This year, bauma will be held in Munich from October 24 to 30, 2022.

The Chair of Individualized Production has been nominated for the BAUMA Innovation Award with the ROBETON project. The goal of the ROBETON research project is to deconstruct concrete walls in a minimally invasive way to prepare them for reuse for circulareconomy in construction. A research team at the Chair of Individualized Construction Production is working with an international industry consortium and students from the Construction & Robotics master’s program to cut individual components out of buildings being demolished so that they can later be reused in construction and circular economy. Currently, there are neither fully nor partially automated solutions on the market. This gap is now to be closed. The ROBETON research project is funded by the Federal Institute for Research on Building, Urban Affairs and Spatial Development (BBSR) on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Housing, Urban Development (BMWSB) with funds from the Zukunft Bau research grant.
Furthermore, the project is supported by the project partners Hilti and Brokk as well as the associated project partners PORR; EIFFAGE, LEONHARD WEISS, HKS Drehantriebe, Kerschgens and the IMF Group.
The IP research team consists of Prof. Sigrid Brell-Cokcan, Christoph Heuer, Joo Lee and Victoria Jung.
During a two-week cooperation, the Chair of Individualized Production and Robots in Architecture Research UG together with our cooperation partner Lamparter tested the use of the flexible mobile robot platforms and enhanced it especially for steel construction. During the twelfth IoC project meeting, this cooperation was presented to the IoC consortium. The steel fabrication demonstrator is based on a flexible plant concept with a mobile interactive robot. The robot assists with assembly, for example by transporting and precisely positioning components. The welder then only has to set the weld seam. Compared with conventional systems, the concept is characterized by the fact that it enables human-machine collaboration and requires no further safety precautions. The welder can thus intervene directly in the robot’s process and adapt it individually. Among other things, this facilitates the otherwise time-consuming scribing and transport of components and reduces workforce.
This research and development project is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) within the “Innovations for Tomorrow’s Productions, Services, and Work” Program and implemented by the Project Management Agency Karlsruhe (PTKA).
