Abstract
Under Priority Program 1542 "Concrete light. Future concrete structures using bionic, mathematical and engineering formfinding principles", funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), the aim of the subproject "Shape optimized filigree rods made of UHPC and non-corrosive CFRP-reinforcement for variable three-dimensional trusses" is to develop shape-optimized struts and prestressed ties out of innovative materials in accordance with the principle "form follows force". By theoretical and experimental investigations on these two components fundamentals for the realization of modularly constructed slender concrete truss supporting structures shall be created. The present contribution gives an overview of the investigations that have already been carried out on the shape-optimized struis.
