Dr.-Ing. Thomas Lechner about design and construction
At the Dresden Steel Construction Conference 2026, Dr.-Ing. Thomas Lechner, head of our steel and large-scale bridges department, held a lecture about “Rader Viaduct – a semi-integral composite bridge with 224 m span width”.
On 26 March 2026, at Dresden University of Technology, he presented the characteristics with regards to design and structural engineering of the project and provided practical insight into the implementation of a modern composite structure. He specifically highlighted challenges during design, implementation and development of structural details.
The conference is aimed at engineers, civil engineering firms as well as everyone involved with current developments of steel and composite bridge engineering; it offers an opportunity to talk to experts and gain new impetus.
