The whole castle and especially the square tower are threatened by cracks in the stonework. Consultant Engineers Pfanner Baustatik were given the task of developing a solution to prevent further crack formation.
The palace facade was modeled in RFEM, as were special tension anchors, in an attempt to find a method to stop crack growth. Currently, the square tower is being modeled, including difficult geometry.
The tower changes from round to square in the upper section. The three-layer masonry was modeled with two layers and coupling surfaces in RFEM.
In upcoming years, we will most likely model other parts of the castle with RFEM. I would appreciate it if the good feedback from you continues, or is even enhanced."
