Each of us certainly thinks of a specific building when it comes to futurist architecture. In fact, futurism is not just about aesthetically bizarre buildings, but about a holistic concept: modern building with a strong focus on sustainability and responsibility towards people and nature alike. What is futurism about and what can we learn from it?
The London skyline is a curiosity in and of itself. One of the skyscrapers, the "Walkie-Talkie", opened in 2015 and has caused extreme dissatisfaction in the capital city ever since.

CAD programs are all well and good for the design of built-in parts. However, it seems that every manufacturer has its own standard. Simply using a built-in part from another company? This is an effort that nobody wants. But it does not have to be! Our guest today, Peter Plöppl, develops solutions for these problems, using his intelligent tool Suppgrade. Curious? Enjoy reading!
Alexander Oehler is an environmental engineer and works on various projects in the field of urban water management. In this podcast, he talks more about the implementation of BIM in water management. Furthermore, we discuss digitization and exciting trends in construction. Read on now!
Our technology is evolving rapidly. What will it look like in 2049? Or 2077? Will we then have metal implants in our bodies and AI steers our flying cars through the bright neon light in the fog of a big city? What is AI, and how could it affect our conservative construction industry? Our guest, Michael Kraus, tells us how AI is doing in the construction industry. We are excited!
Conventional construction methods are a thing of the past – are they not? Mathias Obergrießer is our guest on the Dlubal podcast. As a professor of digital planning and construction, he is very familiar with the opportunities that digitization and BIM offer us and the challenges we face. Read more about Mr. Obergrießer's career and his view of the future!
Without them, chaos will probably break out at some point, even on the smallest construction sites: construction managers have a lot of responsibility. What are the tasks of a site manager? Is it more difficult to survive in this job as a woman? Our guest today, Laura Kreisel, answers our questions. We are excited to see what she has to say! You too? Then read on now!
There are bright minds behind every good software – and the Dlubal Software structural analysis programs are not an exception. Our product managers have a similar task as the steel structure behind the facade of a building: They connect the most important parts together.
What does parametric design actually mean? In our first English episode, we talk to architect Jungwho Park. He tells us about his work and his inspirations, and gives us an insight on how the construction industry could change in the future. Sound exciting? It is! Read the summary of the interview here.
When it comes to digitization, the construction industry comes off very badly. Our guest today, Florian Handschuh, is a co-founder of the “klarx” rental platform, and gives us an insight into the digital rental of construction machines. How does this work, and how is this offer being accepted by our conservative industry? Are you just as excited as we are? Read on now!
You can find new start-ups pretty much everywhere these days – except in the construction industry. We have wondered why there are so few start-ups in the construction industry. Is it the basic attitude of the industry towards innovations? Is it more difficult to set up a start-up in this area? Fortunately, we have Moritz Lönhoff as our guest today. He is an expert on start-ups and explains it to us. Curious? Enjoy reading!
What advantages does BIM actually provide for structural analysis? That is the subject of this podcast episode.

In this episode, you will learn more about the different types of BIM, their advantages, and their disadvantages. There is still a gap between theory and practice. Read about the problems that need to be solved in the future and the goals that remain to be achieved.
Everyone knows VR glasses – at least by sight. Many people also know AR, for example, as head-up displays in modern cars. In this case, something is either projected into the environment using the technology or a completely new environment is created. Fascinating!

In fact, the construction industry is having a hard time. Our guest today, Sebastian Langer, talks to us about hurdles and opportunities for greater climate awareness. Are timber structures the solution to all problems? What about modular structures? We are excited!
Many structural engineers who would like to start their careers with us ask themselves this question. It is not unjustified. For a structural or civil engineer, it is not necessarily a matter of course to have points of contact with the common programming languages. Regardless, we are still a software company, of course. So: Is programming skill a prerequisite for employment at Dlubal?
