Title:	Gradientenbeton - Numerische Entwurfsmethoden und experimentelle Untersuchung gewichtsoptimierter Bauteile
Abstract:	Die Gradierung von Betonbauteilen durch eine kontinuierliche Veränderung von Materialeigenschaften wie Porosität, Festigkeit oder Steifigkeit in bis zu drei Raumrichtungen ermöglicht eine Anpassung des Bauteilinneren an das vorherrschende statische oder bauphysikalische Anforderungsprofil. Diese Anpassung kann zur Massenminimierung und zur Erzielung multifunktionaler Eigenschaften eingesetzt werden. Numerische Entwurfsmethoden liefern das Gradientenlayout, welches als digitaler Bauplan für diese Bauteile dient. Im vorliegenden Artikel werden Versuche an gradierten Balken im Originalmaßstab beschrieben. Sie erlauben eine Aussage über das Tragverhalten sowie das Masseneinsparpotenzial gradierter Betonbauteile im Vergleich zu Bauteilen aus Normalbeton. Anschließend werden die Versuchsergebnisse mithilfe numerischer Simulationen nachvollzogen. Die so kalibrierten Modelle bilden die Ausgangsbasis für die Entwicklung numerischer Entwurfsmethoden, die auf einem Topologieoptimierungsansatz basieren. Functionally Graded Concrete - Numerical Design Methods and experimental studies on mass minimized components Functional gradation of precast elements makes it possible to align the internal composition of structural components with the specified structural and thermal performance requirements by continuously altering the characteristics of the material, including its porosity, strength or rigidity, in up to three spatial dimensions. This principle can be applied to minimise the mass of the element and to create multi-functional properties. Numerical design methods are used to develop the gradation layout that serves as a digital blueprint for such components. This paper describes true-to-scale tests performed on functionally graded beams. These tests make it possible to derive conclusions with respect to the elements' structural behaviour as well as weight savings that can potentially be achieved compared to structural components made from normal concrete. Test results are subsequently replicated by numerical simulations. The models calibrated in this step establish the basis to develop numerical design methods that rely on the principle of topology optimization.
