The aim of the Tomography Portal "Gulliver" project is to use computed tomography to deepen the understanding of the load-bearing and deformation behaviour of concrete members under failure. For the first time, it enables investigations on real-scale building components subjected to load increase while performing high-resolution computed tomography scans. Funded by a Major Instrumentation Initiative promoted by the German Research Foundation (DFG), this tomography portal is a central component of the Civil Engineering Equipment Center (BIG) at the RPTU.
Project management: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Matthias Pahn
