Professor Emeritus Dipl.-Ing. Wolfgang Winter
Professor Emeritus Wolfgang Winter taught Structural Design and Timber Engineering at TU Wien from 1994 until 2017.
Educated in both civil engineering and architecture, he has worked in teaching, research and structural design in Austria, Switzerland and France. Earlier in his career, he collaborated with the timber engineer Julius Natterer and held academic positions in Lausanne, Paris and Biel.
At TU Wien, his teaching and research focused on timber and hybrid structures, multi-storey timber construction, resource-efficient building systems and the development of new structural components. His work has consistently brought architectural design and structural engineering into close dialogue.
Winter also contributed to the development of the technical foundations for multi-storey timber construction in Vienna, served as Academic Director of the postgraduate programme Urban Wood and was co-chair of the 2016 World Conference on Timber Engineering in Vienna.
