On 2 May, DBZ Deutsche BauZeitschrift Magazine released its latest edition focused on structural engineering. Our colleague Alexander Hofbeck contributed the article "Digitalisierung in der Tragwerksplanung — Zwischen Effizienz und Entfremdung." This piece raises several intentionally provocative questions: How are digital methods reshaping the AEC industry, especially in structural engineering? Are the promises of increased efficiency merely empty words from clever marketing departments? Why do we struggle with certain topics, like BIM implementation, while employing AI assistants appears easy? What changes are occurring, for better or worse? The article is aimed at designers rather than specialists and is rooted in present realities while providing perspectives for the future.
