WORLD
OF PORR

Some buildings tell stories from the past. That is why it is so important to preserve them for the future.

Harald Hobacher, head of the timber engineering department, explains why wood is so effective in hybrid structures, and how it makes projects particularly Green and Lean.

Architecture is always based on the available building area. But sometimes human ingenuity overcomes nature.

The LeopoldQuartier in Vienna is being built using a timber-hybrid construction method. And Green and Lean through and through - in construction and operation. One key to success: good cooperation.

There are buildings that don't even exist. At least that's what you might think. Whether crooked, squashed or upside down - the buildings in our top 5 are real. Well, almost.

PORR is building a new mountain station and viewing tower on the Titlis glacier in Switzerland. Even ice and snow can't stop us.

From mushrooms to popcorn - research is constantly testing new building materials. And while they are unlikely to replace steel and concrete any time soon, it is worth taking a look outside the box.

It is as old as PORR: in 1869, the first railway line from Bucharest to Giurgiu opened in Romania. 155 years later, we are modernising this important connection – including Slab Track Austria.

As a production facility and service centre for all of PORR markets, the Resources Competence Centre is unique. A report from Vienna-Simmering.

Gold coins, paintings, graves - construction work often brings to light true treasures from days long gone. This also applies to PORR projects. Here are our top 7.

When the FAIR accelerator centre in Darmstadt is completed, it will be one of the largest research projects in the world. PORR is also innovative, having used a special type of concrete.

As a construction company, you build for all people. The idea of inclusion must therefore always be taken into account. We show you how to do this and what to look out for.

When you renovate taxiways, you need flawless organisation that leaves nothing to chance. And a lot of experience. PORR Verkehrswegebau GmbH shows how it's done.

Without a crystal ball, but using specialised software, pde Integrale Planung can look into the future. And simulate the conditions in buildings in order to optimise them in advance.

Prefabricated modules are intended to drive forward sustainable, affordable construction. We show the advantages, best practices and the limits.
