Ernst Rausch (born July 18, 1889 in Budapest , † October 23, 1977 in Göttingen ) was a German-Hungarian civil engineer.

Rausch went to school in Budapest and studied civil engineering there at the Technical University. In 1912 he was a guest student at the TH Berlin-Charlottenburg , then briefly in construction practice and then assistant at the TH Budapest, where he received his doctorate in 1920. He then worked for construction companies for reinforced concrete in Berlin (including concrete and monorail construction ).

In Berlin he became an expert in structural dynamics (with many publications) and was one of the first to look at the building and the floor as a whole. He did his doctorate again in Berlin and completed his habilitation at the TH Berlin-Charlottenburg, where he lectured on reinforced concrete construction from 1933 to 1945. In addition, from 1932 he was a consulting engineer and test engineer for structural engineering. In 1945 he went from Berlin to Essen, where in 1946 he was entrusted with the construction and management of the structural testing institute. In addition, as a checking engineer, from 1953 onwards he regularly assessed pits and shafts from a static point of view for the Dortmund Oberbergamt.

He wrote a monograph on reinforced concrete construction and the then standard work on structural dynamics (called “Rausch” for short ). He also had a strong influence on standardization in this area (DIN 4024, 4025, 4150) as chairman of the relevant committees.
