Heinrich Leitz
Heinrich Friedrich Leitz (born July 6, 1886 in Sandhofen , † April 22, 1930 in Graz ) was a German civil engineer.
Leitz studied at the TH Karlsruhe with his diploma in 1910 and his doctorate under Friedrich Engesser in 1914. He was Engesser's assistant and completed his habilitation in 1922 at the TH Munich . Leitz worked in a leading position as an engineer in the construction industry, including building the railroad from Aleppo to Baghdad (the Baghdad Railway ). In 1928 he became a full professor for building mechanics at the TH Graz .
In addition to railway construction, he was also active in bridge construction and building construction. He was also known for his contributions to the statics of reinforced concrete. For example, he wrote the sections on slab statics in the 1926 concrete calendar and on bowls and containers in the 1931 concrete calendar (continued in the concrete calendar by Günter Worch after his death ).
