Poccistraße station

Poccistraße station is a engineering topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Poccistraße station rather than just read about it. In short: Poccistraße is an U-Bahn station in Munich on the U3 and U6. It was named after Count Franz Pocci.

Key takeaways

Poccistraße station belongs to engineering; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Poccistraße station to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Poccistraße station from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Poccistraße is an U-Bahn station in Munich on the U3 and U6. It was named after Count Franz Pocci.

History The station was opened on May 28, 1978, three years after the rest of the line. It wasn't built with the rest of the line, as a city highway was planned for the space where the surface entrances would have been. After the scrapping of the highway plans, it was built along the operational line with the trains going slower through the construction zone. The station had been in the original plans marked as possible later construction. The original project name was "Zenettistrasse". Before construction it was moved southward to provide connection to a planned S-Bahn station "München Süd", which was never realized. From its opening in 1978 to 1985 the station had a connection to the train station München Süd.

Static issues During construction the certification for the used prestressing steel was revoked. In 1977 cracks in the ceiling were found. In 1978 some of the prestressing steel was found to be broken. In 2015 and 2016 the ceiling was found to have dropped in places up to 39 Millimeters (1.5 Inches). Additional support columns were added in December 2016.

Future Currently there is a discussion in the plans for the newly planned U9 to merge the stations Implerstraße and Poccistraße. The new station would have connection to the planned rail station Poccistraße. If these plans are implemented, both old stations would be closed to the public.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Poccistraße station

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Poccistraße station claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Poccistraße station before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Poccistraße station ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Poccistraße station

In research: Poccistraße station appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Poccistraße station in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Poccistraße station is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1978 establishments in West Germany, Buildings and structures completed in 1978, Munich U-Bahn stations, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Poccistraße station outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
