Project description

Construction:
The cross section of the entire construction   is created in the shape of a wing. The lecture room is situated above the entrance area as well as the administration offices and the library. The external steel skeleton of the lecture room rests on two welded box girders, which take the load from the main structure as well as the adjacent stress into V-shaped supports. A special lightweight construction was used for the floor in the lecture-room; this as well as the use of precast floors reduces the dead weight of the construction. Two round columns are used in the construction unit to assist the structural steelwork from gaining damage by intense traction powers. Next to the lecture-room you will find various spaced steel connection bridges which are the transition to the massive construction. The rear part is made out of pre finished wooden and reinforced concrete roof construction slabs. Prefabricated timber facade elements were used as vertical outer skin which are stretched over two projectiles.
