Offices & Multifunctional buildings
Print
Deerns annually realises dozens of offices and retail projects. The
number of high-rise projects is growing steadily. Technical
installations are an essential condition for the habitability or
usability of high-rise buildings and are major determining factors for
their quality. Safety guarantees, proper dimensioning of machine rooms,
shafts and lifts, and efficient gable maintenance are crucial.
Particular issues such as an optimal combination of energy systems,
silent water discharge, and preventing thermal draughts are also in
good hands with Deerns. The early tuning between architects,
contractors and consultants is at its most critical here; the desired
design margins have to be established in the preliminary design phase
to make a project feasible.
An integrated approach with the architect can be achieved at various
aggregation levels. Integration can take place at a building-technical
level; consider for instance climate walls, climate ceilings, or
concrete activation. This level involves fitting installations in with
building-technical elements: physical integration. At a higher level,
integration can also be at an architectural level. In cooperation with
the architect, the possibilities that passive solar energy, water,
building mass, etc offer, can be interwoven into a total approach;
functional integration.
