Fire station south

Stuttgart

The new fire station 1 South in Stuttgart is being built in accordance with the sustainability criteria defined by the state of Baden-Württemberg using a sustainable construction method made from local timber and recycled concrete. In the spirit of the circular economy, it is planned to build the structure using a modular, material-free system construction method. The targeted use of materials and the clearly structured building, which allows maximum interior flexibility, also with regard to future conversions, form an ecologically and economically sustainable concept.

With regard to the requirements for robustness and durability, the basement, which is buried in the ground, and the highly frequented first floor level are constructed using classic reinforced concrete. The supporting structure for the transfer ceiling above the first floor is a prefabricated construction consisting of columns, prestressed beams and suspended ribbed ceilings. The planned ribbed ceilings significantly reduce material consumption compared to a flat construction method. On top of the lower reinforced concrete level is an efficient timber frame construction, consisting of columns bolted together, beams and cross-laminated timber elements resting on top. The extensive use of timber and steel in the rising storeys results in a comparatively light and resource-efficient construction overall.

In front of the building is a filigree construction made of recycled steel, which allows a wide variety of additional uses. From a structural point of view, this upstream supporting structure forms an independent structure that is only connected to the supporting structure of the building at a few points.
