Pollmeier administration centre

The new administration building for the company Pollmeier in Creuzburg (Germany) stands out due to its extraordinary architecture, and was awarded the “Fassadenbaupreis” (German facade construction award) in 2002. At the same time, it is a highly energy-efficient building; for example, the window surface areas are dimensioned according to the cardinal direction.

Material data for structurally and hygrothermally optimised renovation

When renovating old buildings, problems such as mould formation or corrosion often occur that usually stem from a lack of knowledge. For example, there is often insufficient knowledge about the moisture characteristics of the construction materials used in the original construction and those used today. MASEA, a materials database that is freely accessible online, now provides detailed hygrothermal material characteristics for a wide selection of typical construction materials.
