Renovation / new construction farmhouse summer, Büren zum Hof

The project
When unpacking the residential part, it was then discovered that the supporting structure was no longer functional. So this part was also reconstructed down to the ceiling above the ground floor and rebuilt in timber element construction. A special challenge was to fit the newly constructed parts as element construction into the partly uneven existing parts. In the newly constructed building, 5 apartments with 4 ½ rooms each were created.

The construction method
Due to the use of the floors (3 residential floors), the building project was classified as class Q2 in terms of fire protection. Thus a quality management in the project planning and execution could be kept. The supporting structure could be executed with building materials with fire resistance REI30. The exterior walls were built as timber frame construction with insulation with flexible wood fiber insulation boards; the floor slabs with LFE 500 mm lignature. Special attention was required for the floor ceilings, which, as apartment partition ceilings, had to achieve a sound insulation of Ln, w < 55 dB and an airborne sound insulation of R,w > 52 dB. This was achieved with Lignatur silence and additionally a two-layer heavy bitumen structure with a cement underlay.
