The project
The order Schwarz Gerüstbau AG is building a new company headquarters in Schüpbach. The commercial hall includes a warehouse section with gallery floor as well as an office section according to Minergie standard. At the client's request, the warehouse was to be planned in such a way that it could be erected within the company. In order to remain flexible in the event of growth, the building also had to be designed in such a way that a further storey could be added at any time.
The construction method
The commercial hall was realized mainly in timber construction. The access core with staircase is made of solid construction. This serves both for bracing and for the storage of combustible materials. The unheated storage hall is realized with a primary support system of trusses and a secondary support system with suspended roof beams. The exterior walls were built in stud construction with bracing OSB panels.
