Once the architectural design has been determined, construction solutions are needed to execute their form and shape their character. Our teams collaborate closely and extensively with specialist professionals to develop the geometries, plan supporting structures, define materials and connections, and determine the necessary fire protection measures.

For safety and high-quality implementation

For specific engineering tasks, we call on experts from our extensive specialist planning network. This includes support structure planning with static dimensioning, materials selection and questions of building ecology such as heat, damp, sound and noise protection. And dependable fire protection programmes and certification according to the applicable regulations. Today, these regulations allow the use of timber in almost all buildings. Our engineering services ensure implementation of the highest quality for your building plans and guarantee the safety of the future building. No matter whether your building project is a school building, a residential complex, a complete winter service facilities or is planned for other uses.
