“Buildings as a material resource – using the example of a temporary lecture hall building”

Based on a comprehensive theoretical basis, Ms. Wollny puts forward the thesis that buildings must be viewed as a material resource from which materials and building materials can be recovered using renewable energies. Using a temporary lecture hall building for the University of Konstanz, it is shown how recyclable construction methods allow the dismantling of components in order to create an inexhaustible cycle.
The work is characterized in particular by the excellent documentation of urban material potentials as well as the detailed planning of construction and dismantling. A convincing energy and mobility concept rounds off the future-oriented project.
