📋 Tender Overview
On the occasion of the fourth specialist congress timber construction, Minister Peter Hauk emphasizes the importance of public construction projects in modern timber construction for a sustainable building culture. Current questions of the future, such as building the future and the economical handling of scarce resources, it is very clear: It is now time to think about and to establish a new building culture too expensive, too expensive, too. Material intensely means to build in terms of climatic, and with a look at this. , on the occasion of the in Friedrichshafen in Lake Constance. For the fourth time in Friedrichshafen, the international specialist congress for sustainable construction with wood is taking place under the roof of the. This year, the focus is on creating affordable living space, the implementation of sustainable construction projects and building - tasks that will increasingly come up with municipalities in the coming years. Holzbau in Baden-Wurttemberg based on model projects with well-implemented building boards of the public sector and from the partner regions around Lake Constance it is shown how the municipal building can succeed with wood. Baden-Wurttemberg has been reaching the highest timber construction quota in the federal comparison for years. Public construction projects are important ambassadors and role models The potential imitators show how the change towards a sustainable building culture can be designed and what is already possible with the material wood, said minister Peter Hauk. The representatives from Switzerland, Austria, Bavaria and Baden-Wurttemberg exchanged ideas about the availability and sustainable use of wood in the coming decades against the background of climate change and the associated adjustment of the forests. Model region for Carbon Removals A major role in the storage of carbon from the atmosphere in wooden buildings, so -called. Minister Peter Hauk emphasized in this context: Wood and building with wood has a considerable potential because it represents a functioning carbon removal method, with which directly effective carbon sponsor can be built up in the form of wooden structures, which immediately cause more climate protection and contribute to the decline in carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere. Therefore we build Baden-Wurttemberg as a European Model region for carbon removal with wood and make the storage evaluable. In addition, only timber construction offers the possibility of solving pressing construction tasks, such as the creation of new living space. The forest conversion, which has been successful in Baden-Wurttemberg for decades, leads to a tree species shift in the long term, so that the deciduous tree proportion increases. Most of needle woods are currently being used in construction. With this we have created a startup smithy that highly scales innovative approaches to use of hardwood in production maturity, emphasized Minister Hauk. In addition, Baden-Wurttemberg is pursuing the technology leader in constructive use of hardwood. Some of the lighthouse projects for building with hardwood are presented at the congress. The use of hardwood is more demanding than softwood, but offers, for example, considerable potential in the lower component dimensioning due to higher strengths. Student Prize Baden-Wurttemberg of the Congress distinguishes students and students for their outstanding final and semester work in timber construction. Wood construction culture book From the matter to the built As part of the specialist congress, a new timber construction culture book is also presented, which was created on the initiative of the timber construction offensive Baden-Wurttemberg and has recently been published. The book illuminates the forestry, technological and building cultural developments in the country. It shows the beauty and the cultural depth of the wooden building material in an impressive way and is intended to contribute to continuing the building culture in the country. Wood construction offensive Baden-Wurttemberg Baden-Wurttemberg has been reaching the highest timber construction rate in federal comparison for years and is considered a benchmark for building with wood in Germany. With the Baden-Wurttemberg timber construction offensive, the country promotes a climate-friendly and sustainable building culture with wood. In addition, Baden-Wurttemberg is to be positioned as a model region and impulse provider for climate-friendly timber construction as a carbon removal measure. International cooperation are also initiated and expanded as part of the BW timber construction offensive. With fundingGrammen, educational measures and the support of research projects are set for the transformation of the construction sector and the increased use of renewable raw materials. The timber construction specialist congress will take place for the fourth time on the initiative of Baden-Wurttemberg in cooperation with the Bodensee-Nerrainers.
