Warehouse Building, Hesse

The project aims to provide an efficient and secure storage solution for materials and production goods, enabling smooth logistics and just-in-time delivery for manufacturing. The engineering firm was responsible for the complete planning and implementation, from site assessment to structural calculations and the development of detailed fabrication and assembly plans. Using a precise 3D model, all architectural and construction aspects were analyzed in advance, streamlining the planning process and ensuring accurate execution. The building's structural design meets the highest load-bearing and safety requirements specific to industrial warehouse facilities. All fabrication and assembly plans were tailored to the site's specific conditions to guarantee efficient construction.

Challenges

One of the major challenges was integrating the new warehouse into the existing industrial infrastructure. Tight spatial constraints and ongoing operations required meticulous construction logistics planning to avoid disruptions. Additionally, the complex structural requirements—particularly wind and snow loads in the Bavaria region—demanded exceptional stability and safety measures. Timely coordination of trades was another critical challenge, addressed through close collaboration and regular team alignment.

Project phases

Requirements Analysis

All project requirements for the warehouse were identified and documented, including the industrial plant's operational needs, specific storage criteria, structural/logistical demands, and permitting prerequisites.

3D Laser Scanning Survey

State-of-the-art 3D laser scanning precisely mapped the existing terrain, adjacent structures, and infrastructure to create a detailed as-built record.

As-Built Modeling

A 3D digital model of the site and surroundings was generated from scan data to inform the planning process.

Preliminary Design (LPH 3)

A comprehensive conceptual design was developed in Phase 3, meeting all functional and architectural requirements as the basis for permit applications.
