Ebersberg: Building schools instead of whining - halved and faster!

In the district of Ebersberg, a lot is currently happening in the school building. A total of three school projects with an original budget of around 240 million euros are on the agenda. Now you are planning to implement these projects not only much faster, but also for half of the originally calculated costs. The decisions that will be made is expected to be made by the district committees in July, with the financial feasibility still being tested, as the Süddeutsche

A first focus is on the Gautinger Realschule, where due to construction longiting that is due to an insolvent company, the entire glass facade must be replaced. Furthermore, the expansion of the Kirchseeon grammar school is planned. Here the original costs were 30 million euros, plus 8.5 million for a provisional. The new cost estimate for the expansion is now 15.5 million euros. A rethinking in the concept design led to a reduction in the main area of ​​the main area by 30%, which in turn brings savings when investing and maintenance.

Innovative approaches for sustainable construction projects

In order to minimize the risks of the allocation to construction companies, the district relies on a general contractor who assumes overall responsibility and guarantees a capped construction sum. In addition, the new building is built in full wood construction with a photovoltaic system. This sustainable construction concept speak for a modern approach that stands in accordance with the growing requirements for environmentally conscious construction. The idea of ​​sustainability is how the nevaris nowadays, and promotes the fulfillment of the EU taxonomy to achieve the standards required by the EU.

In addition to the projects in Kirchseeon, the construction of a new high school in Poing and a vocational school center in Grafing-Bahnhof is also on the planning list. Original cost estimates for the Poing high school were 105 million euros, but could be reduced to 55 million. The vocational school center, once estimated at 105 million, is now planned with 46 million euros. The district council decision in July is eagerly awaited, and District Administrator Robert Niedergessäß is optimistic that the approval will be granted.

A look at Hamburg

The challenge of implementing public construction projects efficiently and inexpensively is not a new phenomenon. A look at the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg shows the difficulties and the often missing transparency in such activities. The construction period of the Elbphilharmonie was nine and a half years and was characterized by delays and cost increases. Architectural critic Gerhard Matzig criticizes that the actual costs are often talked about. These are challenges that those responsible in the Ebersberg district also have to face.

The completion of the new schools will be assessed as feasible by 2030. It remains to be seen how the planned measures in Ebersberg will ultimately change the educational landscape and the cost structure of building. But one thing is certain: the gap between desire and reality in the construction industry will remain an issue that has to be discussed again and again.
