Neubrandenburg (NB): Construction Site Update


Another central element of this blog: construction updates. Tours of places, photo series on current projects, renovations, new construction, demolition, alteration, etc.


We start with a recent tour of the Neubrandenburg construction sites at:)

All photos below are mine and were taken on 26.8.2009.


NEUBRANDENBURG (NB): Construction Site Update August 2009

deposited Blue Click on the links for additional information.


One of the last major renovation gaps in Neubrandenburg downtown is finally closed: The square of Kramer St. (on the aerial photo left), Darrenstraße (front) , Beguinenstraße (on the green courtyard) and Dümperstraße (behind the red corner building). The view from the tower d. House of Culture and Education (locally as "Finger culture known as the the end of August almost completely renovated square from the air.
this to overview, then more shots from above.

The renovation has to exercise great care, as with most renovations of other East German post-war buildings in the center well. The architecture that we see here (especially visible on the 2nd picture below) to scold Socialist Classicism (also as "Stalinism" refers). This style gave the East German cities in the early years of the GDR structure although not to scale buildings, but the historicist buildings fit usually fairly well in the old towns, and were sometimes decorated with ornaments and other classical elements of style ( arcades , bay , dormers , gable etc.) provided.
addition, they created much-needed housing. The Stalinist style lasted a little over the death of Josef Stalin (1953) also, about the year 1960. Then they built mostly modernist, later adding the "efficient" panel technology. But more on that later in a separate special contribution more.

Krämerstraße - red corner building to Dümperstraße [1], street front in different distinct colors with rustifiziertem Ground (an invention of the renovation, it was not before - just like the profile edge on. to greet each case, the buildings thereby gain ! Enormous) [2]

Darrenstraße - were here to some extent the reliefs on the doors restored

Beguinenstraße - formerly tightly enclosed alley in the old town, we are now on the backyard the rehabilitated squares. The socialist new buildings were the former property boundaries and road alignments, unfortunately, often not. After all, it has rehabilitated in the renovation of the old balconies, instead of replacing it. There are, however, added new, where previously there were none.

Darrenstraße - On this side of the street nor appropriate thermal insulation panels. Normally not pleasing buildings, you can arrange here given the good results remediation comfortable with it. The rear of the Market Square Center is almost completed.

The rise (and the ride up the lift) is free.
At the top, is a look at the redesigned market place of Neubrandenburg.
Unfortunately, the result is a more than modest vision, here are the potentials, playful and create something sustainable for the citizens Appealing for the foreseeable future. See for yourself

to scale marketplace Center (ECE-chain, what else) in front of the new square design


In nascent space design in front of PCL ( House of Culture and Education ) [1],
zoom to the fountain system from the PCL [2] - here to be actually the Old Town Hall reconstructed, at least its outline should have included in the system with. Geschichstbewusstsein or local knowledge at the Dresden architect (see Dresdner post office)? Nada.

Marketplace - In the background Tollensesee . The focus is on the East German eyesores in the center, the crude Radisson SAS Hotel [1], zoom to a stairway from the garage, of course, all concrete and glass, alas [2]
DSC01337 DSC01339

Renewed View of the Radisson, with advertising for the lake. Sorry, get that many a visitor to see, very few dare to the battered market place (and move better on the wall or along the wall) [1] There was a new architectural sin: concrete air shaft, like a mushroom from the completely unnecessary parking (capacity: 15%) sprouts. Great sausage! [2]

look at the marketplace-monster by the Stargarder street ( Stargard Gate in the background, right the Mary's Church / Concert Church ) [1], View the parking lot behind the PCL with the underground car park right behind the trees (in the background: Police and Fangelturm) [2]
DSC01354 DSC01351

Turning to more pleasing on: Stargarder street itself has a obtain high-quality new surface, finally pedestrian-friendly curbs and qualitatively useful granite slabs on the footpath. However, we would have to re-pave all the more thoroughly on this page.
DSC01346

And finally a look at the newly-covered St. John's Lutheran Church. The Roof looks like new, whether it's really positive is, sometimes to be seen .. The beautiful patina was lost through the roof restoration, but that is unfortunately often wanted in Germany.

Is There Such Thing As A Puffle

Pampajam 09 - Brutal!

The P-Jam in 2009 was in the truest sense of the word brutal!
Starting with the weather that initially drove me to tears to the eyes - the rainfall, the morning one can doubt everything - until about the level of the skaters in the boonies ramp. The contrast could not be starker.
But in the end is another jam on the stage left, which we really can be proud of. Many, many decent skaters and spectators have found their way into the Pampa and the Pampa burgers were sold out by 8 clock. Luke Trick17 mixed by the sound desk and Bubu on vocals on the horde powerful, even if the neighbors hour later, probably a little had to suffer under the musical tastes of Mr. Markus. He has been know what I mean ;-) could
In the mini ramp we witnessed a level of our international visitors (Welcome to the Austrians) is extremely enhanced. I think one or the other has abschauen some nice tricks. The brutal
prices of our sponsors, Hurley, Vans, DC, DVS, Matix, Lakai ZKHT and went from place 1 to 3 on David Ulf from Vöcklabruck, Maurice "Mo" Schilling from Passau and Frank Herkert, from our Local Eggenfelden. Respect to the three of you, you have the ramp really beautiful and brutal broken!
A brutal thanks to the close of all the volunteers, without which the P-Jam would never be possible-thank, thank you, THANK YOU!

The thing is rising!

only briefly to help, if you here on it should look at short notice.
The P-Jam is taking place - this we have now won through!
While it can ever again be brief showers, but we'll survive, is not it? We are skaters or wimps?

See you later!

to geothermal boreholes Baskets / An alternative

The primary energy source has long been the geothermal heat is used. This seems to be an ecologically and economically sound solution. To obtain the most geothermal boreholes are used. Even in an object designed by us, we wanted to resort to such a heat source. Accordingly, we have several preliminary inquiries with the relevant authorities took. It turned out that our parcel is located in a water protection zone, as our land is near the shore of Lake Zurich. So there is a possibility that we will encounter groundwater. If this is the case, the hole will be broken, and we must find an alternative to the boreholes. So what are the alternatives? Our first thought was to switch to natural gas as our land is already developed accordingly. The client wanted to achieve but the Minergy standard and find an ecological solution.
This was the starting point for finding a real alternative. Accordingly, I was looking for another option, the geothermal energy use, and I came across the geothermal baskets. These are relatively new and not widespread in Switzerland. I, too, these baskets are new. So I try in the following sections to learn how they work? What is the difference to the geothermal probes? And if this is a real alternative in our specific case.


function of Erdwärmkörbe

Each basket consists of a geothermal heat about 50 m long, spiral-wound polyethylene pipe, which is UV resistant and frost resistant. This tube is applied to a basket-shaped scaffold. In the pipe circulates a heat transfer fluid and absorbs the heat of the surrounding earth. The cold heat transfer fluid flows in the outer spiral tube of the basket down to the ground to escape the maximum amount of heat, and then rises in the inner tube in the middle of the basket back up, to prevent cooling. Using a heat exchanger is the heat transfer fluid transfers its heat energy to the working medium of the heat pump, which in turn supplies the heating system with hot water.
The top of the geothermal basket comes to lie at a depth of 1.5 m, so that the heat is in the basket of frost-free zone of the soil. The geothermal baskets are therefore introduced at a depth of 1.5 to 3 m into the ground and are thus unaffected by the daily temperature fluctuations. In addition, do not run the seasonal variations in temperature at this depth in sync with the surface temperature. In this zone, the temperature of the earth in November, the highest (about 13 ° C), ie at the beginning of the heating season, and is deepest at the beginning of the summer (about 7 ° C) when the heater no longer needed or the system may be used for cooling. Because geothermal heat escape
basket plants the soil heat energy, lowers its temperature during the heating season. In the summer months must be adjusted so a new thermal equilibrium. Due to the shallow geothermal baskets regeneration of the soil mainly by solar radiation and the seepage of rain water is possible.
a distance of 4 m between the geothermal baskets is maintained to ensure optimal function the system be guaranteed.
For the installation of geothermal baskets with a shovel dug a trench of 60 cm width and a depth of less than 1 meter. Thereafter, a first hole is dug to a depth of 3.5 m and it installed a geothermal basket, lie about 1.5 m below the upper edge of the earth's surface is. The hole is then filled with excavated material which is yielded by the excavation, or sand, where the quality of the excavated material is insufficient. At a distance of 4 m another hole is dug, into which the next geothermal cage is installed. Experience has shown that optimal geothermal, three baskets are connected in series with each other and the individual groups should be aligned in parallel. If the geothermal baskets are inserted in the ground, they are interconnected and connected to the heat pump (distribution = cold side and the collector = hot side).

comparison geothermal baskets and boreholes

geothermal baskets

+ have a low installation height and are OK about 1.5m below ground
= behavior for a single family home to geothermal probes cost neutral
- Needs more space in terms of area. Compared with horizontal ground collectors is the gain in area but about 40%
- must be the basis of the geothermal baskets at least 2m above the highest water tables are
- There are in Switzerland, no approval process for such plants.
- In Switzerland, hardly used. It lacks experience
+ Can also be installed in the water protection zone
+ relative konstanteTemperatur throughout the year


Erdwärmesonden

- drilling to a depth of 150m - 400m. Depending on power demand
= behavior for a single family home to geothermal probes cost neutral
+ Does area the little room
- If encountered during drilling on groundwater that is, the bore will be canceled.
+ authorization procedures are in place


Resume

based on our project, the geothermal baskets a real alternative. The primary advantage is the low installation depth. In our case this is not helping to push into ground water, or more than 2m are to be above the highest water table. This has been the investigations of geologists shown and are included in his report. Thus, the installation also possible in the groundwater protection zone. From the functional principle, the geothermal loop geothermal heat and the fact hardly different baskets. The need area for the installation of geothermal baskets we have in our property. The only problem is the license for this type of geothermal energy. In our District, as already mentioned, no such authorization procedures are in place. But we are met with the competent authorities in contact and discuss the problem and hope to be allowed to use the geothermal baskets. For our client so we could cost-neutral and environmentally friendly alternative to offer the boreholes.

Can I Go On A Cruise With A Group If I'm Not 21

understeer, oversteer



Challenge: humane control.

great effort, we realize complex home automation systems. Technology is in vogue! We believe in quality of life and ease our conscience towards the environment. The temptation is great, one can hardly resist her: Automation! The systems will, without our intervention, to adapt to our behavior. We are free! But if you look closely, we create another "technical" state of which we depend.

The systems are complex, it requires an increased control effort. Technically, today control almost any wish can be fulfilled. From simple circuits to computer-driven programs with the involvement of several parameters. But which control for whom? Maybe that would have the pleasure of a fully automated computer system - the majority of people that could hardly do something.


following situation we have discussed recently in the office in a small schoolhouse with four class units for mentally disabled young people, are controlled for ventilation and night cooling in summer motorized window sash. In a bigger school you control such a system usually centrally via a networked computer with the system supplier. For a small school building such a system is too expensive and too complex to operate.

For our small school therefore a significant one for economic reasons is already clear. The system must be via electronic switches (bus system) is controlled. To meet the requirements, parameters must be set with priorities be. These parameters arise from the energy requirements (heat loss), weather-related requirements (rain, storm) and the user-specific needs (teachers, students), the latter occupies a special position because it engages in the direct daily life.

in dealings with the user-specific needs, two opposite attitudes. One possibility would be to install in any room Co2 sensors that trigger after a certain amount of CO2 in the air, a shock ventilation. For the indoor air quality that is certainly the best solution, but one which time uncoordinated Open middle of the class has a disturbing, perceptive sensitive especially for young people. Another possibility is the time-coordinated air, triggering the opening of the wings at the end of the lesson. The result is a rhythm, similar to the break ring. The sudden opening of the air wing become such a taken for granted in everyday life.


If we set this requirement as the basic parameters provides our switching system as follows:

basic parameters: coordination, periodic timer to blow air through school hours based.

side parameters I: technical improvements to the energy (heat loss in winter) will prevent airing in unoccupied rooms by Co2 sensor.

side parameters II: night cooling controlled with appropriate outdoor temperature control with outside temperature sensor and timer.

side parameters III: End of the night cooling as it reaches a certain internal temperature using internal temperature sensor or in bad weather and weather station.


I think we were able to achieve the needs of such control, which stops a day to understand the logic.


The control and operation of the home technology requires extremely careful planning. For it is precisely the operation of these things that unconsciously every day strong, usually intervenes in the lives of the residents. Above all, we (future) Architects are required in this topic. Only we know the needs of the client in such an extent that it requires the development of such controls. The conscious use of the control we need to learn.

lime - the merciless money - and energy-hungry

drinking water - healthy and clean


Water is a precious commodity. What in Switzerland, flows from the tap is of high quality, clean and healthy d. In many parts of the country is t be lime is very high and the water quality hard.

Hard water can be drunk safely . Limestone deposited si ch but a b and caused many systems, machinery and equipment damage sensitive. This is particularly true if the what heated water. For example, in boilers, washing machines, coffee machines, showers and pans. Who needs more additional washes with hard water detergent.

How lime enters our drinking water?



in the global water cycle What amounts of water contained are in constant exchange with the materials of their environment. S nce the water because of the sunlight from the sea surface (ect or lakes and rivers.) Ago evaporates, it comes with the NEN air environment in contact with the in the atmosphere phere gases located in the rising water vapor release. This includes vital for un s human S accurate material, such as and carbon dioxide that we exhale. Ase but also Rep. - such as sulfur dioxide from industrial plants - solve in water vapor, resulting in a pH-lowering of the water (acid rain).

the next contact, the water then during passes through the ground. The seepage, slightly acidic rain dissolves on its way from the surface down to the ground minerals from the soil and transported it in dissolved Form on the water works away up in our households.

The greater the amounts of limestone in the soil, the harder the water, the more we rtvolle minerals such as calcium and magnesium are dissolved in water.





How much is the energy loss when the heat exchanger with a millimeter hard lime is occupied?

When using fossil fuels:
1mm calcification = 10% energy loss
2mm calcification = 17% energy loss
3mm calcification = 23% energy loss
4mm lime deposits = 28% energy loss

For electric boilers, the deposits lead to the defective heating elements, resulting in high repair costs with the result.

What flows with lime the drinking water through our water pipes ?
It depends on the amount of water and water hardness.

following assumptions:
water annual consumption for a detached house 200m3

- 20 ° f (11.2 ° dH) flows through our annual 40 kg lime water pipes

- at 30 ° f (16.8 ° dH) flows annually 60 kg of lime through our water pipes

- 40 ° f (22.4 ° dH) flows annually, 80 kg of lime by u ur water pipes



With these enormous quantities of lime is understandable that erleitugen problems Was and heat exchangers are inevitable.



What does a high water hardness for a homeowner?



A too high water hardness is not harmful to health. T seen but not to technical. Due to a high water hardness may arise for the homeowner, a high damage. It's just a matter of time until lime problems occur.

Some examples:

- Difficult to remove calcium deposits on the ceramics in the bathroom and kitchen.

- water damage as a result of defective appliances, and porous hoses.

- calcification or blockage of the pipe installations.

- destruction of electrical appliances such as coffee eMaschines, kettles, water heaters or washing machines.

- Poor cleaning results when washing dishes and glasses.

- High consumption of detergents in the washing machine.

- Increased risk of contamination by enlarged inner surface of the pipe obligations and the hot water tank.











magnetic force instead of chemicals and salt

The magnetic force is the most ecological solution for the prevention of calcification in the conduction system and the production of so-called "soft water".

Running water occur through a strong magnetic field, some physical phenomena that can be up to now by science in theory only explains to some extent. M to estimates that is in the water negatively charged water molecules (H2O) and mineral complexes with a positive charge may be. Then takes place simultaneously with the lime crystals, smashing increased approximately 40-fold and a conversion to "aragonite", a softer calcareous. These much smaller aragonite particles are now also positively charged and remain n in the water permanently in suspension. With a total evaporation of the water as in a pan or on a surface remains a nic ht liable white powder.













can

This Kalkwandler directly on the line be mounted. Condition is that the existing water line, brass, copper, plastic or stainless steel. Only in this way the magnetic field can penetrate the water flowing through properly. For galvanized steel pipes in older buildings, a short piece of pipe by the local plumbing to be replaced with a brass tube.






Why Kalkwandler for example, by the company or Mediagon Maratch

Clean:
Soft water makes for shiny fittings and tiles throughout the house. The water pipes do not calcify. It is a long-term protection against expensive repairs


well-being:
Soft water stimulates the skin with all important minerals. It also saves
Shampoo , bath and shower gel and soap. The wash is gentle and soft and keeps much longer.


Aroma:
With soft water, you can enjoy the tea, coffee and food even more. Also, the pastries are made with ionized water taste more intense. Because the limestone can no longer store the flavors.


Beauty:
Many plants need a soft Water. They thrive better and thus grow faster with healthy beauty. Without the usual unsightly lime spots on flowers and leaves.


reflection of the work process:



I have dealt with this topic because I was confronted with it and I just think you should tell more. About 2 months later a representative of the Company Mediagon to our home and of course wanted to sell his product. At first we were a little skeptical, then he said we could test the unit six weeks free and then decide whether we like it or not. We agreed, and ultimately a positive surprise. The cleaning is much easier now and in the bathroom and the kitchen it has only soft lime. We need less detergent and shampoo and, above all, the drinking water has improved. So I'm personally excited about this device and would recommend it to anyone. For the device speaks also of course that it's not so expensive (1900 francs for a single-family house), and therefore really worth when you see what All of this saves you time, money and nerve!

Why Does My Oovoo Say Signed In But Invisible



Electrochromic window glasses - shading at the push

Electrochromic windows are one of the many innovations being developed now for window glasses. These glasses with electrical voltage, the light transmittance of the glasses can be controlled. The advantage of this solution over the shutters is that the glass is colored blue and transparent, but still.


first How do these windows?

In the following graph of the structure of an electrochromic laminated glass shown.
The electrochromic laminated glass consists of two 4 mm thick laminated glass which, with transparent, conductive oxide coated (eg, fluorine-doped tin oxide) are. One glass is also shown with a tungsten oxide and the other disc with a so-called counter-electrode. Between these two glasses is a lithium-ion conductive polymer film. The two electrodes are connected to the circuit and can be activated by electrical impulses.
the electrodes are activated with electrical current, the lithium ions migrate from the tungsten and darken the glass. Thus, less light and less energy to pass through the glass. The entire process takes about 12 black-minutes.
As the winter in Central Europe Thermal protection can not be neglected, must also have a heat-resistant glass behind this electrochromic element can be built so that the entire window structure takes the following form.

As with "normal" heat-insulated windows, the space between the panes filled with a gas, so that an optimum thermal insulation can be achieved.











second Physical characteristics of electrochromic windows

The physical construction of these window values are summarized in the following table.

2-3-glazing triple glazing
U-value 1.1 0.5 W/m2K W/m2K
g-value (light) 36% 31%
g-value (dark) 12% 10%
light transmission (light) 50% 45
% light transmission (dark) 15% 14%


These figures clearly show that in the darkened state much less light and energy comes through the glass.

third Comparison of the energy transmission with normal glasses
Comparing the energy transmittance of electrochromic windows with normal windows, the result (purple: electrochromic windows, blue: normal window), the values shown in the graphic below.

The flux of electrochromic windows in winter compared with the values for normal windows. In summer, the energy transmission is much lower because of the built-in possibility of the shading and the smaller g-value. In order to make these windows a good review for summer heat protection and reducing energy consumption, because to be aired due to the lower summer heat input significantly less needs.



4th Comfort


The above example shows how these electrochromic glasses make the construction. The blue color is typical for electrochromic windows, the shading effect is clear. These windows are good for a shade of indirect sunlight. Less suitable are those windows for direct sunlight. these effects can be compared with the sunglasses, which also offers little protection for direct sun light. For this reason, can not yet dispense with the conventional sun protection, eg with shutters to the electrochromic windows, which of course significant effects on the economy has electrochromic window.
