Research buildings
Cutting-edge research requires optimum infrastructural conditions in order to remain internationally competitive
The dynamics of science are constantly increasing. This requires an increasingly faster and more flexible coverage of needs in order to continue to ensure the excellence of the Max Planck Society (MPG) in the scientific field. The MPG must therefore push the boundaries of construction in order to position itself as an excellent 'expert public building contractor'.
The external demands on buildings are increasing. Sustainability, energy efficiency, rapid availability of buildings and at the same time extremely high requirements regarding documentation and transparency of data for a large number of different recipients (funders, building security, controllers, auditors, etc.) require new approaches and new ways.
BIM, modular buildings, general contractor contracts, networking of various IT systems for better project management and pilot projects for the use of building type E in research buildings are just a few keywords.
Forward-looking building concepts, in which the high needs of those appointed are taken into account in an economical construction method, also from the perspective of sustainability, make the construction of the MPG research facilities so unique.
