LP33-34 Rostock
East-west berth / Am Hansakai in Rostock
Berths 33 and 34 on the east side of Pier II in Rostock seaport are located in harbour basin B and have been primarily part of the general cargo area since they were built in 1960. At times, they also serve as a waiting and outfitting area.
Berths 33 - 34 are among the oldest berths in the seaport of Rostock. As the sheet pile walls of the berths are at the end of their technical service life, a new replacement is planned by means of approx. 260 m of pre-driven and back-anchored sheet pile wall, new quay beam and crane runway beam as well as surface construction of the quay facility of berths 33 - 34. The client is Rostock Port GmbH.
The project is aiming for DGNB "Sustainable Construction Site" certification from the German Sustainable Building Council.

Certified by the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB)
Ed. Züblin AG is pursuing several goals with this project: A sustainable construction site organization, the conservation of resources as well as the minimization of emissions, responsibility for the health and well-being of the builders, the cultivation of good neighbourliness and, of course, high-quality construction. For this, Ed. Züblin AG was the first company to be recognized by the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB).

Selected measures in the project
-
Concreting
Concreting is carried out using a concrete pump, which is continuously filled with concrete by truck mixers. This ensures high performance and therefore rapid completion of the concreting sections. Due to the short duration and high performance, the noise impact can be significantly reduced.
-
Reinforcement
The reinforcement bars installed on the construction site are completely prefabricated in the supplier's factory, i.e. the bars are matched to the exact installation location on the construction site in terms of length and shape. This eliminates noise emissions caused by shaping and adjusting the reinforcement.
-
Measures to prevent pollution from the construction site
The project is located in the port/industrial area, so there are few residents. Nevertheless, the aim is to avoid or reduce the impact of the construction site as much as possible.
-
Use of energy-efficient construction machinery
It is planned that all motorized equipment and machinery used on the construction site, e.g. construction machinery, compressors and lifting equipment, with an output of over 75 kW will be documented and it will be recorded which EU level (energy efficiency class/EEK) they meet in order to ensure that the most energy-efficient construction machinery possible is used.
-
Regional companies and suppliers
Wherever possible, regional companies and suppliers are used to reduce transportation and working distances. For example, services such as earthworks or demolition work, which require a high level of construction machinery, were awarded to local companies.
-
Health and social affairs
The risk of accidents is reduced through the creation and application of comprehensive health and safety measures. Hazard analyses are used to identify potential hazards for each trade in advance and possible prevention measures are defined.
-
Quality of the construction work
Before the order is placed, material declaration lists are used to check whether the building materials and components comply with the recognized rules of technology and the contractual agreements. A target/actual comparison of the delivered building materials is carried out by means of incoming goods inspection. Before and during the execution of construction work, compliance with technical regulations is documented using quality inspection plans.
-
Waste management
An effective waste management system will be set up for the project. Targeted waste sorting and separation will take place on the construction site. This ensures that the resulting construction waste is properly disposed of and/or recycled. The individual waste containers are provided with a sign with the name and a picture of the material to be disposed of.
