Südstadtbogen Neu-Ulm

Location Von-Hünefeld-Straße 20-24 in Neu-Ulm
A mixed-use neighborhood development is being built on the 16,800 m² site along Von-Hünefeld-Straße .

This consists of a 13-storey office tower, the so-called Südstadtturm, an eight-storey commercial and residential building in the north-east with a further 13 residential buildings with four to eight storeys, arranged in a comb-shaped layout.

A total of 450 apartments will be built on the site. A shared 3-storey underground car park is planned beneath the buildings. Paved open and green spaces are to be created between the buildings on the underground car park ceiling.

The project is aiming for DGNB "Sustainable Building 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 organisation, the conservation of resources as well as the minimisation 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 recognised by the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB).

Selected measures in the project

  • Finished parts

    The extensive use of prefabricated parts (filigree slabs, cavity walls, parapets, columns, beams and stairs) enables a shorter construction time to be achieved. These prefabricated orders also reduce the amount of waste. The continued use of flat elements (prefabricated masonry) reduces the use of noisy stone saws to an absolute minimum. Waste cuttings/disposal is also reduced.

  • Saving resources and reducing emissions through LEAN Construction

    As part of the lean approach, a production plan with call-off dates (e.g. insulation) was created. Construction production planning is detailed on a weekly basis and adapted to actual production progress. Changes in the construction process are constantly taken into account and just-in-time deliveries can be better implemented. Repeat orders and new orders due to late changes to the plan are avoided.

  • Measures to prevent pollution from the construction site

    By using prefabricated reinforcement, buckets for concreting, 90% prefabricated parts and close coordination with the client, the loads from the construction site are avoided or reduced as much as possible.

  • Energy management in construction

    Energy-saving technologies are being sought in the construction process, e.g. LED technology for the construction lighting, energy-saving radiators and appliances in the construction site containers.

  • Optimized concrete delivery

    In order to be able to coordinate the concreting in the best possible way, the call-offs are made in close coordination with the concrete plant. Particularly in the case of large-scale concreting, the delivery quantities can be coordinated with the concrete pump, thus reducing the waiting times of the concrete mixers. Production times are optimized and noise emissions are reduced. In addition, residents are informed in good time about large-scale concreting operations.

  • Optimized deep foundation

    Thanks to an optimized deep foundation for the underground car park, it is possible to limit the necessary dewatering to a few weeks thanks to the sealed excavation pit. In summary, this leads to lower power consumption for dewatering and a reduction in the impact on the city's groundwater balance.

  • Logistics and waste disposal

    In order to reduce the transportation of materials to the construction site, the aim is to ensure that delivery vehicles are fully loaded. Construction residues and waste are separated on the construction site and for disposal. Due to the very high degree of prefabrication of the components and the generous construction site set-up area, it is possible to almost fully utilize the transports and reduce the number of transports to and from the construction site to a minimum.
