• The topping-out ceremony for the new modular building at the University of Augsburg was celebrated on the main campus in the presence of State Minister Christian Bernreiter.

• The new research and laboratory building, consisting of a three-storey office building supplemented by a two-storey laboratory wing, was constructed in record time.

• Through the use of wood in the facade design, a green facade and the heat supply via district heating, this building relies on an environmentally conscious construction method.

• Within just six months of construction, the modules were put together and the building now shines in its final form.

• This rapid construction progress is not only a technical success, but also an important step in the modular construction offensive as part of the high-tech agenda.

• The architecture and general planning was carried out by WGA ZT GmbHAs part of the general planning team, we were responsible for structural planning, building physics and building services.
