Paul-Klee-Gymnasium, Gersthofen

A new campus is being built for the Paul-Klee-Gymnasium in Gersthofen near Augsburg. The school building will consist of three connected cubes, each with three storeys. A triple sports hall is also being built on the campus. The building ensemble is planned as a timber hybrid construction, which will save a considerable amount of CO₂ compared to conventional construction methods or bind it in the building materials.
The columns and beams are made of renewable wood-based materials, the wood-concrete composite ceilings of LENO^® cross laminated timber, board stack elements and concrete.

The contract for ZÜBLIN Timber also includes the production and assembly of the roof elements made of LENO^® cross laminated timber and the approx. 1,800m² of exterior walls in timber frame construction. ZÜBLIN Timber is cladding the exterior façade of the school and the sports hall with a ventilated fiber cement façade.
