Schulzentrum Breslauer Straße (SZB)

Project description

New construction of a five-stream high school, a five-stream secondary school, two triple sports halls, a cafeteria, and outdoor sports facilities as a public-private partnership (PPP) project. As the PPP partner of the city of Nuremberg, WBG KOMMUNAL GmbH is responsible for the planning, construction, financing, and 25-year management of the school center.

The school buildings are arranged along Breslauer Straße, creating a prestigious address for the school center. The sports halls and cafeteria are located behind the schools along the railway line. The 4-story school buildings on Breslauer Straße are connected by an elongated 2-story joint structure. The buildings are slightly offset from each other, creating a enclosed forecourt on Breslauer Straße, which is separated in the northeast from the break area and entrance area of the Berufliche Oberschule Nürnberg B13 (BON for short) in the east and opens to the southwest towards the main entrance. Inside the property, there is a long campus strip that opens up to the BON. The campus strip serves to connect the new school locations and thus acts as a link between the campus-like arrangement of solitary buildings. The two three-court sports halls are combined in one building and form the western end of the campus area.

Location

Breslauer Straße 300-304, 90471 Nuremberg (former Maul & Belser/Prinovis site)

Energy standard

Climate-neutral plus-energy building with a bivalent energy generation concept using geothermal energy with brine-water heat pumps, photovoltaics, and district heating to cover peak loads.

The technical installations for the schools are located on the roof surfaces and are largely concealed by a raised parapet. The entire roof area of the sports halls is used as an installation area for photovoltaic elements.

Special features

Green roof areas, the preservation of existing trees as far as possible, and a large number of new tree plantings, as well as the highest possible soil permeability in the form of lawns and grass pavers, ensure that the school center is heavily landscaped.
