Stuberholz from Schüpfen was awarded the contract for the timber construction. This had to be adapted to the winding factory buildings. Consequently, the dissipation of the acting forces is not trivial. Different load-bearing directions of the ceiling elements and large spans required a demanding structural structural concept. For the development of this concept and for quality Stuberholz called in Timbatec for the development of this concept and for quality assurance.
