07/16/07: 8+ - speculative research
Eight storeys or more made of wood – the “acht plus” (“8+”) project conducted by schluder architektur in Vienna (member of plan 4 21) has the goal to proove, if and how this vision can be implemented into structural engineering.
This highly complex issue will be dealt with in form of a feasibility study, in order to point out new perspectives and assume their technical implementation potentials within structural engineering. It is a highly challenging task, requiring a cooperation in a highly qualified research team, consisting of structural engineering experts, as well as professionals sensitive for the financial and ecological aspects of the project.
As a result of the 8+ project a recapitulatory evaluation of chances for structural engineering by buildings over eight storeys will be presented to the public on the basis of a concrete example. The latter will be introduced as a showcase solution in a media report.
