Ludwigsparkstadion in Saarbrücken, home of the 1. FC Saarbrücken, was erected as an athletics and soccer stadium back in 1953 ⚽. To meet the requirements of a modern soccer stadium, it was modernized and converted extensively. The grandstand structure from 1976, known as 'Victor's Grandstand', had to be preserved. Now it's complemented by three new stands, which are covered by membrane roofs. They allow for the maximum openness and thus lightness.

Since two years, the information center at Ruhestein offers its visitors not only insights on a large exhibition area, but also panoramic views over the Black Forest from its spectacular skywalk. 🌲 The design by @sturm_wartzeck takes its inspiration from the concept of deadwood trunks stacked on top of each other. Also, the facade of wooden shingles is based on the local nature of the Black Forest, so that the building blends harmoniously into its surroundings despite its size. Designed as timber frameworks, the main structure features slender beech beams or large cross-laminated timber panels. For an efficient construction process, roof and floor elements were pre-assembled in the workshop. As a highlight, the Skywalk, a truss bridge made of glulam, connects the sloping observation tower and the visitor center.

For more than 20 years, our membrane roof covers the Volkspark Stadium in 📍 Hamburg, Germany. The structure is based on the spoke wheel principle and consists of an inner tension ring and an outer compression ring. Characteristic elements for the canopy are its 40 steel masts, located behind the grandstand around the stadium carrying the outer compression ring. To meet the requirements for the UEFA European Football Championship in 2024, the stadium's technical infrastructure is being modernized. This also requires the reinforcement of the existing roof structure and the subsequent replacement of the membrane.

Haoxiang Lake Park in 📍Shenzhen, China, was created on the site of a former power plant. There, the so-called Rainbow Bridge creates a connection between the developed running trails and footpaths across the lake and river arms. A generous observation platform on the south side of the bridge provides an adequate buffering to the industrial area located in the north. The bridge's piers are placed with minimal impact on the natural area and thus, do not interfere with the footpaths below the pedestrian bridge.

Even with all our efforts, CO2 emissions from our office operations cannot be avoided completely. We compensate remaining emissions with partners that are working on reducing or binding CO2 emissions.
In 2021, our compensation partners were @africa_greentec and positerra.
Africa GreenTec offers solar energy solutions mainly in rural areas in Africa, empowering people to achieve more self-determination and growth through sustainable energy solutions. We supported Africa GreenTec with technical expertise from our sbp sonne team.
positerra helps local farmers to develop humus on agricultural land. This facilitates a sustainable agricultural cultivation process and binds CO2 in the soil. We supported positerra through financial support.

The #pedestrianbridge over the B10 in 📍Stuttgart, Germany continues the pedestrian and cycle path route as an extension of our suspended footbridge under the Neckar Bridge coming from Bad Cannstatt in the direction of Stuttgart city center. Embedded in complex surroundings of the traffic junction, a calm and elegant solution was chosen for the new structure. The new bridge structure spans the U14 light rail line and the B10 federal highway with two arch like strutted frame construction. A height difference of approx. 4.0 m must be overcome over the entire length of the bridge. The superstructure, and thus the walking surface, is formed by a trapezoidal box girder cross-section, which together with the supports of the monolithically connected steel stems forms a five-span continuous girder. The two shallow arches meet at their intersection on a hollow steel box pillar. Forming two shallow arches below the superstructure, the struts become one with the superstructure at midspan.

As the first cable-stayed road bridge in Greece, the Evripos Bridge connects the island of Euboea with the mainland via the street of Evripos. 🌉
A technical challenge during the design and construction phase was the extremely slender longitudinally and transversally pre-stressed concrete deck with only 45 cm constant thickness, providing sufficient stiffness to abandon any longitudinal girder. Therefore, the multi-strand stay-cables have a closer spacing and were directly used to support the free cantilever formworks during deck construction. For higher earthquake resistance, the concrete deck is monolithically connected to the towers. Any bearing forces due to temperature differences can be absorbed by the slender towers and the flexible superstructure. Pendulum supports were used on the piers at the end of the bridge to transfer the uplifting forces into the supporting structure.

Once the CO2 emissions of our offices were measured and the potential sectors for CO2 savings were identified, our Sustainability Team developed a strategy on how to reduce our emissions. In recent years, most of our carbon emissions have been caused by our business travel.
However, the COVID19 pandemic and the related travel restrictions proved us that our project work can also be successfully carried out using digital meetings. As a consequence, we continue this development and aim for an ambitious reduction of our air travel by about 40% (reference year: 2019). In addition to our travel policy, however, our office processes are also being further optimized in terms of energy and paper consumption as well as waste generation.
Even though sbp's carbon emissions per employee (covering office-related emissions only) are well below country average (covering all emissions of a person) for most locations, there is still room for improvement especially when comparing to limits for the global 2° goal. We are therefore commited to constantly work on further reduction of our carbon emissions and improvement of our sustainable office operations in general.

To enable the fastest possible transport of critically injured patients to the emergency room, a helipad was added to the Bundeswehrkrankenhaus (army hospital) in Ulm. 🚁 In order to save space, the helipad was installed on the rooftop of the existing west wing. The construction of the platform consists of three load-bearing elements. The cantilevered elevator and staircase made of reinforced concrete serves as static bracing and as a support for the overall structure. In addition, there are two composite steel columns that serve as vertical supports and carry the actual landing platform. The clamp-like design allows the loads to be transferred directly into the ground.

We are still thrilled to see the completed aerial walkway at @flysea opened to passengers in time for summer travel! ✈️ With an overall length of 780 feet, the soaring cable-stayed walkway is now the world’s longest structure over an active taxilane. Elevated to a height of 85ft above the tarmac, the bridge structure reflects an optimized king-post truss system with tie-down cables to minimize the thrust at the base of V-shaped piers.
