Depenbrock built a tax office for the BLB in Cologne with offices for 300 employees, meeting rooms, a fully equipped kitchen with adjoining canteen and a janitor’s apartment. The outdoor facilities with parking spaces for around 140 vehicles were also part of the scope of the contract. The building receives its thermal energy from a geothermal system with heat pumps. This required a total of 16 boreholes, each 150 m deep. Heat is transferred via pipes embedded in the concrete, which in turn are fed with hot or cold water by the heat pumps. This so-called concrete core activation can be used both for heating in winter and for cooling in summer and guarantees economical use. The heating is supported by a district heating system. The property is managed by Depenbrock Gebäudemanagement.
Architecture
The object of the functionally described service is the planning and turnkey construction of residential accommodation for approx. 350 residents, a functional building and the corresponding outdoor facilities.
Energy and building concept
As part of the planning process, Depenbrock developed its own building technology concepts for heat generation, distribution and transfer, ventilation, lighting and air conditioning.
The management
Depenbrock is responsible for the maintenance of the building, the technical installations and the outdoor facilities for the first five and ten years respectively.
