Germany – Load-bearing structure design services – 2167-1_VgV-Tragwerksplanung_Grundschule mit Doppelsporthalle Schwäbisch Hall

The reason for the procurement procedure for the structural design is the new construction of the primary school with a double sports hall in Schwäbisch Hall. The starting point was: - primarily the urgent need for expansion and the need to replace the existing site at Wirtsgasse. - Expanded tasks of the school result in changed area requirements - not only quantitatively, but also qualitatively. - These challenges can be described with the following key topics: experiential learning, individual support and differentiation, full-day care, inclusion, staff development, communication, balance of rest and movement, counseling, integration of external partners, etc. - On the other hand, the new school building in combination with a sports hall with offers going beyond classical education should offer a great opportunity for more networking and interaction in the neighborhood. To achieve the best possible architectural and urban planning solution for the new building, the municipal council decided to carry out an architectural realization competition. The competition procedure was completed with the jury session on 20 May 2025. The architectural firm a+r Architekten GmbH emerged as the winner from the procedure. The municipal council has meanwhile commissioned the architectural firm a+r Architekten GmbH with the further planning services of the building planning according to § 34 HOAI. To further implement the construction measure on the basis of the existing competition or preliminary design planning, further planning services are now required. Costs attributable to structural design: Primary school approx. 6.6 million euros net. Double sports hall approx. 2.4 million euros net. The date for the negotiation talks is scheduled for weeks 18-19.
