Germany – Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services – Neubau einer 2-zügigen Grundschule mit Erweiterungsmöglichkeit auf 4-Zügigkeit in der VG Rhein-Selz

The Verbandsgemeinde Rhein-Selz plans to shape the future educational landscape and intends to build a new, modern, two-stream primary school in hybrid timber construction, including a school sports hall. The building should be designed from the outset so that a later expansion to a four-stream school is both structurally and functionally feasible. In this context, the design of the site, taking into account a future expansion, should be planned in such a way that disruptions to the ongoing school operations are minimized. Another central aspect of the planning is the proactive consideration of a holistic media introduction, which includes both the current new construction and the possible expansion. In addition, sustainability aspects, such as rainwater management, are an integral part of the planning, without a specific certification (BNB, DGNB, etc.) being prescribed. The location of the school is fixed. The new building will be erected on plots 261 and 262 in Dalheim, Dexheimer Straße (K39). The areas are currently used for agricultural purposes. The aim of the project is to create a modern learning and living environment that meets current educational requirements. The construction project will be carried out in accordance with the guidelines of the school construction directive of the State of Rhineland-Palatinate and is based on the following guidelines: - Sustainability: Realization of an ecologically and economically exemplary building with a focus on energy efficiency, longevity and low life-cycle costs. - Accessibility: Ensuring inclusive access to all facilities and services for children, teachers and visitors with and without disabilities. - Modern pedagogy: Creation of flexible and adaptable spatial concepts that optimally support cooperative learning, differentiated teaching and digital media. - User participation: Active and structured involvement of all relevant user groups (school management, teaching staff, works council, student council, etc.) throughout the planning and construction process. The planning includes, among other things, a teaching kitchen for home economics lessons, a tea kitchen for the teaching staff, and a canteen with a fresh kitchen. All requirements of the Z-Bau and the school construction guidelines must be observed. Further information can be found in the attachments (Attachment 11_ ZHE_Central_Building_Decree_FM_241217, Attachment 12_VV_Construction_of_Schools_and_Promotion_of_School_Construction_2024 and Attachment 13_250617_Compendium_School_Construction). Compliance with the solar obligation in Rhineland-Palatinate is a binding part of the planning requirements. All new buildings must be planned in accordance with the Building Code or the State Solar Law, so that photovoltaic and/or solar thermal systems can be installed, provided that this is technically and economically feasible. A web-based project communication management system (PKMS) will be used for the project process, which will be provided by the client and ensure the secure exchange of project-related data and documents.
