No industry requires more energy or resources than the construction industry. This fact makes it clear that sustainable climate protection must largely be achieved through the building sector. There is currently no comprehensive concept for consistent ecological architecture either in theory or in practice. Against this backdrop, the current project is consistently dedicated to ecological building components made from renewable, recycled or recyclable raw materials. In the first step, completed, multi-storey timber buildings are being analysed. The reference buildings analysed provide information on the proportion of mineral and fossil resources and the environmental impact of the structures currently used. Based on this, the next step is to look for renewable building materials as substitutes for mineral or fossil building materials. Building materials that cannot be substituted by renewable building materials are to be optimised in terms of recyclability and reusability. The aim is to develop ecologically optimised component structures that are based on purely renewable, recycled and recyclable building materials and thus represent the lowest possible environmental impact in multi-storey timber construction. The project is intended to create the basis for a component catalogue with ecological building materials.
