Initial Situation

The parking garage in Bitburg is located within a residential quarter and adjacent to the hospital site. The design aims to integrate the building into its urban context by dividing the mass into two distinct volumes, respecting the scale of surrounding residential and institutional buildings.

Concept

Half-level offset floors create a clearly articulated structure, connecting Adrigstraße to the building and allocating separate sections to Denkmalstraße and Annenhof. Green roofs and planted building joints introduce visible greenery on all levels. Street-level openings enhance natural ventilation, daylighting, and social control, promoting high user acceptance.

Architectural Description

Horizontal floor levels are clearly readable, while vertical divisions appear as façade elements or building sequences. Upper levels are clad in perforated trapezoidal metal panels that allow light and air to pass through. Continuous visual connections and terraces with greenery create an open spatial experience across all levels, reinforcing the architectural presence of the garage.

Construction

The structural concept is based on a hybrid steel-concrete system with a grid of approximately 5.00 × 16.00 m. Parking areas and central drive lanes are spanned without supports using optimized steel composite beams, supplemented with lightweight Hoesch Additive Decks as single-span elements. All concrete components are made from recycled concrete and waterproofed according to the site’s soil survey. The design ensures economic efficiency, sustainability, and full dismantling and recycling capability at the end of its service life.
