Abstract:

Glass Facades of the Eastmodernism - Construction and Climate-Change-Adaptation

This article shows the construction details of an industrialized standard building called "Mehrzweckgeschossbau Typ Leipzig", which was developed during the late 1960s in the former German Democratic Republic (GDR). One main challenge of the 21st century is the adaptation of the built environment to climate change. Therefore, the industrialized standard building is investigated concerning the consequences of elevated summer temperatures due to climate change. The climate data used to deal with climate change between 1950 and 2100 are presented. Despite of climate change heating demand remains the main challenge in preserving buildings of the 1960s and 1970s, although the cooling demand rises significantly. We present several strategies for the refurbishment of this industrialized standard building. If the emission of well mixed greenhouse gases meets the upper bounds of the Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) it will be very difficult to meet the actual German requirements for the protection against summer overheating.
