Second roof skin as air-supported membrane
For the TV studio of "Günter Jauch" in the Schöneberg Gasometer, a second roof skin had to be installed as sound insulation over the existing glass dome. A roof membrane of 3500 m² in one piece.
For the installation we developed a sophisticated system of electrical and manual winches, which first lifted the roof membrane vertically, brought it above the existing dome and lowered it here again. This was followed by fastening it to the edge and applying compressed air, which created the round shape and stabilized the roof.
