Buildings

Building pollutants during demolition, after accidents, or as an intolerable hazard to users or third parties are a risk. They drive up costs and prevent deadlines from being met. There is a need for remediation here. We also take an interdisciplinary approach to investigating structural requirements prior to demolition: force-fit connections with neighboring buildings, shared walls, the need to reinforce neighboring buildings by underpinning. We support you in identifying and eliminating hazards at an early stage.
