RENOVIERUNGS-PROZESS

Architektur

BESCHREIBUNG

The building is a symmetrical structure with two wings, which frame the forecourt of the Lazaristenkirche. The north wing was the subject of renovation. It dates from the late "Gründerzeit" period of 1884-1918, was built in 1904 and designed by architect Cajetan Miserowsky. The renovated building is located on the north side and has a predominantly south-facing orientation of the habitable rooms. The north side to the adjacent Sophienspital is a closed firewall. The narrow side to the west faces the private garden. The implementation of this project was carried out within the framework of the R&D programme "City of Tomorrow". The innovative renovation measures as well as the accompanying research and documentation were funded by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology and the City of Vienna.
Städtebaulicher Kontext
The property is located in the 7th district of Vienna, which is heavily influenced by Gründerzeit buildings. The refurbished building is part of a larger ensemble between Kaiserstrasse 5-7 in the east and the busy Gürtelstrasse in the west. The ensemble is located completely in a protection zone and is a listed building.

Erhaltungszustand

Erhaltungszustand der Gebäudehülle
The property had significant static, fire safety and thermal deficiencies that had be addressed.
Haustechnische Anlagen vor Sanierung
The building is located in the supply area of the district heating, which was used for the heat supply already before the renovation. The heat supply in the building took place via radiators. The transformer substation and the hot water supply were to be modernized.

DENKMALWERT

ERHALTENSWERTE ELEMENTE
The architectural quality in particular the appearance of the main façades with clinker surfaces, the historic windows & dormers, the house chapel and the shape of the roof were worth preserving. An innovative package of measures for the preserved Gründerzeit house was conceived as follows: The Viennese box windows in the articulated facades covered with ceramic tiles were preserved and supplemented with passive-house-fit internal wooden windows and energetically optimized. The thermal quality of the building envelope was enhanced by an interior insulation with calcium silicate panels. A comfort cover with a central ventilation unit and heat recovery for the living and recreation rooms was integrated into the historic building fabric. The Gründerzeit roof truss was statically reinforced and thermally renovated while retaining the existing roof contour, the ornamental gable and the historic old slate cover. Light strips were integrated into the space-side roof areas, with the built-in residential units close to the passive house receiving roof terraces on the courtyard side. An external insulation was designed on the inner court facades and fire walls. Through a monitoring of the Vienna University of Technology, the demonstration project was scientifically monitored over a period of 2 years. By applying this innovative package of measures, it was demonstrated how a listed building can be adapted to a highly efficient and up-to-date standard of comfort and energy consumption.
Denkmalwert und wie er bestimmt wurde
The building and it´s court were already under monument protection by the Federal Monuments Authority Austria when the project started. After completion, the project received first place in the 29th Vienna Urban Renewal Award 2014 (Wiener Stadterneuerungspreis)

Ziel der Sanierung

Renovation + Extension
The goal was to present a sustainable system solution with the energetic refurbishment of the existing building and the highly efficient loft conversion according to the requirements of the monument protection. This solution should have a high multiplicativity for a large number of Gründerzeit buildings. The property had significant static, fire safety and thermal deficiencies that had be addressed. Futhermore the measures should increase the user comfort by adding an elevator and a small building extension. Both the investment costs of the implemented innovative measures and the running costs in the operation were to be documented in order to be able to perform life cycle cost calculations. The goal was a certification, which documents a holistic representation of the building according to defined sustainability criteria.
Gab es eine Änderung der Nutzung?
Rental appartments were added whereas social facilities and owner-occupation were reduced by half.
Gewonnen Erkenntnisse / besondere Erfahrungen
The most relevant finding from the Kaiserstraße project is that complex refurbishment projects can only be realized with a consistently ambitious planning team and an open-minded client. A continuous process of coordination between an experienced planner and the building preservation authority is necessary. Especially the complication of the strict monument protection for facade and roof landscape shows that an ambitious architect can develop innovative solutions with general applicability from the alleged impediments. One of the keys to cost-effectiveness is the expansion of floor space by 30% and the adaptation of usable space to well-rentable standard, again of particular value the newly created attic floor space. The main contribution of the Kaiserstraße project seems to be that even under the complex conditions of monument protection, high-quality renovations enable innovative, contemporary solutions.

Plastered facade with facing bricks

Exterior wall of extension

Plastered facade with facing bricks

The existing facade was made of ceramic clinker tiles. Conservative measures such as substance-saving cleaning and repair of the facing brick surfaces, supplementing the historical clinker tiles and hydrophobing were made. The ceramic statue in the wall niche of the southern ornamental gable has been restored. The circular sandstone slabs, sandstone cross ornaments and sandstone coverings on the eastern and southern ornamental gables were cleaned, repaired and color-matched. Articulated facades and profiled plaster surfaces, such as cornices, window casings, window roofs and ornamented roof gable incl. figural representations were repaired and restorated as follows: - Manual removal of various later lime-cement coating - Surface cleaning, mechanical manual exposure of various decorative elements - Stabilisation of the sanding surface, closing of cracks - Plaster additions with cement-free natural hydraulic finished products

Paint systems were used in consultation with the Federal Monuments Authority Austria according to the following procedure: - Etching the facade - Pore-filling lime mud for closing cracks and small bumps - Double silicate glass topcoat

Viennese box window

Slanted glazing in monument protection

Viennese box window

The outer wings of the box windows in listed facades were renovated and on the inside a new wooden window with special interior insulation was added. The solution sets the new inner wing completely flush with the inner wall and improves the thermal situation through internal insulation and reveal insulation. The sunshades are positioned between the wings in the lintel in existing roller blind niches. This layout represents a novel solution for old buildings.

Some parts of the window were maintained (e.g. frame)

Slanted glazing in monument protection

The sufficient exposure of the two-storey loft extension was a particular challenge because of the huge closed listed roof area to the south. In cooperation between the monuments office and the planner, an exemplary solution was developed and implemented with this project. Thus, large-scale two-storey vertical light bands are integrated into the roof landscape due to the special shape of the outer sunblinds. The sunblinds lie flush with the outside of the roof and are fixed so that the horizontal view and sufficient sun protection are in balance. The exterior cleaning of the glass surfaces takes place annually with a special cleaning device.

New wlight bands were integrated into the roof landscape

The roofing to the street was made of the original slate, the one to the courtyard-side was done with Eternit lace stencils and the dormers in zink. The roof was equiped with a high quality intermediate rafter insulation and an inside, mineral rafter insulation. The roof gaiters were insulated with highly efficient insulating material. The gallery floor is illuminated on the court side via generous glass fronts of the dormers. In order to ensure an appropriate illumination of the attic apartments, 4 vertical light bands with 4 roof windows each were installed symmetrically to the south gable-end in the roof area. The fixed sunblinds avoid the summer overheating, but allow solar heat gains to be used in the winter. On the one hand, they guarantee a view into the open and on the other hand they create a homogeneous roof surface. In order to be able to mount the lamellas flush with the roof surface, an installation detail has been developed in which the level of the roof windows is located on the inside. The lowest window of each lightband is openable and manufactured with a ladder, so that the second escape and rescue route is given from each unit in the attic.

The roof surfaces were covered with historic slate cover and all zinc plating was redone.

HEIZUNG

The existing converter station which connects the district heating system with the heating system of the building was renewed. The attic floor is heated by a floor heating. On the third floor a floor heating could be realized on a footfall sound insulation due to a completely new floor structure with screed. On the second floor, there is a mixed system: in the rooms with interior insulation, floor heating was carried out due to the limited possibility of fixing the radiator consoles to the walls. On the second floor the remaining rooms are supplied by radiators. The first floor and the ground floor are heated by radiators. On the first floor some of these radiators were partially renewed. On the ground floor, the existing heat supply was not renewed. The chapel was equipped with wall heating on three sides.

This wall heating in the chapel was installed with the aim to prevent contamination of the wall painting. Since the heat dissipation now mainly works through radiation, in contrast to former convection-induced air movements, the transport of impurities are largely reduced.

The existing basement rooms could be used for the location of the ventilation station. The external air intake takes place via the outer wall of the parish garden. Existing shafts were used for the exhaust air and the supply and exhaust air ducts . The semi-central system was chosen for comfort ventilation. The heat recovery rate of the heat exchanger (plate countercurrent exchanger) is at least 82.5%. The filtering of the outside air is done with a high quality F7 pocket filter. The individual regulation of the air volume flow for each residential unit is ensured by a V-Box.

In order to keep the renovation work in the building minimally invasive, the former coal lift shaft was used for the exhaust air duct and part of the existing toilet tower was used for the routing of the supply and exhaust air. The ventilation distribution in the floors is located in the suspended false ceilings in the easily revisable corridor and staircase area.

The hot water supply for the attic floor, as well as for the second and third floor is made via decentralized home stations. The home station is a prefabricated unit for supplying heating surfaces (floor heating or radiators) and for heating water in a 2-wire system. The station is fed from the heating flow and from the cold water network from the central installation shaft. This requires a year-round operation of the network; Decentralized heating saves a separate hot water and a circulation line as well as the resulting storage and circulation losses. In the refurbished apartments, attention was paid to the use of water-saving fittings. The ground floor and the first floor are supplied centrally from the technical room. The distribution is made from a 1,000 l water heater in the basement. The storage tank is charged with district heating via its own heat exchanger.

No measures had to be taken on count of conservation.

The regulation of underfloor heating may not be optimally adjusted, because the thermostat is mounted in an apartment in the bedroom, but where cooler temperatures are desired, so that the living room is then too cool. The bathroom is described as too warm. With the warming and ventilation of the apartments in the cooler season, there is high satisfaction. There are no disturbances and noises. The overheating of the apartments in the summer is described as unpleasant. Despite the installation of a sun blinds, a tenant built an air conditioner.
