Facades
Engineers for Facade Engineering
Werner Sobek is a globally active engineering firm that provides comprehensive facade engineering for all types of building envelopes and special constructions and in all service phases.
Facades are subject to numerous requirements and at the same time must offer maximum visual and transparent comfort. Their planning and execution therefore require the utmost care, as the design and material always present new challenges.
Highly efficient and carefully designed façades reduce the energy consumption and emissions of buildings. At the same time, they significantly improve the visual quality of a building for the user and the observer.
As in other service areas, Werner Sobek works in principle on façades all over the world, in a wide variety of economic, cultural and climatic environments, using local standards and taking into account a wide variety of construction processes.
What remains constant is our focus on buildability and cost-effectiveness as well as quality, precision and design fidelity.
Cooperation with Architects and Specialist Planners
Integral cooperation with architects and specialist planners is also an important prerequisite for the success of our work in facade engineering.
A particular focus of Werner Sobek’s work is on double facades, cable facades, ventilated facades and complex geometries.
Blast Engineering
Werner Sobek offers comprehensive planning services with regard to explosion-protected buildings.
Building owners and users have different expectations of buildings and their facades. The protection of building users against explosions is playing an increasingly important role, which is reflected in increasing explosion protection requirements. In addition to the explosion protection criteria to be achieved, economic and architectural aspects must always be taken into account in comprehensive planning.
