Temporary building to protect an excavation site

Protection class 2 | uninsulated. The Hanseatic city of Lübeck needed a hall for a very special purpose. Archaeological excavations were to take place in the middle of the city. The challenge: The excavation site was not allowed to get wet. HALTEC had the perfect solution!

At the site of the archaeological excavations, the ground conditions were anything but normal for a hall construction. Where the ground is usually level, the hall construction had to be customised. The solution was customised supports and trapezoidal sheet metal.

Sensible equipment

In the HALTEC BASIC-protection class 2 | uninsulated temporary building, suitable equipment options were installed for the intended purpose. The PVC tarpaulin roof cladding ensures concentrated work inside the hall. These translucent tarpaulins create daylight-like conditions in the hall. On dark days, the mobile lighting system can be switched on. The shop windows, through which interested parties can observe the excavations up close, are also a particular eye-catcher.
