The "berlin modern" is currently being built at the Kulturforum in Berlin between the Neue Nationalgalerie and the Philharmonie. Among other things, the new museum will house the collections of the 20th century from the Neue Nationalgalerie. The Karlsruhe State Building Authority is managing the realisation of the new museum building for the client, the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation, based on a design by Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron and Vogt Landscape Architects.
The excavation pit for the new building is secured with diaphragm walls and a medium-height, back-anchored jet grouting base and is up to 16 metres deep. GuD is involved in the project in various service areas. We prepared the subsoil expertise, carried out contaminated site investigations and handled the construction planning for the excavation pit for the contractor, Stump-Franki Spezialtiefbau GmbH. The design and approval planning as well as the local construction supervision were carried out by WTM Engineers GmbH.
The excavation pit was completed in summer 2023.
