– The Federal Quality Assurance Association for the repair of concrete structures determines the city with the greatest need for renovation of schools
– Hamburg and Berlin are the current leaders in the planning of renovations and new construction of school buildings
– There is currently no need for renovation in Munich, Dresden and Bonn
During the Covid19 pandemic, digitization projects were tackled in many schools in Germany. But the building fabric also requires increased attention in some cities (https://www.news4teachers.de/2022/02/stickig-schimmlig-klimaschaedlich-deutsche-umwelthilfe-fordt-sanierungsoffensive-fuer-schulgebaeude/). For this reason, the federal quality association for the repair of concrete structures (https://ots.de/WQXrjm) has examined the renovation contracts for schools in the 20 largest German cities and found out where the need for construction is greatest. To do this, the community looked at a total of 358 public tenders and analyzed whether the projects involved construction measures for new buildings or repair measures.
In Hamburg, most construction measures are planned for schools
With a total of 40 tenders, Hamburg takes first place in the number of planned or tendered construction measures. The Hanseatic city is closely followed by the capital with 35 tenders. Stuttgart comes in third with 17 planned building measures at schools. The two penultimate places are occupied by Frankfurt, Bielefeld and Dortmund with two tenders each and Nuremberg with one planned construction measure. Munich and Dresden bring up the rear without tenders for construction projects in schools.
The need for renovation is greatest in Hamburg
123 of the tenders examined relate to the repair of existing buildings. With 23 tenders, the need for renovation is greatest in Hamburg. In second place is Berlin with 21 planned repair measures. With 14 tenders, Essen has the third most refurbishments.
Dortmund, Bielefeld and Bonn, on the other hand, do not have any planned repair projects at municipal schools. There is also little to do in Frankfurt am Main and Bremen with only two planned measures each. Five cities took the third last place with three projects each: Münster, Düsseldorf, Leipzig, Bochum and Wuppertal.
Most of the new buildings are planned in Hamburg and Berlin
A total of 85 of the tenders examined relate to the construction or extension of school buildings. Most of them can be found again in Hamburg and Berlin. Hamburg is currently planning 17 measures for new buildings and Berlin 14. Stuttgart meanwhile occupies third place with ten planned projects. Bielefeld, Cologne, Bochum and Dortmund form the lower end of the ranking with two tenders each. No measures are planned in Duisburg, Leipzig, Frankfurt and Nuremberg.
“Schools in Germany are often not up to date, especially from the point of view of energy efficiency. Education and climate protection meet here like in hardly any other case. We are therefore in favor of reducing the investment backlog in schools not only in digitization, but also in to dismantle the buildings,” comments graduate engineer Marco Götze, chairman of the federal quality association for the repair of buildings.

About the investigation
The federal quality association for the repair of concrete structures analyzes tenders from the 20 largest cities in Germany and counted all tenders for construction measures at schools. The following were not recorded: scaffolding, preparation of building sites, final building cleaning, planning services or the acquisition of objects without further installations. The Federal Quality Assurance Association analyzed 358 tenders for schools and identified 208 renovation or new construction measures.
About the federal quality association repair of concrete structures
Nine state quality associations and the Federal Quality Association for Concrete Surface Repair (BFI) have joined forces to form the Federal Quality Association for the Repair of Concrete Structures. They are supported by companies that belong to the “Deutsche Bauchemie eV” association and by individual members. The aim of the community is to ensure the long-term value of the building fabric with concrete repairs and to ward off dangers from defects in the building fabric. The Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Development and the German Institute for Building Technology (DIBt) have taken this goal into account by recognizing the Federal Quality Association for the Repair of Concrete Structures and their test center. With the portal Betoninstandsetzer.de (https://ots.de/WQXrjm), the association is also pursuing the goal of attracting more people to training and further education.
