Seen from outside, the listed classical complex of the Reitschule cafe and the adjacent University Riding School remains unchanged in spite of the thorough refurbishment. However, the cafe’s interior has undergone a total redesign: floors, walls, room layout and a new staircase have been designed by the architects at Palais Mai, turning the cafe into a ‘modern classic‘.

Installing domestic drain and soil pipes seem to be an easy job, no water pressures to account for or non-return and other valves to think about and regulation seems to be comprehensible to any construction worker. Just connect your pipes from point A, always go downwards and make sure you end up in the sewage and that’s it. Will it work? …It might. Will it work well? That’s a totally different ballgame. Although sticking some pipes together to drain the water seems fairly simple, a lot can go wrong when drain pipes are not installed the way they should be. Common problems with drain and soil pipes are clogs and smells and in order to avoid those providing sufficient air and keeping your waste flow under control is key.
Pinpoint: Key Facts + Figures for Sustainable Building
Bruno Keller Stephan Rutz (Birkhäuser January 2010)
-PINPOINT brings building physics clearly into focus and enables practitioners to make rational use of their expertise while keeping their focus on the essentials.
-May be used “on site” as a manual by architects, civil engineers, and construction planners.
-High-quality edition, handsomely designed
Today, sustainable building means planning and producing structures that offer their users a high degree of comfort while only requiring a small amount of energy to operate. This entails: a high degree of thermal comfort, a good supply of daylight, good sound insulation with respect to both external and internal sources of noise, good room acoustics, the avoidance of any problems whatsoever with condensation or mold, and such a low energy requirement that especially gentle and efficient methods can be used to meet the remaining demand.
At first glance, it might seem quite difficult to fulfill all these requirements. Taken together, the various textbooks on building physics and building automation and the large number of EN and SIA standards now in existence are more confusing than they are useful.
By contrast, this manual presents the most important information on all the key aspects of sustainable building in concise and clearly organized form; makes it easy to put it into practice with the help of graphics, tables, and step-by-step instructions; illustrates it with examples; and supplements it with practical tips.
That is not to say that PINPOINT is intended to replace a textbook or standards collection. On the contrary, it is meant to help practitioners who already have a grasp of the basics make rational use of their expertise while keeping their focus on the essentials.
