This brochure shows by means of planning recommendations how structural/functional processes in hospitals can be hygienically optimised, appropriate materials can be used and thus new building structures designed efficiently and sustainably. Under the leadership of the Technische Universität Braunschweig’s Institute of Constructive Design, Industrial and Health Care Building (IKE), an interdisciplinary research team with experts from the Technische Universität Braunschweig’s Institute for Construction Materials, Construction and Fire Safety (IBMB) and the Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin’s Institute for Hygiene and Environmental Medicine investigated this topic in the research project “HYBAU+ – Structural Hygiene in Hospitals”.
