Fire protection is extremely important
in construction technology for large-
scale projects in Germany, especially
when it comes to the implementation
of smart, system-complex buildings. In
addition to safety requirements, factors
such as cost control and precise time
and commissioning management play a
decisive role.
Brandschutz hat in der Bautechnik auf

Stellenwert. Neben sicherheitstechnischen
Anforderungen spielen dabei Faktoren wie
Kostenkontrolle und ein präzises Zeit- und
Inbetriebnahmemanagement eine entschei-
dende Rolle.
