Renovation of the “House of Educational Sciences” at the University of Graz on schedule

BIG is investing around €50 million in the comprehensive renovation of the listed building. Thomas Lorenz ZT GmbH has been commissioned with local site supervision and structural verification. The structural shell works – including the demanding coffin-lid constructions – have been completed. The attic storey is fully developed via all designated stairwells. Structural steelwork is now starting with the roof supporting structure; timber construction, roofer/s and façade will follow in contact. The façade renovation is progressing according to plan; from mid-August, interior fit-out will begin with the longitudinal screeds on the ground floor. Completion of the building works by June 5, 2026 remains assured.
