Technical building services: electrical engineering in residential construction – electrical planning for commercially used properties, residential complexes and private buildings
In the field of residential construction, the range of services offered by our subsidiary IBZ extends from residential complexes and urban districts to mixed-use residential and commercial buildings and private properties. Ingenieurbüro Zink (IBZ) plans both the electrical engineering of new constructions and the renovation and conversion of existing buildings – reliably, energy-efficiently and with a user-oriented approach. Whether publicly subsidised housing, cooperatively organised projects or private-sector ventures: Ingenieurbüro Zink supports clients, architects and operators with comprehensive electrical engineering expertise in plant groups 4, 5, 6 and 8 across all service phases under the HOAI (fee schedule for architects and engineers) – from the first concept through tendering to construction supervision and beyond.
The strength of IBZ: electrical planning that combines modern technology with architectural and functional requirements. Whether it’s a compact new build or a sophisticated multi-family house – our experienced team develops electrical engineering solutions that make everyday life easier, future-proof your property and ensure a long-term service life.
Technical building services for residential buildings and commercially used properties
Residential and commercial buildings combine different types of use – from living to retail through to offices. In these cases, integrated, cross-trade planning of technical building services is essential in order to reconcile the requirements of all stakeholders. IBZ relies on early planning, transparent communication with clients and architects and proven technical standards – individually adapted to each building type.
Well-designed building automation ensures efficient operation, from intelligent lighting management and heating control to access control. This allows energy-saving potential to be optimally utilised while user comfort and safety are guaranteed at all times.
The electrical infrastructure is planned with foresight – for stable communication networks, modern media technology, future-proof energy supply and intelligent building control. E-mobility concepts – such as charging infrastructure for electric vehicles in underground car parks – are also taken into account during the planning stage.
Technical building services for residential complexes and districts – networked, efficient, future-proof
Residential complexes and districts place high demands on technical building services: different user groups, centralised and decentralised building sections, barrier-free access and sustainable energy supply must be harmonised. IBZ develops a well-conceived electrical engineering concept for these complex projects – modular, scalable and tried and tested in practice.
Our services include, among others:
- User-friendly and expandable installation
- Centralised energy supply and distribution concepts
- Structured data and communication networks
- Control technology for building complexes (e.g. for heating, lighting, shading)
- Integration of e-mobility infrastructure, PV systems and battery storage
- Planning of fire alarm, security and access systems
- Protection concepts against overvoltage, lightning and fire
- Emergency and safety lighting in basement or outdoor areas
- Technical solutions for barrier-free use
- Smart home solutions with KNX control
- Planning of lift systems
By combining intelligent control with energy-efficient technology, living environments are created that offer high quality of life, low energy consumption and optimal user comfort – for investors as well as for residents.
Technical building services for publicly subsidised housing construction
Housing projects commissioned by public developers or cooperatives pose special requirements – for example with regard to energy efficiency, sustainability, life-cycle costs and technical flexibility. The central challenge lies in ensuring that construction costs remain economical while at the same time guaranteeing high standards, robust construction methods and good living comfort. Furthermore, building services technology must involve low maintenance and operating costs. IBZ is familiar with these requirements through many years of experience and develops tailored solutions for publicly subsidised residential complexes, social housing projects and communal forms of living.
In these projects, IBZ places particular emphasis on:
- Economical and low-maintenance electrical installations
- Standard-compliant design of safety lighting and escape route systems
- Preparatory infrastructure for digital meters, PV systems or heat pumps
- Barrier-free and age-appropriate concepts
Our electrical planning supports operators in achieving sustainable, economically viable and user-friendly building operation – today and in the future.
Intelligently minimising life-cycle costs
Lasting economic efficiency is created through forward-looking planning: energy-efficient systems, robust technology and well-designed control solutions reduce operating costs and maintenance effort – over the entire life-cycle. Together with you, IBZ develops electrical engineering concepts that pay off in the long term. These include, for example:
- LED lighting with motion and daylight sensors
- Photovoltaic systems for own-use electricity and tenant power models
- Intelligent control technology for optimised consumption
Our goal is planning that is not only convincing today, but also proves its worth tomorrow – for owners, operators and users alike.
Holistic planning – from the first idea through to implementation
Our range of services in the field of residential construction includes, among others:
- Electrical planning according to HOAI service phases 1-9 and supplementary services
- Energy supply concepts for residential buildings
- Design, optimisation and implementation of electrical building services
- Building automation with bus systems such as KNX for blinds, lighting and building control
- Lift systems
- Energy-efficient lighting planning for indoor and outdoor areas
- Lightning protection, earthing and surge protection concepts for maximum safety
- Security and fire alarm technology
- IT and communication technology
- Charging station infrastructure and PV integration
- Barrier-free electrical installations
Whether it’s a medical practice building or a large-scale residential project – with IBZ you have a partner at your side who plans electrical engineering with foresight and implements it reliably. As a subsidiary of DriveCon, our technical know-how is combined with practice-oriented implementation.
