District heating plant in Chiusa The new district heating plant of chiusa looks like a big copper wing that comes out of the terrain. The skewed roof surfaces create one dynamic volume, which seems like a shim between the viaduct and the old Gröden´s train line carriage house. From the main building’s entry you arrive directly to the visitors area, where a big glass wall gives visitors the view into the boiler house. To the west there is a wood-chips storage, to the east the main cogeneration units; one stair goes to the first floor and creates a connection to the administration and toilet facilities. The inclined roof construction is made from glue lam wood main beams in the long direction and from secondary wood beams in the opposite direction and on the top there are sandwich panels with exterior copper surface. The use of copper in the form of sandwich panels and metal expanded panels, the building’s shape, the color and the materials create one connection and integration with the natural environment and emphasizes the compact building’s form. The copper is combined very well with the wood planking in the elevation, which creates a metaphoric relation with the combustion material made of raw wood chips. Centrale Teleriscaldamento a Chiusa La nuova centrale di teleriscaldamento ha la forma di una grande ala che si erge dalla terra. Il tetto inclinato crea un volume dinamico che si insinua come un cuneo fra il viadotto e il deposito della vecchia ferrovia della Val Gardena. Nelle facciate sui lati corti, ad est e ad ovest della centrale, il tetto viene prolungato fino a terra mentre sui lati longitudinali il tetto si interrompe e la facciata è indietreggiata rispetto al bordo dello stesso. La facciata nord è costituita da una grande vetrata verso la città come una vetrina attraverso la quale è possibile vedere il cuore dell’impianto - le macchine che producono il calore. Internamente l'edificio si può dividere in tre parti: il deposito della biomassa, la zona della centrale termica con la sala controllo e i vani secondari e la zona della cogenerazione con i vani elettrici. Come materiali principali sono stati usati il legno (travi lamellari in legno per la struttura portante e lamelle di legno), panelli sandwich col lato esteriore in rame (copertura tetto e facciate est ed ovest), cemento armato (solai e pareti interni) e vetro per le facciate nord e sud. FHK - FERNHEIZWERK KLAUSEN Das neue Fernheizwerk hat die Form eines großen, aus der Erde ragenden Flügels. Das geneigte Dach bildet ein dynamisches Volumen, welches sich wie ein Keil zwischen den Viadukt und die Remise der alten Grödner Bahn schiebt. Das Gebäude fügt sich, trotz seines starken Charakters, gut in die vorgefundene Situation ein. An den beiden Schmalseiten im Osten und Westen des Gebäudes ist die Dachfläche jeweils bis auf den Boden hinuntergezogen, während hingegen an den Längsseiten die Fassade hinter die Aussenkante des hier unterbrochenen Daches zurückspringt. Die der Stadt zugewandte Nordfassade ist in einer vitrinenartigen, großzügigen Verglasung ausgeführt, durch die man das Herzstück der Anlage, die wärmeproduzierenden Maschinen, sehen kann. Im Inneren lässt sich das Gebäude in drei Bereiche unterteilen: das Hackschnitzellager, das Kesselhaus mit Kontrollraum und verschiedenen Nebenräumen sowie das Blockheizkraftwerk mit den Elektroräumen. Als Materialien wurden vorwiegend Holz (Brettschichtholzträger für die Tragstruktur und Holzleisten an den Fassaden), Sandwichpaneele mit einer Außenseite in Kupfer (Dacheindeckung und Fassaden im Westen und Osten), Stahlbeton (Decken und Innenwände) und Glas für die Fassaden im Norden und Süden verwendet.
