MATERIALS Steel used during construction of the Elbphilharmonie: 18,000 t Concrete used: 63,000 cu. M 12,000 cu. m foundations, 51,000 cu. m shell, 2/3 exposed concrete (14,000 t reinforcing steel, approx. 4,000 t structural steel) 30 different types of concrete in total

Crystal facade 1,100 curved panels Weight of each glass element: 1.2 tons Height: 3m Width: 4*5m The roof of the building was reinforced and waterproofed in August The windows are marked with small gray basalt reflective dots to prevent the structure from getting warm in the sunlight while creating a bright effect that changes as you capture different reflections. Most of the glass panels were formed separately with millimetric precision at 600 ° C. In quality control tests, glass panels easily withstand winds of up to 150 km / h and torrential downpours. The defining characteristic of the Philharmonic is its glass facade weighing 1.2tn. 1,100 curved panels 4x5m wide and over 3m high made to measure and reflect the color of the sky, sun, water, and city rays, turning the concert hall into a gigantic crystal. The roof of the building was reinforced and waterproofed in August 2014. The windows are marked with small gray basalt reflective dots to prevent the structure from getting warm in the sunlight while creating a bright effect that changes as you capture different reflections. To achieve an optimum effect, the configuration of the points is calculated by computer for each glass panel based on the respective mounting positions. The curvature of each panel depends on the particular area of the building. Most of the glass panels were formed separately with millimetric precision at 600 ° C. In quality control tests, glass panels easily withstand winds of up to 150 km / h and torrential downpours. The glass surface of the Philharmonic covers 16,000 square meters, a size equivalent to two football fields.

White skin The walls of the concert hall are covered by a “white skin” composed of extremely heavy and high density gypsum fiber panels reflecting the sound that is directed and dispersed by the innumerable shell- shaped depressions, ensuring that the acoustics In the great hall is perfect. It consists of a total of 10,000 panels of gypsum fiber composed of a mixture of natural gypsum and recycled paper. The white skin was developed by the architects, in close collaboration with the acoustic Yasuhisa Toyota, experts in fire safety, and the manufacturing company Peuckert. The walls and the ceiling are united and appear as a single piece of skin of 6.500m2. The walls of the concert hall are covered by a “white skin” composed of extremely heavy and high-density gypsum fiber panels reflecting the sound that is directed and dispersed by the innumerable shell-shaped depressions, ensuring that the acoustics In the great hall is perfect. It consists of a total of 10,000 panels of gypsum fiber composed of a mixture of natural gypsum and recycled paper. The panels are made according to intricate 3D calculations and are produced exactly to the given millimetric dimensions, to obtain an acoustically optimum surface structure. They meet the highest requirements in terms of acoustic quality, weight, fire protection, and durability. The depth and shape of the surface structure differ according to the position of each panel and its corresponding acoustic requirements. The surface structure was specially programmed for the Great Hall and consists of approximately one million cells, each of which is perfectly adapted to the spatial geometry of the room. For optimum and targeted sound distribution, surface structure plays a crucial role. The panels weigh between 35 and 125 kilograms, depending on their thickness and size. The white skin was developed by the architects, in close collaboration with the acoustic Yasuhisa Toyota, experts in fire safety, and the manufacturing company Peuckert. Before the production, a thorough investigation of the possible materials was carried out, and numerical and sample studies were carried out. By virtue of the precise planning, the walls and the ceiling are united and appear as a single piece of skin of 6.500m2.

Kaispeicher A It was almost completely destroyed in WW II, the Kaiserspeicher was detonated in In 1966 the Kaispeicher A was erected on the same site, based on a design by Werner Kollmorgen. Cocoa, tea, and tobacco were stored here until the 1990s. With the rise in container transport, however, the warehouse dwindled in significance and ultimately stood empty. Level of the ground floor raised by 3 m for the new Elbphilharmonie structure Ground floor 8.50 m above sea level Pile foundations: 1,745 Retrospective reinforced-concrete pile foundations (supplementing the 1,111 existing piles beneath Kaispeicher A): 634 Depth of the in situ concrete piles: Approx. 15 m Construction work began on 2 April 2007 with the laying of the foundation stone. The Kaispeicher A was first completely gutted, with just the brick facades remaining intact. Then a further 650 reinforced concrete piles, in addition to the existing 1,111, were rammed 15 meters deep into the mud of the River Elbe, so that the building could support the 200,000 tonnes of the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg. On completion of the 26th storey, the last one in the bare brickwork, the topping-out ceremony took place in May The shell construction was completed in November The installation of the White Skin in the Grand Hall commenced in December The facade was completed in January 2014; the roof was sealed in August The Elbphilharmonie will be inaugurated on 11 January 2017, although the Plaza will already be publicly accessible from November 2016.

The Roof Structure Area: 6,200 sq. m Number of roof sections: 8
Weight: Approx. 700 t total Number of steel girders for the whole roof: Approx. 1,000 girders Each girder is unique and made from sheet steel, a 3D design Roof sequins: Safe to walk on, aluminium panels, deep- drawn perforations, polyester powder coating Quantity: Approx. 5,800 Diameter: 0.9–1.1 m Material area: 4,160–4,727 sq. m Perforations: 11–15 mm The roof of the Grand Hall is made up of a steel framework, each element measuring up to 25 meters in length and weighing up to 40 tonnes, the outer and inner shells, floors for the technical equipment, the White Skin with the reflector as well as additional loads. Altogether the roof weighs 8,000 tonnes.
