"Light, freshness and generosity": the slogan of the Olympic Games in Munich also applies to the interior of the structured, airy building complex with its sports and learning facilities. The excellent glazing solutions OKASOLAR 3D from Okalux Glastechnik and SILVERSTAR COMBI Neutral 70/35 with EN2plus from Glas Trösch ensure that the best use is made of the available daylight while also providing the highest possible levels of energy efficiency.
The OKASOLAR 3D insulating glass from Okalux Glastechnik used in the roof is responsible for providing pleasant, glare-free daylight in the building. The three-dimensional, highly reflective sun protection grid between the panes of glass prevents direct sunlight from entering the building, regardless of the position of the sun. It guarantees consistent illumination levels in the sports and exercise areas and the 14-metre-high indoor climbing centre. The main south-facing slats are made of highly reflective aluminium and have an excellent solar reflection coefficient.
To generate transparency and daylight via the exterior façade as well, Dietrich|Untertrifaller opted for SILVERSTAR COMBI Neutral 70/35 with EN2plus triple-glazed insulating glass from Glas Trösch. The triple-glazed units cover a total area of 2100 square metres and, because of their high-quality SILVERSTAR EN2plus thermal coating in position 5, they have significantly reduced the energy consumption of the building. The glass provides excellent light transmission of 62 percent, which ensures that the interior of the building is illuminated with a high level of natural daylight. At the same time, the SILVERSTAR COMBI Neutral 70/35 provides effective protection against the heat of the sun’s rays. The coating in position 2 reflects a large proportion of the infrared radiation, as the low solar heat gain coefficient of 33 percent demonstrates. Importantly, the excellent colour neutrality allows the glass to blend perfectly with the clear lines of the architectural design and ensures that the new building in the Olympic Park makes a harmonious overall impression.
