not obligatory for the redevelopment of a block, but gives a reference to improve the
climatic situation. If the suggested building structure is absolutely the optimum
has to be checked from case to case under consideration of the ambient conditions.
But setting up green roofs on new buildings can only be prevented for a comprehensible
reason. Green roofs on new buildings are a standard in Stuttgart.
Beside the optimised building structure also suggestions for the design of public
spaces are offered (Figs. 10.14 and 10.15 ). The design of public spaces to reduce the
thermal stress is relatively easy realisable, there no ownership structure must be
respected. The measures offered for the design of public spaces mainly strive the
improvement of the sojourn quality, due the reduction of thermal stress in street
canyons, squares and parks. To reduce the thermal stress in street canyons, especially
possible tree positions inside street canyons, which are orientated from east to west
are identifi ed and implemented into the development outline plan. Also for building
facades along east to west orientated street canyons a design with cool materials
and/or a facade greening is offered. The greening of existing brownfi elds mainly
due to parks are also part of the development strategy of the district. The creation of
connections between existing green areas (Fig. 10.14 ) are an utmost concern, which
is considered within the strategy for the improvement of the climatic situation inside
the district.
Also the ventilation of the district due to local wind systems and cold air streams
is analysed (Fig. 10.16 ). To improve the ventilation of the district, reducing the
