Project Type

Niels Steensens Vej is a residential project located in Gentofte and designed by H+ Arkitekter.

The project involves the construction of four apartment buildings, one of which will be built as student housing. The total area is approximately 7,000 m².

The student housing will consist of 52 dorm rooms, each with its own bathroom and kitchen. The building will be constructed using traditional precast concrete elements and will have six stories above ground. On the ground floor, a common room for the dormitory residents will be furnished, featuring glass facades on two sides. The property will be divided so that the general contractor serves two different clients. The family housing consists of 48 three-bedroom apartments distributed across three blocks of varying heights (2–3 stories above ground level).

The apartments’ load-bearing structures consist of prefabricated wooden pavilions mounted on a concrete base comprising a combination of precast concrete elements and in-situ cast foundations on steeply sloping terrain.

The main structure for the youth housing is classified as high consequence class and construction class 3, which requires that the project be reviewed by a certified KK3 structural engineer. The family housing units are classified as CC2 and KK2. ABC conducts its own independent inspection for KK2.

The youth housing units are constructed using traditional panel construction with prefabricated walls and hollow-core slabs. On the ground floor, loads from the walls and slabs are transferred to beams and columns to maximize natural light in the common area. Exterior walls are clad with prefabricated insulation modules, with the option to install brick facades.

The family homes are being built with access pathways consisting of walkways made of slender concrete elements, which, together with the concrete base and the basement beneath the central building, are being designed by ABC.
