Research institute for structural engineering

The affiliated research institute for structural engineering Wiener Neustadt is an accredited Austrian research institute (institution of standards and testing).

It is a test center for building materials of the groups concrete , precast concrete parts (ÖNORM B 3303); Hollow and solid blocks (ÖNORM B 3206); Natural stone and inorganic building materials (ÖNORM B 3126-2); Screed mortars and compounds (DIN 18150-2); Chimneys (DIN 18150-2).

It also offers numerous services (such as concrete core drilling, building physics tests and measurements (which are currently not subject to any standard), structural reports , construction site controls and advice).

History of the technical center in Wiener Neustadt

The secondary school building at the time it was founded

The technical school for mechanical engineering was founded in 1873 with only four students and two teachers attached to what was then the secondary school in Wiener Neustadt and in 1874 the secondary school moved into the newly constructed secondary school building on Babenbergerring. The first leaving exams were held in 1879.

First graduates with a mandatory final examination (school year 1880/81)

In the school year 1889/1890, 80 students attended the school. The catchment area that the school had at this time is remarkable. Of the 80 students, only 12 came from the city of Wiener Neustadt itself.

1922 was a fateful year for the school. Because of the precarious financial situation, the Federal Ministry of Commerce and Industry planned to close the school. It is thanks to the massive commitment of the mayor of Wiener Neustadt at the time, Anton Ofenböck , that the school was preserved. A promise by the community was the establishment of training workshops, the construction of which began in 1925 and which could be used for the first time in 1927.

When the school, then called the Engineering School, was finally separated from the Realschule in 1941, Ernst Kielhauser became its first director.

During the Second World War, classes continued almost undisturbed in the first years of the war. The training of technicians was too important to those in power. It was not until Wiener Neustadt was exposed to increasingly heavy bombing that the school was closed in December 1944, at a time when most of the other schools had long since been evacuated from the city.

Classes began again on September 17, 1945. Eight teachers taught a total of 129 students in four classes under the most difficult conditions. The school building had suffered badly from the bombing and the workshops and laboratories were practically unusable after the Soviet troops stole all the machines and tools.

The following decades were mainly characterized by a continuous expansion of the focus of training offered. In 1946, the Ischl program was implemented and the previously four-year department was converted into a five-year higher department for mechanical engineering . In addition, a three-year technical college for mechanical engineering was opened. In 1947 a three-year building school was opened, and in 1960 a five-year higher department for building construction was added. From 1965, the technical schools were converted to their current four-year form. With regard to the new, larger school building, which was just under construction, the educational offer was expanded in 1972 to include a higher department and a technical college for electrical engineering . The HTL for working people, specializing in mechanical engineering , also started this year in the form of an evening school. In the following year, the HTL for working people was expanded to include structural engineering and electrical engineering . The evening school for building construction had to be closed again in 1981 due to a lack of demand, but a special course in electronic data processing and applied microelectronics was offered from 1981 to 1983 .

The school experienced a major upgrade in 1984 with the establishment of an authorized research institute for building technology, specializing in building materials, specializing in mineral building materials . The establishment was preceded by intensive efforts by the municipality of Wiener Neustadt.

In the school year 1987/88 the fourth and so far last mainstay of the former mechanical engineering school started with the higher department for electronic data processing and organization . At the same time, the higher department for mechanical engineering was converted into a higher department for mechanical engineering, training branch automation technology. Most of the higher departments (except building construction) were now run in two classes, but the technical schools for mechanical engineering and building construction ended with the 1989/90 school year.

Lengthy naming

The school has been renamed several times over the years. In 1895, which was the Lower Austrian State Trade School in Higher Vocational School mechanical-technical direction renamed. The next renaming takes place in 1921 in the Federal College for Mechanical Engineering and in 1936 in the Higher Federal Trade School . In 1941 the next new name came with the State Engineering School . The school was almost given its final name in 1963 as the Higher Technical College Wiener Neustadt . The name of the higher technical federal teaching and research institute Wiener Neustadt was given to the school when the research institute was built in 1984.

Constant growth, lack of space and temporary arrangements

The development of the number of pupils from 1873 to 2010

The history of the school is marked by a steadily increasing number of students. As a result, there were always space problems. The premises of the secondary school on Babenbergerring, to which the HTL was connected after its establishment, was soon no longer sufficient, mainly due to the lack of space for the machines necessary for practical lessons. This problem had previously been resolved through practical work in factories in the area. In the years 1925 to 1927, a separate training workshop was therefore set up with the support of the municipality.

The training workshops in 1929

When a construction school was connected in 1947, the initial lack of a building yard was compensated for by the fact that the students were used to build the community hall. However, when a higher department for building construction was added in 1960, the space problem escalated. As alternative quarters, the building yard was housed in the basement of the grammar school, parts of the training workshop in the basement of the secondary school, the company laboratory in a building of the fire brigade (which had already been approved for demolition) and some classes in the building of the commercial academy. The gymnasium and sports field were rented by the Gymnastics and Sports Union.

From 1967 further temporary arrangements were added. The VÖEST pavilion (also known as steel construction) was moved into at Babenbergerring 5a and accommodated six classes. In the next year, a former herb factory was adapted as a building yard and one year later the steel structure was expanded to include a south-facing pavilion, which accommodated six more classes.

A short-term improvement brought the construction of a new school building, which was completed after five years of construction in 1974 (Dr.-Eckener-Gasse 2). The school now offered space for 27 classes with the associated special classrooms, workshops and laboratories. In 1978 an additional sports hall was opened. Shortly after the new Electronic Data Processing and Organization (EDVO) department was added in 1987 , there was not enough space again. In the school building, which was built for 27 classes, there should have been room for 39 to 44 classes in the day school. Since the provisional facility on Babenbergerring still existed, the IT department moved into the steel house as a branch until the completion of the extension in 2001 after a 2-year construction period, adding an information desk, IT laboratories and a new restaurant area to 20 more classes.

During all this time so-called hiking classes were formed again and again - in order to avoid the space problem. These classes did not have a permanent classroom, but used the rooms that were free when other classes had workshop lessons, since these lessons took place in the workshops and not in the classes. As a result, these classes moved to a different classroom each day.
