Fleksible moduler uten grunnarbeid

The Bâtiment Extranef located in Chavannes-près-Renens was constructed as part of the University of Lausanne's master plan to provide flexible and sustainable building solutions. The University of Lausanne-Dorigny's construction office (BUD) designed a two-storey pavilion-type building near the existing Internef and Anthropole buildings, utilizing prefabricated modules for rapid assembly without requiring earthworks.

The building spans 2,066 m2 and includes individual and shared offices as well as seminar rooms. The design adheres to a 7.20 m grid, offering adaptable space for future developments. To align with sustainable development goals, it features a steel/concrete composite structure that can be easily dismantled and reused, except for the piles.

The façade follows a regular rhythm corresponding to the modular grid, supporting windows with lifting sashes installed at the factory. All elements, including the installed glass, were prefabricated, resulting in a construction volume of 17,177 m3. The pavilion was completed between June 2005 and June 2006, highlighting modern technologies and sustainable practices in construction.
