Trefftz-Bau, University building in Dresden, Germany
The Trefftz-Bau is a university building located at Zellescher Weg 16 on the campus of Technische Universität Dresden, containing multiple lecture halls and teaching spaces. An extension from 2006 houses central computer facilities and computing centers that serve the entire university.
The building was completed in 1952 and named after mathematician Erich Trefftz. The computer facilities were added in 2006 to support the growing demands of digital research and teaching.
The building carries the name of Professor Erich Trefftz and reflects the importance of the technical university to Dresden's academic landscape. It shapes the campus appearance and shows how the institution preserves its past through architecture.
Most lectures take place during the semester, and access is normally limited to students and staff. It helps to familiarize yourself with the campus layout to locate the building among the other university structures.
The computer facility generates waste heat in winter that is channeled to warm the fresh air supply for nearby lecture halls. This system demonstrates a practical approach to energy efficiency within the campus infrastructure.
