The delivery and assembly of the first timber modules for the temporary college building Stadelhofen on the Empa site in Dübendorf began on Monday, 20 October 2025. The two school wings with 120 and 126 modules respectively, including roof elements, will each be built within two weeks. Thanks to the high degree of prefabrication, the interior work on site will only take a few months so that the temporary building can be handed over to the college before the 2026 summer holidays.
