Smoking Shelter Köln K1 a/a 1.15 × 1.15 m – Steel Waiting Shelter

Köln K1 a/a measures 1,150 mm in width, 1,150 mm in depth and 2,510 mm in height. The covered floor area is 1.10 m².

Clear width 1,030 mm, clear depth 1,090 mm, clear height 2,360 mm – the clear height is the usable passage height under the roof structure.

For foundation planning, allow for 115 cm × 115 cm (W × D). The EAN of this model is 4250366531748 and the item number is 102000174.

Köln K1 a/a is designed for wind load zones 1 to 3. With the snow load there is a difference you should know before ordering:

• factory-welded and assembled: Sk = 1.90 kN/m²
• as a kit for self-assembly: Sk = 1.45 kN/m²

1.90 kN/m² is a high value for a shelter canopy – around two and a half times what simple kit canopies can carry. This means Köln also covers snow load zones 2 and 3 at medium altitudes. The kit version is lower at 1.45 kN/m²; in that case check the snow load zone of your municipality in accordance with DIN EN 1991-1-3.

The load-bearing structure is made of round tube with a diameter of 60 mm, fully welded and hot-dip galvanized.

Yes. A certified type-tested structural calculation is available for Köln K1 a/a. This is the key difference from simple kit canopies and the reason why the Köln series is used in tenders and by public-sector clients.

In practical terms: the proof of structural stability has already been provided and does not have to be drawn up project-specifically by a structural engineer. That saves time and cost in the approval procedure.

The type-tested structural calculation does not replace a building permit – whether your project requires approval depends on the state building code. It does, however, replace the structural verification within the procedure. The data sheet, the tender text as a bill-of-quantities item and the GAEB file (DA XML 3.1, X81) are available for download on this page.

Köln K1 a/a is anchored with dowels to a foundation provided on site. The drilling depth is at least 100 mm and must be free of reinforcement. The design is based on normal soil conditions with a permissible ground pressure of 2 kg/cm².

Three points determine whether installation goes smoothly:

• The foundation must be level; a height difference of ± 5 mm at most is permissible.
• Dowels must not be set in paved or asphalt surfaces.
• No utility lines may run in the area of the ground anchoring.

If the top edge of the finished floor is 20 cm lower because the substrate is paved, the posts are available extended by 20 cm. Alternatively, we supply a precast concrete foundation slab: it is laid at ground level on a sand or gravel bed prepared on site, has a textured surface of slip resistance class R13, a stone joint grid of 300 × 300 mm and already includes the structurally required reinforcement of up to 15 kg/m². This means the foundation work is no longer needed at all.

You receive the foundation plan with the order confirmation. A longitudinal or transverse slope is not included in the standard offer; an adjustment for slope is possible at extra cost.

Both – you decide. Both versions are the same item; you make the choice in the configurator.

• Fully assembled: completely built at the manufacturer's plant, delivered and positioned by crane truck directly at the installation site.
• Kit: a sensible choice if access is restricted or if you carry out the assembly yourself. Assembly instructions are included.

There are four options for delivery: collection from the factory, delivery with self-unloading by forklift or crane provided on site, delivery and unloading by crane truck without assembly, or delivery and unloading by crane truck including on-site assembly and ground anchoring.

Please note the difference in snow load: 1.90 kN/m² factory-assembled, 1.45 kN/m² as a kit. Before production starts you receive a CAD plan for fine-tuning – manufacturing only begins after your approval.

The delivery time is 3 to 5 weeks from approval of the CAD plan. Köln is manufactured and welded to order, which is why it takes longer than kit series such as Leipzig or Jena.

Shipping is free – within Germany as well as to Austria, Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and the Czech Republic. Even at this size there is no bulky goods or freight forwarding surcharge.

Clarify access before ordering: with the fully assembled version, a crane truck must be able to reach the installation site and set up its outriggers there. If that is not possible, delivery as a kit is the right way to go.

“a/a” is the manufacturer's code for the wall configuration – it describes how far the unit is enclosed. The first letter refers to one side, the second to the other; versions such as a/b and b/a are therefore mirror images of each other. How many wall panels this means in detail is stated in the next paragraph.

Köln K1 a/a has a 1-panel rear wall and side walls on the left and right, all made of toughened safety glass with aluminum glass holders.

You can see how the panels are arranged in detail in the product photos on this page – an access opening remains open in every version. If you need a different layout, for example a protected interior or an access door, that can be done; just ask us.

Four materials are available, all in the same frame system with aluminum glass holders:

• Toughened safety glass (ESG), clear and transparent – the standard version
• ESG with ceramic screen printing, motif of your choice – more opaque, and additionally a visual marking against bird strike
• Perforated sheet made of aluminum in the frame color – robust, well rear-ventilated, resistant to vandalism
• Timber cladding made of Douglas fir – a warmer look, suitable for parks, schools and residential surroundings

ESG is the most common choice because it keeps the unit transparent and the location visible – a safety argument at stops, schools and on company premises. In the event of wilful damage, ESG breaks into blunt granules instead of shards.

The standard color is RAL 7016 anthracite grey. Beyond that, the frame is available in any RAL or DB color; the roof soffit is finished as standard in RAL 9002 grey white so that it stays bright under the roof.

The corrosion protection is built up in three stages: hot-dip galvanized, primed and color-coated or painted with an environmentally friendly two-component paint.

This corresponds to corrosivity category C4 medium based on DIN EN ISO 12944-2 – designed for industrial atmospheres and coastal locations with moderate salt exposure. For an outdoor canopy this is considerably more than the usual standard and the reason why the manufacturer gives a 5-year warranty on the structure.

Four options can be integrated directly into the structure:

• Green roof: modular sedum elements that can be fitted into the trapezoidal profile of the roof – often a plus point for municipal projects and compensation areas
• InLight lighting with presence detector, vandal-resistant and integrated into the roof structure
• VersoVolt photovoltaic system for a self-sufficient power supply to the lighting – without excavation work and without a power connection
• Precast concrete foundation slab, which means the foundation work is no longer needed

In addition there is the cladding of your choice and, with ESG featuring ceramic screen printing, a motif of your choice. You put together what you need in the configurator on this page.

That depends on the federal state and cannot be answered in general terms – the authority here is the state building code, not the manufacturer.

The figure your building authority asks for first is the enclosed space. For Köln K1 a/a this is 3.3 m³ gross volume (external dimensions 115 cm × 115 cm × 251 cm), the roofed area is 1.10 m². Depending on the federal state, the state building codes tie the exemption from approval procedures for roofed structures without habitable rooms to the volume (frequently between 20 and 75 m³) or to the floor area. In undeveloped outlying areas the exemption usually does not apply.

A certified type-tested structural calculation is available for Köln K1 a/a. Within the procedure it replaces the project-specific proof of structural stability, but not the permit itself.

Irrespective of this, setback areas to the property boundary, the development plan and the local design statutes must be observed. Ask your municipality before ordering – we are not a building consultant and cannot replace the information given by the authority. You can get the documents for the enquiry from us as a PDF.

Köln K1 a/a roofs 1.10 m². Depending on the use, this results in:

• 1 person at 1.8 m spacing – in normal use 1 to 2 people (calculated at 0.5 to 1 m² per person)
• 1 bicycle by calculation at 70 cm wheel spacing
• 2 bins of 120 l side by side

The figures for people and bins come from the manufacturer; the number of bicycles is a calculation based on the clear width. Because the access stays open and the clear height is 2,360 mm, cargo bikes and oversized equipment are no problem either.
