SFB Bauingenieure

What SFB Bauingenieure does

SFB Bauingenieure (legal name: Saradshow Fischedick Berlin Bauingenieure GmbH) is a Berlin-based structural engineering consultancy founded in 2009 by two Diplomingenieure, Peter Saradshow and Björn Fischedick, who serve as the firm's managing shareholders. The firm delivers structural engineering (Tragwerksplanung) across all performance phases (Leistungsphasen 1-6, 8) for new construction, renovation, and heritage-restoration projects, supported by Building Information Modeling (BIM), timber-concrete composite structural systems (Holz-Beton-Verbund), and timber-hybrid structural methods (Holzhybridtragwerk). Its service portfolio also includes expert witness reports (Gutachten), concrete maintenance planning, building physics calculations, architectural competition support, and specialist construction supervision (Fachbauleitung).

The firm serves a client base spanning real estate developers (GESOBAU, degewo, JUWI3 Immobilien, Brant Esada Group, Stadt und Land Wohnbauten, BootHub Potsdam), municipal governments (Stadt Reutlingen, Stadt Frankfurt Oder, Bezirksamt Steglitz-Zehlendorf), cultural and non-profit foundations (Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung, Stiftung für Kunst und Kultur), and specialized operators (Zoo Berlin, Berliner Wasserbetriebe). Notable portfolio projects include the founding Neue Stadthalle Reutlingen (with Max Dudler), the Telegraph renovation (awarded KlimaSchutzPartnerin des Jahres 2022), the Panda Garden at Zoo Berlin, the Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung headquarters, and the FUHUB Berlin timber-hybrid office and laboratory building.

The firm operates as a privately held GmbH with 18 team members — project engineers, project managers, CAD specialists, and office management — and is headquartered at Mehringdamm 57 in Berlin-Kreuzberg. The two managing shareholders are credentialed Beratende Ingenieure and members of Baukammer Berlin, the statutory engineering chamber. Revenue is generated entirely through project-based professional services engagements (HOAI fee structures typical for German engineering) rather than recurring or productized offerings; no public pricing, revenue, or financial details are disclosed, and the firm has no external investors, parent company, or subsidiaries. Geographic reach is concentrated in Berlin with project extensions to Potsdam, Reutlingen, Frankfurt (Oder), and one international engagement in Shanghai.

Direct peers

• Pirmin Jung Ingenieure: German engineering consultancy specialized in timber engineering, hybrid timber-concrete systems, and sustainable building structures. Closely aligns with SFB's Holz-Beton-Verbund and Holzhybridtragwerk differentiation.
• Knippers Helbig Advanced Engineering: Stuttgart/Munich-based structural engineering firm specializing in complex geometry, timber and hybrid structures, and high-profile architectural projects. Closely mirrors SFB's positioning around architect-driven, geometry- and sustainability-challenging Tragwerksplanung.
• SSF Ingenieure: Berlin-headquartered structural engineering consultancy (SSF Ingenieure GmbH) serving real estate developers, architects, and public clients across building and infrastructure projects — directly comparable in scale, location, and service portfolio to SFB.
• Ingenieurgruppe Bauen: German mid-sized structural engineering firm serving architects and developers on residential, commercial, and renovation projects. Comparable in scale, service mix (Tragwerksplanung, Bestand, BIM), and target customers to SFB.
• Schlaich Bergermann Partner (sbp): Stuttgart-headquartered engineering consultancy with offices including Berlin, doing structural design of bridges, towers, and complex buildings. Overlaps with SFB on architecturally led structural design, heritage/retrofit, and timber and lightweight systems in the German market.
• Werner Sobek: Stuttgart-based founder-led engineering practice renowned for sustainable, resource-efficient building structures and BIM. Very similar DNA to SFB: founder-led, sustainability-credentialed, specialist consultancy serving architects on challenging projects.
• Bollinger + Grohmann: Frankfurt-based structural engineering consultancy of comparable size, founded as a specialist Ingenieurbüro with deep expertise in BIM, complex geometry, sustainability, and timber/steel/concrete hybrid structures serving architects and developers across Germany and Europe — directly overlaps with SFB's Tragwerksplanung, timber-hybrid, and heritage competencies.

Broad incumbents

• Arup: Global engineering consultancy with a major structural engineering practice in Germany and across Europe. Competes with SFB on architecturally ambitious projects but operates across many disciplines (MEP, acoustics, advisory) and at much larger scale.
• Buro Happold: Global multidisciplinary engineering consultancy with structural engineering at its core. Overlaps with SFB on architecturally led, sustainability-focused building projects across EMEA but offers a much broader service portfolio.
• Thornton Tomasetti: Global engineering consultancy with strong structural design, BIM/digital twin, and applied research practices. Comparable to SFB on architecturally complex and sustainability-driven structural work but operates at significantly larger scale worldwide.
