Byhaven 4 in Silkeborg to be rehoused
Residents of the Byhaven 4 housing complex in Silkeborg are to be rehoused. According to Silkeborg Kommune, the local municipality, a structural engineer may have calculated the building’s load-bearing structures incorrectly when the complex was constructed between 2021 and 2023. Subsequent investigations have shown that it is unsafe to remain in the building during strong winds, so residents must move out shortly. In October, Silkeborg Kommune received a concerned report from Dancert (the certification authority, which certifies structural engineers). Only residents of Byhaven’s tallest building, Byhaven 4, are to be rehoused; Lars Larsen Group owns the buildings and is responsible for the planning, while the municipality will ensure that it is done. It is unclear how long the residents will be rehoused for. TV MIDTVEST TV MIDTVEST
