Calculation of the three-dimensional structure of the votive church as part of the renovation to ensure the safety of a scaffolding, which is built above the intersection of the longitudinal and transept and rests on the existing steel structure. This consists of under-tensioned roof racks in the ixe, which connect in a steel carrier grate in the ridge.

That steel beam grate forms the basis for the structure of the church tower, which consists of 8 to 80cm deep steel straps in
T-shape, which converge conically towards each other. This structure must also be assessed in connection with the understressed ixen girders and the additional load due to the external scaffolding.
