Behelfsbau
Hello All
I have seen some drawings with the text "Behelfsbau" with a number attached to it
for example Bh 82-flak , most of the drawings are buildings , gunpits and lay-outs
are build in brick or wood .
My quistion is , is there also a kind of Regelbau for light fortifications a Bh serie ??
Regards Jos

Behelfsbau
Hi
It could be, but it apears to be "feldmasig" and not concrete.
Maybe a concrete floor and wood/brick on top.
I think they where made, depending on location AND weapontype.
Are there drawings?
Kind regards
Tommy

Hi stril,
Thank you for the link. There are may useful translations, but I'm not quite sure my English teacher would agree with all of them

Hello
I agree, but if its a guide for these people http://www.hka.admin.ch , im sure it can be used as a guide..
Regarding the behelfsbau im quite sure it is a temporary construction. Seen similar in some photos of flakpositions being buildt in Norway 1940.

Behelfsbau
Hi
If I understand it correctly, Behelfsbau is basicly a weapon on a bit of concrete and earthwork around or brickwork.
Such Behelfsbau's are found all over Denmark.
Just a 1m3 concrete or so, and an old gun.
The picture shows 28cm SK L/45 (Schiessgerüst).
Thar explanes the planned 40,6 cm guns in Schiessgerüst, along with S.497 or so. (Or some other gun. Forgot detailes)
Betonbettung and a gun, ready, fire!!!
BH 13-S from 1942.
The guns must be very few or very old, or thay would build a bunker for them, or what?
Happy Hollydays

Hello All
In the "Sudwall" there are some commandposts in naval batteries there are build in the form of the
Bh 23 ( Gedeckter Leitstand für schwere und mittlere ) there are 3 models depending of the seize of the range-
finder , but now it looks that in Denmark there are also Bh 23 build in the M.K.B. Aalbaek , Tversted and Hals .
Drawing's = Dirk Peeters and S.H.M. Vincennes

You are right, but I'm not sure if the FCP in those places are completely identical, but they are very similar.
Jens is a better judge of that.

Hi
Here is my drawing of the Leitstand in Tversted, Denmark.
There is a similar bunker at Sjaellands Odde, but with a cellar.
Kind regards

Re: Behelfsbau
Hi,
Don't think a Behelfsbau was simply a weapon on a bit of concrete, but indeed a Kriegsmarine regelbau series for Feldmässige bunkers. Enclosed is a drawing of Behelfsbau 83, not just a weapon and some concrete but a designplan for a complete Flakbatterie.
Some Behelfsbau bunker designs are also mentioned in the famous "Bestimmmungen über Regelbauten der Kriegsmarine" doc. So it looks like they were treated as 'real' Regelbauten. See enclosed part of this doc.
When combining the Behehelfbau regelbauten mentioned in this doc and forumitem the following list of Behelfsbauten can be made:
Bh 13 28 cm SKL/45
Bh 23 Gedeckter Leitstand für schwere und mittlere
Bh. 82 Flakbatterie für Geschütze mit Deckenschild
Bh. 83 Flak und Seezielbatterie für Geschütze mit Deckenschutzschild
Bh. 179 Stand für leichte Flak in Stahlbeton
Bh. 184 Einheitsflakleitstand
Bh. 212 Stand für mittlere Flak in Stahlbeton
Bh. 221 Geschützstand für 8,8 und 10,5 flak mit oder ohne Deckenschutzschild
Looks like there are lots of bunkerdesigns to be added to this list! Anybody got some more Behelfsbau bunker types?
@ Jos: At the start of this item you posted part of the Bh. 82 drawing of a Flakbatterie. Since Bh 83 is a trapezium shaped Flak und Seezielbatterie, looks like Bh 82 Flakbatterie is a square shaped Flakbatterie similar to Bh 83?
Best regards, Klaas

Re: Behelfsbau
Hi Klaas,
Very interesting, thanks for sharing. It is evident where the idea from the Flak batteries in Hanstholm came from.
Is the Bh unique for the KM or did the other services had a similar number system?
