Synopsis:

Residential houses made of precast conrete panels, of which approx. 82 thousand were built in the period 1960-1995 do not meet the required extent of the current dynamically developing society and in many cases require the implementation of regeneration and modernization interventions enabling their full use. The course is focused on the current issues of renewal, reconstruction and modernization of precast houses, modernization of apartments in precast houses, on the issue of freeing parterres of precast houses for services, shops, offices, fitness centers, etc. Renovation, modernization, or regenerations require the removal of functionally inadequate completion structures, technical equipment, installations and, in some cases, even demanding interventions in supporting structures. As part of the construction of communication networks, modernization of urban development, etc., it is necessary in some cases to carry out partial or complete demolition of a precast panel building. As part of the regeneration of precast panel housing estates, an extension is also carried out, or completion of precast houses. The implementation of the mentioned plans requires a survey and diagnostics of supporting and peripheral structures, joints of parts and an evaluation of the structural-technical condition and an assessment of the residual life of precast panel structures and buildings.

Requirements:

Building structures I (124PSI1)

Syllabus of lectures:

The development of precast panel structures in the Czech Republic and in Europe from the second half of the last century to the present.

Defects and malfunctions of multi-storey precast panel buildings.

Renewal, reconstruction and regeneration of precast housing estates and prefab buildings in the Czech Republic and Europe.

Selected issues of structural and static solutions of precast panel buildings.

Research, diagnostics and structural-technical evaluation of structures and the remaining service life of precast panel buildings.

Regeneration and modification of panel buildings - insulation of precast panel buildings, establishment of green roofs, establishment of loggias and balconies, release of parterres, superstructures and extensions of precast panel buildings

Modernization of apartments in precast panel houses - improvement of the well-being of the internal environment (health, acoustic and thermal technical), replacement of finishing structures, modernization of sanitary facilities, technical equipment and distribution systems

Demolition of precast panel buildings, partial and complete

Recycling and utilization of demolition materials

Syllabus of tutorials:

organization of exercises

assignment of seminar papers

examples and technologies of dismantling individual types of objects

examples of the use of demountable prefabricated constructions

presentation and submission of seminar papers

Study Objective:

The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the current issue of renovation, reconstruction and modernization of precast panel houses, modernization of flats in precast houses, issues of freeing parterres of precast houses for services, shops, offices, fitness centers, etc. Renovation, modernization, or regenerations require the removal of functionally inadequate completion structures, technical equipment, installations and, in some cases, even demanding interventions in supporting structures. As part of the construction of communication networks, modernization of urban development, etc., it is necessary in some cases to carry out partial or complete demolition of a precast panel building. As part of the regeneration of precast panel housing estates, an extension is also carried out, or completion of precast houses. The implementation of the mentioned plans requires a survey and diagnostics of supporting and peripheral structures, joints of parts and an evaluation of the structural-technical condition and an assessment of the residual life of precast panel structures and buildings.
