Energy Optimised Timber Buildings

Garant předmětu:

Jan Růžička

Lecturer:

Jan Růžička

Tutor:

Jan Růžička

Supervisor:

Department of Architectural Engineering

Synopsis:

The aim is to present a complex overview on energy efficient timber structures. Basic theoretical and design principals are presented. The lectures are focused on following technologies of timber structures: (i) heavy timber skeleton systems, (ii) light timber structures based on 2x4. (iii) CLT, (iv) log house. All technologies of timber structures are presented in structural and building physics context of low energy and passive buildings.

Requirements:

No requirements.

Syllabus of lectures:

1. Structural systems of timber structures 1

2. Structural systems of timber structures 2

3. Structural details of timber structures. Designing of timber structures. Multi storey timber structures. (up to 4.floors)

4. Structural analysis of timber structures. Spatial rigidity of timber structures.

5. Fire resistance of timber structures
