Solution and Method
In the diploma thesis entitled Preparation of Project Documentation and Implementation of an Individual Project for Single-Family House X in the Municipality of Murska Sobota, he presented the design and construction of a single-family building from the order onwards. Parts of the diploma thesis include the design of the building, placement of the building on the purchased plot according to the requirements of consent authorities and coordination of the design with the investor and consent authorities. As well as the design, construction and final phases of landscaping with handover of the building for use.
The investor had a clearly defined goal in the construction of this building. To build an optimal single-family building on the selected and purchased plot, suitable for living and maintenance within the limits of their available investment funds. With the limitations of the location and geological composition of the soil, it was evident that the building could not have more than 120.00 m2 of gross floor area (twice P+M) and the utility building 40.00 m2.
There could be no basement due to the flood zone and high groundwater. Given the available financial resources for the investment, the cost of construction and equipment could only be around €1,130/m2. The designer also had problems with non-parallel construction with the street, which is conditioned by the stream.
It was also necessary to additionally design and construct access with a reinforced concrete bridge, which has a conditioned unrealistic capacity of 4.0 m3/sec instead of 0.5 m3/sec. The author set himself the goals in the diploma thesis to present technological solutions and preparation of complete project documentation up to project implementation. He also fully achieved the set goals.
After coordinating all the investor's wishes, requirements of consent authorities and the previously necessary access from the street via the new reinforced concrete bridge, the design and construction proceeded within the outlined framework. The building has, as planned, an aesthetically pleasing appearance with high plastic windows and thermal insulation triple-glazed glass on the ground floor with the same high French windows (balconies) in the attic, built into a demit thermal insulation white façade, hung on a modular brick wall. The interior of the building is also the same as planned, a functional unit of the ground floor and gallery (attic).
With a windbreak between the residential and utility separate building, along with a visually pleasing image, optimal thermal protection of both external walls was achieved. The landscaped surroundings with asphalted access, car park with canopy, reinforced concrete bridge, planted, greened surroundings and tonalite crushed stone paved walkways and covered terrace on the north side complement the aesthetic appearance of the entire constructed building. Planning and implementation proceeded in the established order: The financial aspect of the project was executed within the planned budget, as presented in chapter 5.2.
At the beginning of the works, additional costs (bridge, supply of utility connections and installations) indicated that the building as a whole would be much more expensive. The investor's role was decisive in this, as he performed many smaller works himself. For example, the supply of fill material without payment for the material, due to the proximity of a larger construction site and agreement with the contractor.
From the price analysis, it is evident that the final price of €1,250.00/m2 of usable area is not high, even lower than the then normal prices of comparable buildings (approx. €1,500.00/m2). The actual execution of the building was delayed due to winter, when external landscaping works could not be carried out. Effectively, however, the construction time was reduced by 35 days, which is favourable and is mainly due to the investor's good cooperation.
The materials that were installed are mostly the same as planned in the project and are relatively high quality, adapted to the resources the investor had. The actual execution of the building is the same as designed and represents for the investor an energy-efficient permanent residential building that is earthquake-safe with low maintenance costs. Instead of modular brick, poroterm modular brick was installed in the external walls.
The thickness of thermal insulation of external walls and attic ceiling was increased by 4 cm. The use of plasterboard instead of internal plaster allows installation to be mounted directly on the wall without chiselling grooves for cables and pipes (all installations are between the plasterboard and the wall). Only drilling of walls for installation penetrations was carried out.
The building was handed over to the investor within the agreed deadline in the designed form, thus the purpose and goals of the building construction were achieved.
- the investor knew what he wanted to have and confirmed the conceptual design presented to him,
- with minor complications, location information and preliminary opinions of all consent authorities were obtained,
- after preparation of the master file, architectural projects and installation projects, consents from the same consent authorities were obtained,
- after completion of the investment documentation, a building permit was obtained,
- construction of the bridge and utility connections were carried out as a condition for building the house,
- all construction and craft works and installations were also carried out with the previously mentioned minor changes.
