The project in five facts.
Challenge, approach and results.
The demand for housing is constantly increasing. Increasingly expensive properties, high heating costs, the state of the economy and the instability of the employment market have forced people to use their reserves. The hidden reserve of living space has thus been found in attics. He presented a ** diffusion-open and diffusion-closed attic** and made a comparison between them.
Problem
The demand for housing is constantly increasing. Increasingly expensive properties, high heating costs, the state of the economy and the instability of the employment market have forced people to use their reserves. The hidden reserve of living space has thus been found in attics. The purpose of the diploma thesis was to present the ** reconstruction of an attic with the help of experts and modern materials into a flat filled with natural daylight**. The emphasis was on architectural and structural solutions for a house without spatial limitations.
In the first – theoretical part of the thesis, he described types of roof structures and flat roofs.
Solution and Method
He presented a diffusion-open and diffusion-closed attic and made a comparison between them. He also described the importance of airtightness of the building, the implementation of an airtight envelope and its testing using the 'Blower door' test. In the second – practical part, he demonstrated the reconstruction of the roof structure and the renovation of the attic space by construction phases using a case study.
At the end, he also presented a financial plan for the works carried out on the building.
