Building Constructions 4
Academic Year 2023/24
BH004 course is part of 2 study plans
B-K-C-SI (N) / S Summer Semester 3rd year
B-P-C-SI (N) / S Summer Semester 3rd year
The subject links up to the subject of Building Constructions II. The main topic of this subject deals with building envelopes, i.e. peripheral walls and roofs. During the first part of the term the study aim is concerned with the building facades of civil and industrial buildings. This theme includes the information about the thermal protection of buildings and design requirements for thermal insulation of the major facade types: single-layer homogeneous external constructions, multi-layer facades, lightweight steel-plastic facade panels. In the second part of the term the study concern is aimed at roofs - flat and saddle roof systems. Saddle roofs are presented with load-bearing structures of traditional trusses and modern truss systems. An attention is payed to roof coverings (overview of saddle roof coverings) and thermal insulation layers of roof constructions designed over heated indoor spaces. Concernig the flat roofs the design principles of single-leaf and double-leaf roofs are presented in several structural and material variations including tinsmith´s product details.
