Modernization and Reconstruction
Academic Year 2023/24
CH053 course is part of 1 study plan
N-P-C-SI (N) / N Winter Semester 1st year
The subject deals with the creation of the drawing documentation of reconstructed buildings. Students will learn about the development of building industry laws in Bohemia and Moravia and about building construction systems and principles at of standards and design regulations. It deals mainly about the focus of the present state of the buildings, the construction- technical and historic research, identification of failures by the external symptoms and basic methods for their removal.

Syllabus
1)Introduction to the subject, terminology, durability and life-span of buildings
2)Surveying of existing state in buildings
3)Fundamental surveys in buildings – technical survey, historical and architectural survey (preliminary consideration of building defects and deficiencies – visual exploration), Development of building industry law in Bohemia and Moravia since the second half of the 19th century
4)Design regulations for the project documentation of building reconstruction and renovation
5)Cracks in building constructions – characteristics of cracks (active and passive crack defects, tension, compression or shear cracks , etc.) causes of cracks in building constructions and ways their rehabilitation
6)Defects of vertical structures (columns, load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls, partitions) and their rehabilitations
7)Openings in vertical structures, supports and bracing for rehabilitation processes
8)Defects of horizontal constructions - the first part (lintels, girders, floor structures, wooden beam floor structures) and ways of their rehabilitation
9)Defects of horizontal constructions - the second part (vaults, floor constructions) – types, defects, rehabilitation
10)Staircases – main defects and failures, repair possibilities
11)Foundation structures – failures, ways of rehabilitation, enlargement of width and depth of existing foundations
12)Defects and failures of saddle roofs – causes, rehabilitation, attic extensions and superstructures
