The main idea of my thesis work is to deal with the problem of an adaptive reuse of an existing building, which has been designed many years ago and now lost its function. And the way I am approaching this - is through the idea of infection.  What if an existing building becomes infected by new purposes and qualities, and if so then how this move could be performed and realized? Unlike the majority of the adaptive reuse projects, mine has at its core the idea of introducing new feathers and elements in the way that it’s natural and a bit illusive, without contrasting the newly added to already existed. My goal is not to reveal this materiality difference. What I’m presenting today is a completely new envelope but from the inside you still can see this repetition of circular forms and understand that these are the same silos, which at some point were deformed in order to perform a different functions.

Today  Real  estate  companies  face  the  challenge  where  extensive  renovations  on  existing housing built before 1980 must be performed. Conditions have changed and the housing need performance-­‐enhancing measures that meet today's quality. With a current renovation rate,  it  would  take  30  years  to  meet  the  renovation  needs.  The  renovation  rate  must therefore rise dramatically, which requires the real estate companies to act consistently in accordance with commercial principles and in an economically, socially and environmentally responsible way. The  paper  discusses  renovation  strategies  in  four  municipal  housing  companies  in  the Stockholm  suburbs.  The  report  includes  surveys  of  four  ongoing  renovation  projects; Fastighets AB Förvaltaren in Sundbyberg project Hundloken 3, Stiftelsen Signalisten in Solna project Ritorp, Sollentunahem in Sollentuna project Svalgången och Väsbyhem in Upplands Väsby project Dragonvägen. The main purpose of this study was to analyze the practices of redevelopment projects. What opportunities and obstacles arise and how do the housing companies choose to respond to the current societal requirements. How do you work with redevelopment projects and how do you finance these.  The purpose of this paper is not to provide a clear and definite conclusion; the basis of the thesis has therefor been case studies. As the needs and conditions vary depending on the renovation project; there are no standard solutions, but there are important issues to be highlighted. It can be noted that the hard part of a renovation project is to get a flow without any barriers, where both the tenant's needs and wishes are taken into account and at  the same time it has to be economically and socially reasonable for the companies to implement the great need of renovation. The study indicates to some important questions to  have  in  consideration  when  renovating;  a  social  responsibility  to  not  stop  the  ever growing housing queue and a financial responsibility to ensure that the tenant is possible to take on the new rent increase that comes with refurbishment and also reasoning about the grounds  on  which  one  should  get  the  right  to  appeal  renovations.  The  results  generated  in this report should be seen as a basis for further discussion on the issue. / Fastighetsbolag  står  idag  inför  utmaningen  där  omfattande  renoveringar  på  befintliga fastigheter byggda innan  1980-­‐talet  måste realiseras. Förutsättningarna har ändrats  och fastigheterna  behöver  prestandahöjande  åtgärder som  möter  dagens  kvalitet.    Med  en nuvarande   renoveringstakt   skulle   det   ta   30   år   att   tillgodose   renoveringsbehovet. Upprustningstakten måste således öka radikalt, vilket ställer krav på fastighetsbolagen att agera  konsekvent  enligt  affärsmässiga  principer  och  på  ett  ekonomiskt,  socialt  och miljömässigt försvarbart sätt. Den  här  uppsatsen  behandlar  renoveringsstrategier  på  fyra  kommunala  allmännyttiga fastighetsbolag i Stockholmsförorter. Rapporten innefattar undersökningar av fyra pågående renoveringsprojekt; Fastighets AB Förvaltaren i Sundbyberg projekt Hundloken 3, Stiftelsen Signalisten  i  Solna  projekt  Ritorp,  Sollentunahem  i  Sollentuna  projekt  Svalgången  och Väsbyhem i Upplands Väsby projekt Dragonvägen.   Huvudsyftet med studien har varit att analysera tillvägagångssätt vid ombyggnadsprojekt. Vilka förutsättningar och hinder uppstår och  hur  väljer  man  att  bemöta  de  aktuella  samhällskraven.  Hur  arbetar  man  kring ombyggnadsprojekt och hur finansieras dessa.  Avsikten med uppsatsen är inte att lämna någon tydlig och klar slutsats, utgångspunkten i uppsatsen har därför varit fallstudier. Då behov och förutsättningar varierar beroende av renoveringsprojekt finns inga standardlösningar, men däremot finns det viktiga frågor att lyfta fram. Det man kan konstatera är att det svåra i ett renoveringsprojekt, är att få ett flöde utan  hinder där såväl hyresgästens behov och önskemål beaktas samtidigt som det för företagen ska vara företagsekonomiskt och samhällsekonomiskt försvarbart att genomföra det stora behovet av upprustningar. Studien indikerar för en del viktiga punkter att tänka på; socialt ansvar att inte stoppa upp den ständigt växande bostadskön och ett ekonomiskt ansvar att se till att det för hyresgästen är möjligt att ta sig an ny hyreshöjning som kommer med renovering samt resonemang kring på vilka grunder man ska få rätten att överklaga renoveringar. Det resultat som uppkommer i rapporten bör ses som underlag för vidare diskussion                                                               kring                                                               frågan.

The subject of the diploma thesis is the elaboration of documentation for the issuance of a joint decision (DÚSP) for the project Modernization of Brněnská Street in Miroslav. The reason for the modernization is the emergency condition of the existing road and its unsatisfactory technical solution. The communication of functional group B (collection) is located in the urban area of the city. As part of the modernization of Brněnská Street, modifications of intersections, exits, sidewalks and parking spaces are also addressed.

The impressive ruin of the church certainly has its charm, and may be in the form of tourist attraction, but I think that nowadays it is a shame to have such a valuable relic with potentially attractive surroundings only on Sunday tours. In my own proposal I have tried to combine historic footprints of preserved vaults and slope of the roof with modern and extensively (maybe overall) prefabricated structures and roofing membrane.

The diploma thesis deals with the design of a sports center building in the area of the Start stadium in Kiev, using the maximum development area that allows the plots, with regard to distances and protection zones. The territory of the stadium complex is owned by the city of Kiev. In recent years, several projects for the modernization of the sports center have been proposed to the city, but the city has only carried out a partial reconstruction, which concerned only the replacement of the stadium's asphalt paving. The stadium's grandstands have been in need of repair for a long time. The condition of the turf of the football field does not allow football sports events. The park zone does not meet the requirements for the rest of modern man. The stadium complex is located in a densely populated and developing part of the city, with a well-developed transport infrastructure. The location on the mentioned plot of the building of a modern sports complex corresponds to the interests and needs of the inhabitants of the city district and the city.

The right to housing is inscribed in the constitutions of many states. However, the policy of its implementation varies significantly from country to country, and far from always works successfully. Many major cities around the world are now experiencing a crisis of affordable housing. The diploma thesis carries the concept of renovation of old residential architecture, its transformation, rebirth and adaptation to current housing trends. Considering all the negative and positive aspects (urban planning, architectural, structural and economic) of existing buildings and the environment in which they are located.

The pace of development in modern society since the Industrial Revolution has beenunprecedented and it keeps proceeding in a more aggressive and accelerated phase. However, thisdevelopment is a highly energy demanded action which is resulting an increased exploitation ofnatural resources, and subsequently, an expanded pressure on our environment, which sometimesconflicts between proprietors. On the other hand, it also creates great opportunities fortechnological developments as well as new research fields. As one of the biggest energy consumers,it is a crucial task that building and real estate sector follow this development trend by inventingand practicing new methods and technologies in order to limit energy usage and increase energyefficiency for a contribution to sustainable development in the society.When considering improvement of energy efficiency of the buildings from the million homeprogramme, it is worth to carry out energy analysis before renovation works begins in order toobtain a holistic overview of the energy issues those buildings are struggling with. For dwellingsfrom almost 50 years ago, one of the biggest issues is the large energy usage for heating due to theheat loss to the ambience through the building’s envelope. More precisely, the heat losses throughroof, walls, windows, doors, ventilations and infiltrations. This thesis will focus on technologicalsolutions that can control the heat losses caused by convection and conduction through the externalwalls, windows and doors, which approximately stands for nearly 55% of the total heat loss for ahouse from the million home programme. Furthermore, with help of passive heating and coolingstrategies, improvement of both energy performance and indoor thermal comfort on the studiedlamellar house from the million home programme will be achieved.According to the simulation results, the installation of double glass façade on the outside of theexternal walls can reduce energy consumption, as well as keep indoor thermal comfort in desirableboundaries. In the simulated executive model, the delivered energy has been reduced to 95.3𝐾𝑊ℎ/𝑚2𝐴𝑡𝑒𝑚𝑝 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑦𝑒𝑎𝑟 from the basic model with 121.8 𝐾𝑊ℎ/𝑚2𝐴𝑡𝑒𝑚𝑝 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑦𝑒𝑎𝑟. However,In the exclusive model the delivered energy has successfully declined to 71.1 𝐾𝑊ℎ/𝑚2𝐴𝑡𝑒𝑚𝑝 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑦𝑒𝑎𝑟 , which is under the maximum permitted value (85.0 𝐾𝑊ℎ/viii𝑚2𝐴𝑡𝑒𝑚𝑝 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑦𝑒𝑎𝑟) in the Swedish building code. Both of models has maintained the occupancysatisfaction in adequate boundaries.

När det handlar om ROT-projekt (renovering, om- och tillbyggnad) är det viktigt för entreprenören att uppnå långsiktig lönsamhet. För att säkerhetsställa detta är det av stor vikt att upprätta noggranna kalkyler som håller under hela byggprojektet. I dagsläget finns små marginaler för eventuella kostnadsökningar därmed ytterst lite utrymme för misstag. Eftersom förutsättningarna vid ROT-projekt ständigt varierar beroende på typ av badrum och skadeorsak är det därför väldigt svårt att uppskatta och beräkna kostnader utifrån rådande förutsättningar.  Utifrån detta finns det ett behov hos entreprenören att förstå varför kalkylerna avviker och hur man kan undvika detta i framtida projekt. Examensarbetet innehåller både en analys av kalkylerade kostnader och dess verkliga utfall samt en analys av kalkylverktyget Meps. Då ROT-sektorn är stor och omfattande har vi valt att avgränsa oss till badrumsrenoveringar som en följd utav vattenskador. Utifrån analys av kalkyler och kalkylverktyget samt intervjuer med parter både från entreprenör och från beställarsidan har vi kommit fram till en rad slutsatser om hur företaget kan ta fram noggrannare kalkyler i framtiden. Framförallt anser vi att företaget ska föra en tätare dialog med försäkringsbolagen för att vara en del i utvecklingen av kalkylverktyget. Vi anser även att man bör avsätta resurser för att utveckla erfarenhetsåterföringen inom företaget. / It is important for the contractor to have an accurate calculation throughout the whole project, especially when it comes to ”ROT”-projects (renovation and reconstruction).There is very little room for mistakes since the budget is very tight. Since the conditions always differ from one project to another it’s very important to take this into account. Due to this there is a great need for the contractor to understand why the calculations do not add up in the end so they can avoid income losses in the future. This report contains both an analysis of the calculated costs and the outcome for five different projects and also an analysis of the program used for calculating the costs, Meps. Since the ROT-sector is big and comprehensive we have decided only to analyse bathroom renovations due to water damages. From the analysis of the calculations and Meps together with interviews with contractors and clients we have come to the following conclusions: First of all we suggest that the entrepreneur should have a closer dialogue with the insurance company to be a part of the development of Meps. We also suggest that they should devote more resources for feedback in the company.
