The Efficiency of Plastic Skylight Panels as Smoke Vents in the Event of FireGaskin, Jeremy Mervyn January 2010 (has links)
Concerns have been raised over the use of plastic skylights as smoke vents in large single story buildings. The plastic skylights provide natural light to the building. There has been an assumption that these plastic panels will melt and provide smoke and heat venting during a fire.
The plastics commonly used in New Zealand, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polycarbonate, acrylic and glass fibre-reinforced polyester (GRP) have been tested in small scale
experiments to further the understanding of the behaviour of the materials at elevated temperatures. The behaviour of particular interest is the effectiveness of the skylight as a vent for hot buoyant gases.
Small scale experiments have been conducted to find the mass flow rate of an unobstructed vent. Experiments have then been carried out on samples of the four skylight materials for a range of exposure temperatures and times. The mass flow has been measured for the deformed sample and compared to the unobstructed flow.
The results of the small scale experiments have been analysed and an empirical relationship has been developed for the PVC and polycarbonate material. The acrylic behaviour does not provide enough data to include it in the empirical relationship. The GRP failed to melt and was therefore also excluded from the empirical relationship.
A model has been developed to demonstrate the use of the empirical relationship. The model compares four cases, the vents always open, the vents always closed, the vents opening at a single value and the area when calculated using the empirical relationship.

Relationships between owner/user satisfaction and the incorporation of daylighting into the retail buildingJohnson, Douglas Alan 17 November 2012 (has links)
Contained within this report are a series of case study field observations of selected retail design projects utilizing natural daylighting. Followed by the investigation and laboratory testing of three alternate roof fenestration patterns applicable to the least effective design. A description of the investigation procedure, a tabulation of all research findings and a section of concluding observations serve to round out this study.
All of this done in an effort to prove that there exists a positive relationship between the effective incorporation of daylighting and owner/user satisfaction with the retail building type. / Master of Architecture

Dobudování VUT - Fakulta výtvarných umění / Completion of the BUT - Faculty of Fine ArtsJelínková, Barbora January 2014 (has links)
The theme of the thesis is a study of the project of the Faculty of Fine Arts in Brno. Preparatory work has dealt whole complex, including faculty of Forensic Engineering and common areas for both faculty. Thesis follows up only study of FFA and common facilities. There are public garages in three underground levels as a compensation for the abolition of the existing parking on the property. Urban and mass solution creates a complex of buildings with a city-forming character and allows going throw the area. There are applying principles of double hanging facade on the building, which allows original artistic design of buildings.

Akademické náměstí - Fakulta výtvarných umění / Academic Square - Faculty of Fine ArtsSmejkal, Jan January 2015 (has links)
The theme of the thesis is a study of the project of the Faculty of Fine Arts in Brno. The site lies on boundary of two city parts, Brno – Střed and Brno – Žabovřesky and it is surrounded by streets Veveří, Šumavská and Bulínova.The project ties together with architectural study from subject TG02, which concerns the Faculty of Forensic Engineering. The final result of both parts is the project of both schools with common facilities. The part of the project is an underground garage where is a space for public parking which is demanded by city hall. The main idea was to create building with respect to surroundings and define itself to the street lines and create the small square inside the block of the buildings. The results are two six-floor buildings connected by two-floor object with atrium.

Administrativní budova / Office BuildingMarek, Václav Unknown Date (has links)
The thesis describes design of an L-shaped two-storey office building in Chotěboř, which can work with saving energy and be careful to nature. Using renewable materials and new technical equipments. At the end of the design, there should be a building that will be architecturally interesting, energy-efficient and use renewable resources. It is a two-storey building, which is designed for office working and one part of building can be used for teaching science. Main roof on administration part has saddle shape, second roof on part which science centre has flat roof. Both roofs are intensive green roof overgrown with plants. For day illumination, there are design French windows with openings parts. Most of the first floor and the whole second floor belongs to offices and auxiliary staff rooms, toilets, etc. First floor also includes a small training centre with one classroom and necessary facilities (toilet, staff room, etc.). The load-bearing structures (foundations, walls, columns, floor and roof slabs, etc.) are designed from cast-in-place reinforced concrete. Load bearing vertical elements are walls, columns, and posts. Part of the first floor exceeding the layout of the second floor is covered with a flat green roof. Second floor is covered with a saddle green roof. All drawings and 3D rendering were done using ArchiCAD software.

Zdravotnické středisko Hlinsko / Medical center HlinskoPilný, Ondřej January 2018 (has links)
This diploma thesis deals with the design and elaboration process of a project documentation of medical center in city Hlinsko. New building is situated in the northern part of the city in the area determined for constructions of public infrastructure. It´s a four-floor object with partial basement and slant mansard and flat vegetative roof.Object is based on foundation strips and footings made from reinforced concrete.The bearing and internal walls are designed from KALKSANDSTEIN lime sand blocks.The beams and collums are used in the placed designed with open disposition.The ceiling in 1.PP is designed as reinforced concrete for securing fire safety.The rest od ceiling constructions is designed from prestressed concrete panels SPIROLL,with exception in 4.NP,where the ceiling constructions are made from solid roof system YTONG KOMFORT,which is layed on frame system made of steel and reinforced concrete.The peripheral walls of 1.PP are made from lost formwork, which is insulated with extruded polystyrene.The walls in floors above ground are insulated with combination of external thermal insulation system (ETICS) and ventilated facade with CEMBRIT SOLID and PATINA facade cladding panels. The building is functionally divided into several part.Cafe, pharmacy, ambulance and medical center, each with it´s own entrance.Pharmacy is equipped with shop, medicine mixer and storage.Ambulance is equipped with garage slots, background for employees, room of crisis preparedness and operating center.Medical centrum is equipped with emergency, RTG, operating theater, rehabilitations and other types of examination rooms.Each examination room is equipped with waiting room.For more comfort the center has a background for employees.The whole object is designed with forced air exchange. Designed object is barrier-free.In front of the building is situated parking slots for cars, motorbikes and ambulances.Total number of slots is 74 places, which 5 is designed for disabled people.
