Abstract:

This Bachelor's thesis focuses on the design of a house for a family of six in the village of Frantoly in the Pošumaví Region. It has an underground and ground floor and an attic. The house is rectangular. The basement is partially embedded in the ground. It contains a garage, a utility room and a workshop. There is a master bedroom with a bathroom and a dressing room, a laundry room with a toilet, a pantry and a living room with a large window facing south on the ground floor. The attic contains three bedrooms and a bathroom. The house has a foundation slab. Load-bearing walls above ground are designed of aerated concrete blocks with ETICS made of grey polystyrene and walls underground are designed of concrete permanent formwork and XPS insulation. Floors are the prefabricated rib-and-filler floor. The building has a gable roof with a 35° slope and a PIR insulation above the rafters.
There is no public water and sewage network on site, so the building services are designed off-grid. Potable water supply is provided by a well, while wastewater disposal is managed by a domestic wastewater treatment plan. The project emphasizes sustainable water management through a rainwater harvesting system, utilizing an underground storage tank for garden irrigation. The excess water is managed via infiltration on the property. The primary heating source for heating and domestic hot water is a biomass boiler combined with an accumulation tank, distributing heat into the radiators. The design includes structural and technical provisions for the future installation of a mechanical ventilation system and photovoltaic panels. The building achieves energy performance class A and meets the requirements for a nearly zero-energy building.
