The Bachelor’s thesis focuses on the design of a detached single-family house
located on a sloping plot in Brno-Jundrov. The thesis is divided into two parts.
The first part deals with architectural and structural design, including building
physics assessment and fire safety design. The second part focuses on
building services design, covering space heating, ventilation, detailed design
of sanitary installations and rainwater management.
The designed house consists of one underground floor and one aboveground
floor, covered by a flat green roof and adapted to sloping terrain. The
entrance is located on the above-ground floor. The underground floor is
partially embedded into the ground and forms the quiet zone of the house,
accommodating three bedrooms. The above-ground floor forms the main
social zone of the house and includes an integrated garage. The building is
founded on a a cast-in-place reinforced concrete slab. The walls and floor
of the underground floor and the floor of the above-ground floor are
designed as cast-in-place reinforced concrete structures, while the aboveground
floor is formed by cross-laminated timber panels. The external walls
are insulated using an external thermal insulation composite system made
of mineral wool. The windows are fitted with thermally insulating triple
glazing.
The building services concept features an all-electric system. Space heating
and domestic hot water are provided by an exhaust air heat pump.
Mechanical ventilation provides controlled air exchange. Technical
equipment is integrated into built-in cabinets within the corridor. Rainwater
is collected in an accumulation tank with a capacity of 4 m³ and discharged
into a stormwater sewer. The energy performance certificate of the building
was also developed, with an A rating achieved for non-renewable primary
energy.
