This bachelor’s thesis deals with the preparation of a part of the project documentation for the
construction of a detached single-family house situated on a mildly sloping site. The aim of
the thesis was to apply the knowledge acquired during the study to the design of the building
layout and structural system, including the selection of suitable building materials that comply
with current requirements for residential buildings.
The thesis respects the assignment scope as well as the applicable legislation, standards, and
technical regulations valid at the time of preparation. The output consists of a text and
drawing part of the project documentation supplemented by a digital building model in IFC
format.
The designed building is partially embedded in the terrain and is fully basemented. It has two
above-ground and one underground floor. The floor plan is rectangular, and the building is
covered by a flat roof with an attic, finished with gravel ballast. The house is intended for a
four-member family. The layout concept divides the building into a social zone on the first
floor, a private zone on the second floor, and technical and relaxation facilities in the
basement.
The structural system is masonry with a load-bearing wall system. The building is founded on
strip foundations. The vertical structures of the basement are made of monolithic reinforced
concrete, while the above-ground floors consist of ceramic masonry units. Horizontal
structures are monolithic reinforced concrete slabs. The building envelope is insulated with an
external thermal insulation composite system (ETICS) using EPS and XPS insulation. The
roof structure is designed as a flat roof with gravel ballast.
The design also includes two uncovered parking spaces located on the plot in connection with the access road.
