Fire resistance of building structures is important not only in terms of prevention of hazards to human health, but also from the economic point of view. The choice of method of fire protection of steel structures depends on the responsible choice of finish or cladding material and suitable technology implementation. Although the assessment of fire risk is a priority, when selecting the decisive criteria we must not also forget the cost of fire protection measures. This article aims at economic comparison of the two fire protection measures for the steel column of rolled profiles.

“…The existing residential houses are improved by thermal insulation of the envelope and the replacement of the opening infillings in the facade to improve the thermal technical parameters of the indoor environment [1,2,3]. In some cases the implementation of glazing (but always safety glass [4]) of the loggia space in individual flats is done with the idea of improving the indoor climate.…”

Current requirements for energy savings lead to improve heat insulation properties of claddings. That is the reason why thermal insulation properties are improved in existing buildings, such as additional insulation of the building envelope and replacing filling holes in the facade. The reason for the implementation of the glazing of these areas is the idea of improving the indoor climate of the living space. It is assumed that condensation of water vapor and occurrence of moulds on inner surface of the structures can happened in certain conditions of indoor air.

“…In the case of today revitalizations and assemblies of thermal insulations of these existing buildings the inappropriate performance of the detail [1,2] in the place of the groove can become a source of the future defects in the peripheral structure. This includes those situations when the vertical spout pipe remains, after its exchange, in its original position so that it fills the grove and the thermal insulation is only pulled over the groove.…”

Mold Issue in Details within the External Walled Structure

Article deals with the issue of mold in masonry structures. Attention was focused on the critical detail at expansion joint. Variants of solved detail are focused on the process of surface temperatures in the structure. This detail needs to be solved because of revitalization of the structure. Isotherms of the critical inner surface temperature and dew point temperature were used for the evaluation of the variants.
