Computational structural assessment of buildings in terms of energy performance
Kaplan, Václav ; TROJAN,, Karel (referee) ; Šťastník, Stanislav (advisor)
This thesis deals with the computational comparison of the energy performance of buildings of various construction materials. The work aims at assessing the building as a thermal system. The theoretical part describes the methods for calculating the energy performance of buildings. The experimental part of the work focuses on quantifying the heat consumption of specific buildings in terms of thermal stability and it is later compared with the results calculated in accordance with the applicable technical standards.

Diagnostics and proposal to eliminate thermal bridges buildings
Bravenec, David ; Janík, Zdeněk (referee) ; Kalousek, Miloš (advisor)
This thesis presents a comparison of building materials for vertical bearing structures of buildings, thermal insulation materials and mutual combination of structural materials and insulators. Furthermore, there are possibilities for solving the most common insulation thermal bridges construction. The paper evaluated the pros and cons of different combinations of building materials. Teplo and Area programs were used for the calculations.

New methods of the thermal insulation of older buildings
Žoha, Marek ; Kic, Pavel (advisor) ; Přikryl, Miroslav (referee)
This thesis deals with the problems of insulating older buildings. The goal of this work is to evaluate the conditions of interior environement of stables for breeding hens and to propose an improvement of its thermal properties. The first chapter describes findings from literature about individual methods of insulating buildings. The second chapter describes the basic methodology and the principle of used measurements of the technical properties of the stable for breeding hens. In the third chapter there are evaluations of the measurements and necessary calculations for the improvement of thermal properties of the building. The last chapter lists the economic evaluation of the proposed insulation method of the building in respect to the egg production and feed consumption.

Study of passive stabilisation of building materials temperature
Šebek, Jan ; Pavlík,, Zbyšek (referee) ; Zmeškal, Oldřich (advisor)
The topic of presented master’s thesis was study of passive stabilization of building materials temperature. The main goal of this thesis was measuring and characterization of the thermal properties of building materials, which are used to PCM technology. PCM technology is based on utilization of latent heat of phase change. At the beginning of this thesis it was needed to define physical principle of phase change, then the most usable PCM chemicals (e.g. paraffin, Glauber’s salt, hexahydrate calcium chloride) and their basic physical properties (especially thermo-physical), background research of building materials with PCM and also the methods of thermo-physical properties measurement. It was also needed to characterize measured building materials and define theirs thermal parameters; because the values of thermal parameters of measured samples were compared to these values. In the experimental part of my thesis are measurements of material thermal analysis, which are methods, where the properties of materials are studied as they change with temperature. I had used to differential scanning calorimetry, transient pulse method and other methods, which are usable for thermo-physical properties measuring and characterization. I have been much interested in properties of measured material, which were specific heat capacity, temperature diffusivity, heat conductivity and phase change temperature (the melting point of PCM). At the end of my thesis the findings of all methods were finally summarized, compared and commented.

Modern Sacral Architecture.
PODROUŽKOVÁ, Petra
The thesis deals with European sacral architecture of the twentieth and the twenty-first century. Particularly, it refers to Judaic, Roman-Catholic and Islamic buildings. The second part puts into historical context the sacral constructions of individual religions including their function, characters and typology. In the third part of this thesis the representative sample of significant modern sacral constructions is selected, always under circumstances regarding their creation, the urban description and the setting in a specific location as well as the architectural layout, the interior arrangment and a possible use of special technological procedures at their construction. The mutual comparison and the evaluation of the modern European sacral architecture development are carried out in the fourth part. This section notices the function and the usage of light and presents some extraordinary buildings from this point of view. The final fifth part tries to answer the question, how a modern temple should look like.
