NetZero – carbon neutral living in Brno
Thunová, Nicola Vanesa ; Gebauer, Pavel (referee) ; Sedláček, Michal (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the design of an apartment block conceptually designed as a carbon-neutral building in Brno. The selected object is a continuation of the pre-diploma project PURE CITY, in which a set of buildings was designed as part of the urban study, which dealt with the issue of NET ZERO within the urban and social scale. The demarcated area is located in the cadastral area of Starý Lískovec on Jihlavská street near the new Západní Brána (West Gate) stop and not far from the campus of the Bohunice Faculty Hospital. The NET ZERO concept deals with sustainability and the effort to achieve a neutral balance of carbon footprints throughout the building's life cycle. The inner block is designed as a set of 8 housing sectors. The inner space of the park-like courtyard is used for staying and relaxing and is a completely private space for the residents of the block. The building in the corner parts reaches up to 7 above-ground floors, thus responding to the orientation to the cardinal points. In terms of shape, it prescribes a rational rectangular shape from the north side, but on the south side, the facade is slanted, as it was necessary to give way to the ongoing existing communication. The apartments are designed in several categories and mainly aim at the density of the population. The apartments are complemented by spacious balconies, and the apartments on the ground floor have terraces located at the street line, which demarcate public and private space with a double barrier and height difference. The height difference thus also responds to the descending terrain, which reaches a height difference of up to 3.5 m on the southern side. On the ground floors in direct contact with the street line, active parterres with smaller shops or services are designed, or WORK and LIVE housing units, which combine work environments, such as studios, with living space. These spaces are designed over 2 above-ground floors in the style of a loft apartment. The roof plane is designed as flat roofs in several height levels, on which are located private terraces for residential apartments, located on the highest floors, as well as community gardens for residents of the inner block, and a large part is occupied by an extensive green roof supplemented by photovoltaic panels for pumping solar energy.
Recycled aggregates to asphalt mixtures of the flexible pavements
Kropáč, Pavel ; Zdřálek, Petr (referee) ; Stehlík, Dušan (advisor)
This thesis deals with the theoretical part of the creation, distribution and recycling of construction and demolition waste. Subsequently covers made from these recycled construction and demolition waste and its potential application in structural layers of the pavement. In the practical part of the thesis deals with monitoring the overall properties of nine asphalt mixtures with different proportion of recycled concrete aggregate and asphalt binder, which are designed and intended for bed asphalt pavement. The recycled concrete aggregate and asphalt are performed various laboratory tests, the results are subjected to a comparison with the relevant standards and TP 210. The conclusion is made price comparisons of asphalt mixtures.
Quality of the recycled aggregates to the roads
Sokolová, Veronika ; Pecha, Karel (referee) ; Stehlík, Dušan (advisor)
Theoretical part of the thesis describes the production, properties and characteristics of recycled aggregates and the resulting assessment of the suitability of its use in the construction of roads. The practical part is focused on implementing the basic tests of aggregates according to applicable standards, such as bulk density, water absorption and resistance to crushing of aggregates. Tests are performed on fractions of the three types of recycled aggregate and then compared with the same results of tests on natural aggregates.
SCC with secondary raw materials
Ťažká, Lucia ; Ťažký, Tomáš (referee) ; Hela, Rudolf (advisor)
Bachelor thesis is focused on the possibility of using secondary raw materials and their application to the production of SCC. Large part deals with impurities of type I and its application results mainly from abroad. Furthermore, this work examines the impact of different types of impurities on the resulting concrete durability in various aggressive environments. The practical part is focused on the use of chemically non-reactive additives of type I instead of the commonly used additives of type II which are used to replace part of cement and the resulting design and manufacture of low-strength SCC using appropriate additives.

A study of the possibilities of using recycled concrete in the UAE for the production of structural concrete
Lakomá, Karolína ; Novosad, Petr (referee) ; Hela, Rudolf (advisor)
The thesis focuses on verifying the possibilities of utilizing recycled concrete aggregates originating from demolitions in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in structural concretes for ready-mix concrete technologies. The theoretical part summarizes knowledge in the field of recycled concrete aggregates, their preparation, and production. It outlines the standard requirements for the UAE, the Czech Republic and globally. Additionally, it describes the influences of recycled aggregates on fresh and hardened concrete. The goal of the experimental section was to verify the resulting properties of natural and recycled aggregates. Moreover, the thesis addresses the formulation design for reference and recycled concretes. Tests for both fresh and hardened concrete were conducted based on these formulations. This work compares the achieved results with those obtained in another study from the Czech Republic which is also focused on the use of recycled concrete. Furthermore, an economic analysis comparing the prices of reference and recycled concretes on 1 m3 is conducted within the experimental section.
