Grančay, Martin ; Kolář, Radim (referee) ; Struhala, Karel (advisor)
The aim of this bachelor’s thesis is to design a two-storey detached energy efficient house for family with four members. First part of the thesis is focused on structural and architectural design of the house. The design will also include an assessment in terms of thermal engineering, acoustics, daylighting and sun glare and fire safety. The loadbearing structure of the house is a timber frame from I-joists which provides reduction of thermal bridges in wall structure. The main structure is supported by strip foundations made from reinforced concrete. On the first floor there is a main living area consisting of kitchen, dining area and living room with southwest views to the garden. On the first floor there are also rooms such as the office, utility room, toilet and entrance hall with windows facing to northeast direction. Second floor is designed to be the private zone of the house. On the second floor there is a master bedroom with en-suite, two children bedrooms, closet, bathroom and separate toilet. Second part of the thesis is focused on building services. The house is heated and cooled by an air-to-water heat pump system. The heating and cooling is provided by a radiant floor system. The heat pump's indoor unit has an integrated 190-liter hot water cylinder. The building also uses mechanical ventilation system with heat recovery with capacity of 350 m/h. Rainwater will be collected in a 6 m storage tank on the property with safety overflow to infiltration system. Photovoltaic panels will be installed on the roof of the house to generate electricity in a hybrid system with a capacity of 5,74 kWp.
