Lake under Petrov - architectural and urban development of a space at the corner of streets "Biskupská" and "Petrov" (in a relation to the underground of Brno)
Zdražilová, Jana ; Pech, Zbyněk (referee) ; Kopáčik, Gabriel (advisor)
Solution idea Petrov is stoney bill in south-west part of Brno. You can find magnificent cellar on given land that is probably medieval and is partially carved in rock. Designed building follows up this rock developing to surface, where crystalizes and gradually grows and expands towards from „Šilingrovo náměstí“ to St. Petr and Pavel’s cathedral. Water is the other element – it wells from mouldering diabas rock to surface, thanks to cracked springs that can be found here. That creates a lake beneath Petrov. Water theme is projected to building interiors. This construction is characterised by great views, which are possible because of unique location of the site and the building itself is designed to use the most of them. From terrace, caffeteria and also multipurpose hall can anyone view cathedral, Zelný trh square and Parnas fountain. Function locations 1) Interest-activities more people more life. There used to be one of the oldest schools in Brno from half of 14th century. And because of that, although in modified form, I wanted to preserve this function of the place. I designed one classroom and a multipurpose hall, that can be used e.g. for dance lessons or - in a daytime, when there be no usage for the hall - for rentals for commercial purposes. 2) The entrance to medieval cellar carved into rock, that is under the site. There are two functional water wells, that constantly floods the cellar space. Water will be pumped out to terrace, where it will make a small lake. The whole space will function as a small gallery. 3) Caffeteria and sweetshop are located on very attractive place with spectacular views. Adjoining terrace will serve as summer garden that can be used by public all year round.
Study of the behavior of selected rocks at high temperatures
Holanec, Aleš ; Sitek,, Libor (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the observation and diagnostics of transformations that take place in stone slabs of different mineralogical composition during heating to high temperatures. The theoretical part of the thesis deals with a summary of available information about selected types of rocks. Furthermore, it presents findings from the experimental thermal loading of a granite sample. The principles and instruments of laboratory experimental methods that are used to judge the resistance of rocks are described in detail. In the experimental part, the testing methodology is proposed, the procedure of production of rock test specimens is described and the way in which the thermal loading of stone slabs took place is explained. The results of the experiments are shown in the tables and graphs. A comparison of individual tests and properties of selected samples and evaluation of the obtained results is performed.
Evaluation of fracture test of selected core-drilled cylindrical specimen
Halfar, Petr ; Sobek, Jakub (referee) ; Keršner, Zbyněk (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with effective crack model for a cylinder specimen with an chevron-shaped notch, loaded by a three-point bending. The first part of the thesis is theoretical and the it describes the use of fracture mechanics for quasi-brittle materials – concrete and rocks. Furthermore there is described the linear elastic fracture mechanics and founding the geometry function for a different geometries of fracture tests. The second part describes the FEM program, which was used to calculate the fracture parameters, that were used to determine the length of the effective crack and how the program was tested before it was used. The last part describe calculations of fracture toughness by using the effective crack model on selected rock and concrete specimens.
Detached Family Residence
Mikuš, Martin ; Vávra, Petr (referee) ; Vajkay, František (advisor)
The subject of this work is the design of a detached family house in area Nove Domky near Jihlava in which natural construction materials were used. Instead of concrete or bricks, this building is designed with materials such as straw, rock, timber, clay, hemp or sheep's wool. Furthermore, the work deals with methods of plumbing, electrical installations and heating. The possible utilization of natural energy resources or ecological processing of waste were also taken into account. The conclusion contains the financial comparison with a building where traditional and industrially produced materials are used.
The GAP in Brno
Choutka, Jiří ; Selnarová, Elisabeth (referee) ; Palaščák, Michal (advisor)
In my work I deal with the design of an apartment building in a gap in the center of Brno at Kopečná and Husova streets. The gap is located on a relatively deep place, which is bounded on the northeast, from Husova Street, by a steep and high slope (the body of the road between the Main Railway Station and Šilingr Square). The gap is located in a busy place and is exposed to noise from Husova Street. There are important historical and architecturally valuable buildings in the area. The functional content of the building is housing. In the design, I try to respond appropriately to the surrounding situation and adapt the building functionally and operationally. The effort was to meet all the requirements of the housing operation and insert new value into the existing city structure.
Portrait of rock
Svatoš, Jan ; Mikolášek, Martin (referee) ; Kvíčala, Petr (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the memory of the Icelandic rock through a series of abstract paintings anchored in the aesthetics of process painting. The author paints the paintings on the basis of a synthesis of personal experience, a metaphorical conception of geological processes and drawing from a digital photographic master, and observes the relationship between the painter and his painting in the sense of building a painting as an entity with subjective needs. At the same time, the work examines the overlaps and possibilities of abstract painting to stimulate an imagination that changes the resulting meaning and content in relation to its creator or viewer.
Influence of the mixing plant manufacturing temperatures on the properties of aggregates
Brtníková, Tereza ; Stehlík, Dušan (referee) ; Hýzl, Petr (advisor)
The bachelor thesis describes the production process of aggregate and production process of asphalt mixing in batch asphalt mixing plant. There is also mentioned the test procedure of endurance against grind and against freezing and defrosting. The tests were did on 3 types of rocks, which have been burdened by temperature on 110 °C, 200 °C and 300 °C. Then were the results compared.

Study of resistance of selected aggregates to high temperatures
Holanec, Aleš ; Sitek,, Libor (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
The thesis deals with the monitoring of changes taking place in natural stones and aggregates under high temperatures. The theoretical part of the work provides information about basic groups of rocks, the technology of processing the natural stone and primarily about the study of behavior of natural stone and aggregates at high temperatures. Also some findings from different research works aimed at monitoring the behavior of rocks at high temperatures are presented. In the experimental part a selection of rocks with a higher expected resistance to high temperatures is made, including detailed information and description. Further in this section we provide the comparison of the properties of individual rocks. Later we describe the most important methods of testing, the procedure of preparation of rock samples and we design an experiment to use for evaluation of resistance of rocks and aggregates under high temperatures.
