MODERN ARCHITECTURE AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY

The article analyzes the design solutions for the outer walls of residential buildings built in 2020-2022 in a city that belongs to the II temperature zone of Ukraine. The outer walls of the monolithic reinforced concrete frame of the building are made of hollow brick 250 mm thick with a façade system of heat-insulating and finishing class A. A verification thermotechnical calculation of the outer wall was carried out, taking into account heat-conducting inclusions, the reduced heat transfer resistance of an opaque enclosing structure (wall) does not correspond to the minimum allowable value of heat transfer resistance of the corresponding structure according to DBN V.2.6 – 31:2016 for the II temperature zone. When taking into account the effect of air permeability on reducing the overall level of thermal protection of the fence, it was determined that the calculated reduced value of the resistance to heat transfer of the outer wall will be even lower due to the fact that the structure consists of light cellular materials with a significant breathability. External enclosing structures and internal, dividing rooms with a temperature difference of 4 ° C or more, have insufficient insulation thickness. When developing insulation measures, the effect of air filtration through wall structures made of lightweight materials is not taken into account. The requirements for the insulation of complex structural units of enclosing structures to prevent the formation of "cold bridges", for example, a balcony slab, are not met. Translucent structures, which occupy more than 50% of the facades, are the cheapest, their heat transfer resistance is less than the minimum allowable value. Based on the results of the analysis, the main measures to improve the energy efficiency of residential multi-storey buildings were identified to enable the installation of large windows in residential and public buildings in the climatic conditions of Ukraine.
