Disorders window openings – family house in Lipno nad Vltavou

Abstract

Abstract The aim of this paper was to assess the state of the window openings and the height positioning of the sliding window HST portal (heroal S 77 HI) and the design of the repair. During the construction-technical survey, it was found that this is an unfinished (unconditioned) new building of the family house. It is a freestanding detached family house, the object is partially recessed into the terrain. The building is built of brick technology with a wooden roof structure. It has been found that the windows are visibly damaged by the connection gap, especially from the interior side in the lower corners of the windows. At this point, the cleaner APU strip was detached from the plaster and the plaster was severely damaged. Further, measurements were made to reveal the frames of the windows and their glass fillings towards the interior. In addition to all the fixed windows, the rest of the windows fitted also showed a slight deflection and lack of anchoring. Fitting the HST portal goes against the owner´s requirements to a zero transition between the clean floor of the interior and the minimization of the staircase towards the terrace of the building.
