The paper presents technology of monitoring a reinforced concrete pillar-connector of prefabricated walls. Prefabricated units made from a modified Polytech mortar containing expanded polystyrene derived from recycling were used to build a residential object. Reinforced concrete pillars that serve as wall connectors in Polytech system are load-bearing elements. In order to control the reinforced concrete connector of prefabricated walls under realistic conditions, a control technology was applied that involved int...

Design strategy requires the proper order of actions. Each stage of the investment focuses on the data set and the results of conducted investigations. A virtual 3D model and computer simulations facilitate and accelerate the work of designers. Thanks to proper planning and consequent schedule implementation the whole project is carried in a timely manner. Proper logistics of actions, combined with the implementation strategy, translates also into the amount of incurred expenses. The specified order of actions, to...

The paper describes a technology of controlling a prefabricated wall made of new material called Polytech used to produce prefabricated units. Prefabricated units made from a modified Polytech mortar based on expanded polystyrene derived from recycling were used to build a single-family residential building. Prefabricated elements are provided as wall panels. In order to control the prefabricated wall under realistic conditions, an innovative control technology was suggested that involved installation of a fiber B...

The paper describes technology of monitoring a joist slab used in a single-family residential building constructed in the Polytech system. Prefabricated units made from a modified mortar based on expanded polystyrene derived from recycling were used to manufacture building walls. The joist slab is based on prefabricated walls, by means of a reinforced concrete tie beam. In order to control the tie beam under realistic conditions, a monitoring technology was suggested that involved introducing fiber Bragg gratings ...
