Wood-based materials belong to the popular and widely used materials in the building industry. For example, these plates can be easily used to create often complicated details. Not all wood-based materials are suitable for the proposed environment. The effect of mistaking the choice of the right wood-based material and its application to an inappropriate environment can then result in the destruction of the details of the particular part of the structure and thus often involves a considerable financial cost to rep...

Designing flat roofs has many issues and decisions. This can be, for example, the decision on how to close the flat roof. By default, roofs are terminated at the periphery by means of attics or by creating a so-called rigid edge of the roof. This paper focuses on the first option, and therefore the termination of the flat roof using the atics. The author is dealing with the findings with regard to the way the proposal is implemented and the subsequent realization of the details. As a major waterproofing layer, fil...

The need for construction of new buildings is currently still growing. For construction are also used areas that were previously labelled as unsuitable or less suitable in terms of subsoil. The design, construction and implementation of building foundation, including subsoil modifications (foundation base) has a decisive influence on the building lifespan and its safety. This article presents an application of risk analysis method Umra (Universal Risk matrix analysis) to classify different types of subsoil. The me...

Wood based panels are mostly used in the building industry. Using these panels in details of flat roofs is one from their advantages. Problem occurs in the case of increased humidity mainly by leakage or water vapor condensation in the construction which causes degradation of panels. That causes also changes in basic characteristics and reduces the bearing capacity. This work contains utilization of the most used wooden panels. In thesis author evaluates influence of humidity in flat roofs details on creation of m...
