The reconstruction of apartments in brick five-story buildings is a lot of money. And the legal question arises: is it not easier to buy an apartment in a new house?
In this issue, we offer you two implemented apartment reconstruction project with the same initial layout, which provides an excellent opportunity to assess how the final result depends on the wishes of the owners of the house and the creative preferences of architects and designers. We do not want to compare these apartments in any way, since each of them was created taking into account the set of factors. Our goal is completely different, the heading "New Apartment" is designed to show the entire range of modern design opportunities in relation to the most common types of residential buildings in our country. What we live in typical houses is not at all obliges us to live in standard apartments.
Ordinary three-bedroom apartments in brick five-story buildings are unrecognizable after reconstruction. The houses themselves served long enough. And many designs have become unusable, so in the process of redevelopment a lot of effort was spent on their replacement. Broke partitions, changed floors, windows, radiators. It comes to a completely legitimate question, whether it was necessary to try it all, given the not quite clear further fate of the Khrushchev four- and five-story buildings. Is it necessary to buy an apartment in a new house? In the case, the answer may be only one: of course reconstruct, because at home in which these apartments are built of bricks. Votchchychi from panel Khrushchev, brick five-story buildings will be reconstructed in accordance with State Task Force "Residence" . Sulting cities of Russia in the order of the experiment were allocated quarters of five-story buildings, on which various ways to solve this problem were trying. Homeland, to date, construction at all sites is suspended due to financing difficulties. Nevertheless, we give excerpts from the text "The main directions of the new stage of the implementation of the State Task Force" Housing "relating to this topic.
The main directions of work on updating residential buildings of the first mass series should be overhaul, ensuring the preservation of buildings; Modernization of buildings, providing for partial redevelopment and re-equipment of apartments, improving the heat-preserves of buildings, improving the architecture of facades; Reconstruction providing for additional area due to add-in, expansion of the building and an extension of new volumes.
During the reconstruction of buildings, it is possible to obtain additional areas due to the supro-floor superstructure without large material and financial costs. Calculations confirm that the superstructure of the attic floors is possible with a payback of 1.5-2 years and the period of construction work on average at one house in 3-4 months. Modern technical solutions allow these works without removing residents. The device of mansard floors in the reconstruction of buildings, as well as with new construction, provides an increase in the total area of the house by 10-15 percent, reduce heat loss by 5-7 percent, decrease in the cost of construction by 10-15 percent.
