Thermally-Technical Comparing of Traditional Double Timber Window and Eurowindow

Abstract:

The windows are situated on the northwest part of facade of historically valuable residential building in Prague. The building was erected in 1935-37 in functionalism style according to project of architect Richard F. Podzemný. The building has got status of cultural heritage and its structure is formed by reinforced concrete load bearing frame with lining bricks. Traditional double timber windows in the building still exist, but are currently in poor technical condition. According to project of reconstruction the exchange of existing windows by new simple eurowindows with sealed unit was designed. In accordance with the requirements of conservationists the same dimension of glazing and frames of windows in exterior were to be conserved. Existing and planned windows were from thermally technical aspects calculated by two dimensional model software system Area 2011.
