| Abstract [eng] |
With the rapid expansion of modernization in Lithuania’s multi-apartment residential buildings, the selection of a high-performance facade system has become particularly important. Therefore, to determine the most effective facade system alternative, a comparative analysis of external ventilated thermal insulation facade systems used in the modernization of multi-apartment buildings is conducted. The aim of this study is to perform a comparative analysis of external ventilated thermal insulation facade systems with structural frame brackets used in the renovation (modernization) of multi-apartment residential buildings by applying the TOPSIS method. Tasks: 1. To analyse foreign and Lithuanian scientists’ publications and research related to facade systems used in the modernization of multi-apartment buildings. 2. To describe the calculation procedures, the TOPSIS method, and the expert survey evaluation methodologies used in the study. 3. To perform a comparative analysis of external ventilated thermal insulation facade systems with structural frame brackets used in the modernization of multi-apartment building facades by applying the TOPSIS method. The first part of the Master’s thesis provides a comprehensive review of the scientific literature. The second part delineates the calculation procedures, the TOPSIS method, and the methodology applied for expert survey evaluations. In the research section of the Master’s thesis, a comparative analysis was undertaken of ventilated thermal insulation systems incorporating structural frame brackets, as implemented in the modernization of multi-apartment buildings. Four facade systems featuring different types of frame brackets (stainless steel, basalt fiber composite, galvanized steel, and aluminum alloy) were examined. These alternatives were evaluated in terms of the energy performance classes “A” and “B” of the modernized building. The Master’s thesis consists of summaries in Lithuanian and English, an introduction, three chapters, conclusions, a list of references, and appendices. Its total length is 66 pages, and the list of literature and information sources comprises 65 entries. |
