2. BUILDING STRUCTURES

2.1. SUPPORTING STRUCTURES

• The existing structural solution of the listed building is the same as the other buildings constructed in its time: vertical support structures with old-scale brick masonry, typically with Prussian vault floors on the upper floors.
• The building has continuous foundations, the characteristic materials of which are brick, limestone or a combination of the two.
• Most of the supporting structures are existing structures listed as historic, strengthened with reinforced concrete in some places.
• The middle main wall on the 3rd floor as well as the attic pillars, walls and floor slabs have a new reinforced concrete structure.
• The new stair structures are also made of reinforced concrete.

2.2. PARTITIONS

• They are typically designed with a drywall system, usually with a rib of 10 cm and two layers of 1.25 cm thick plasterboard on the two sides (impregnated in rooms with plumbing), with fibre sound insulation between ribs.
• The walls separating the units are Porotherm masonry plus Macuphon 20 soundproof concrete elements with 5 cm sound insulation and two layers of 1.25 cm plasterboard cover on two sides.
• Drywall front walls will be constructed, mostly for covering mechanical and electrical fittings.
• In rooms with plumbing, there is smeared waterproofing against domestic water.
• Dry plaster is applied to the main walls listed as historic.

2.3. SUSPENDED CEILING

• In the majority of the rooms, a suspended ceiling is installed for cooling and heating purposes, which is adjusted to the system.
• In general places, normal drywall boards (12.5 mm thick) were erected on a CD rib frame, installed with a nonius pendant.
• In the rooms with plumbing, impregnated drywall boards were used.

2.4. ROOF

• The roof is designed with a cover that fits both the listed nature and the contemporary appearance of the building. The 26° roof surface receives a medium grey artificial slate and fibre cement covering in a diamond layout.
• The lower section of the inclined roof towards Andrássy út and Liszt Ferenc tér will be uniformly covered with lamella shade screens. Behind it there is a glass roof and a terrace on some sections. The lamella row runs along the lower section of the roof, which appears to be a contiguous surface. The inserted terraces appear only as small splittings of the lamella row.
• A ceramic tile wall covering with a ventilated façade is made for the added attic due to its favourable building physical characteristics and its appearance, which fits both the listed neighbourhood and the contemporary world.

2.5. DOORS AND WINDOWS

• In the case of existing façades, the external windows are wooden windows re-manufactured in accordance with the listed nature on the upper floors, retaining the original division: the outer window leaves have two layers of heat-insulating glazing, keeping the existing dimensions, while the inner leaves are windows of a listed nature with one layer of glazing, which also meet the acoustic requirements. There is an air gap of 16 cm between the two window leaves. Rw+Ctr=30 dB and, towards Andrássy út, Rw+Ctr=35 dB.
• To close the hanging corridors, double-layer glazed aluminium windows are used, provided with sunscreen glazing.
• The penthouse level has new aluminium façade windows with three layers of high thermal and sound insulating glazing. Unobstructed lift-and-push terrace doors and tilt-and-turn window structures are installed.

2.6. SHADING

• There will be motorized interior shading curtains and interior roller blinds in every unit.
• On the penthouse level, motorized exterior roller shutters will be installed.
• Sun rooms will be shaded with motorized textile roller blinds.
