The process of creating a project for a residential building should be carried out with special care, taking into account the purpose of the future building.. Therefore, each architectural element must be carefully designed. And the typology of residential buildings used in our time is very diverse, since it has a long history..
First of all, it should be taken into account that the design of residential buildings should be carried out taking into account the architectural features of the area where the building is located. In this regard, even at the design stage, great attention should be paid to the appearance of buildings that will be located next to a residential building, and to select the most suitable materials for the implementation of architectural solutions.
Residential buildings should be placed at a distance stipulated by the current Building codes and regulations. The same regulatory document regulates issues regarding the size of the adjoining land plot. Determination of the number of storeys and the length of a residential building is determined by the developed development project. All data in the specified document must also be obtained in accordance with the previously indicated building codes.
The project of a multi-storey building should ensure the normal functioning of low-mobility groups of residents, the accessibility of the site, entrances and apartments for people with special needs who use wheelchairs. If it is planned to build apartment buildings for the elderly, then their height should not exceed nine floors..
The main provision that must be taken into account during the creation of a residential building project is the definition of the type of house based on providing access to residential cells and communication with the ground level. Based on this, there is a division of buildings into two types: elevator residential buildings and non-elevator buildings. Their internal arrangement is distinguished by the design of the stairs, the number of lift shafts and other characteristics..
Also, certain requirements are imposed on residential buildings, taking into account their number of storeys. So, for houses up to nine floors, it is planned to design one elevator shaft, and for houses up to sixteen — two. In addition, special requirements are imposed on residential buildings above sixteen floors regarding the presence of smoke-free zones..
