在20世纪60年代,数以千计的高中层单面走廊街区被设计和建造,使用预制混凝土覆层系统。大多数都是以劣质材料和劣质工艺、监督不力和环境服务不足为特征的,这些问题后来恶化到年久失修的状态。主要原因是冷凝、进水和冷桥效应,原因是能效标准低和缺乏隔热材料。最初的设想是,在其寿命结束时,这些问题将通过采用“高科技”部件来解决,这些部件包括复合覆层方法和高度自动化的环境服务,以提高运行效率并优化其长期耐用性和寿命成本周期。然而,事实证明,这笔费用超出了客户的承受能力。为了满足当今用户的要求和现行的建筑条例,必须重新考虑整个过程;必须制定其他具有成本效益的维修和节能办法。本文对英国伯明翰部分地区高层建筑的低成本维护和翻新方法进行了批判性的评估。
During the 1960s, thousands of high‐ and medium‐rise single sided corridor blocks were designed and constructed using prefabricated concrete cladding systems. Most were characterised by inferior quality material and poor workmanship, poor supervision and inadequate environmental services which subsequently deteriorated to a state of disrepair. The main culprits were condensation, water ingress and cold bridging effects owing to low energy efficiency standards and lack of thermal insulation. It was initially contemplated that at the end of their life span these problems would be remedied by adopting “high‐tech” components involving composite cladding methods and highly automated environmental services to improve the operational efficiency and optimise their long‐term durability and life cost cycle. However, the cost has proved to be beyond client affordability. Meeting the requirements of today’s users and the current building regulations necessitated rethinking of the whole process; and alternative cost‐effective maintenance and energy efficient approaches had to be developed. This paper critically evaluates the approach to low‐cost maintenance and refurbishment of high‐rise buildings in parts of Birmingham, UK.
