Abstract

The aim of the work was to determine the best methods for increasing the insolation duration of rooms in residential buildings with high-density buildings using 10- and 16-story buildings. The results of theoretical studies on the analysis of possible methods for increasing the insolation duration of rooms of residential buildings are presented. In order to bring the insolation duration of these rooms to the required building codes, the following methods were considered: changing the orientation of the building, reducing the width of the loggia side screen, increasing the window width, changing the layout of the apartment, shifting the window to the north, shifting sections of the house, increasing the distance between the houses, the separation and displacement of the section of the house located closer to the south in the direction to the south, the change in the planning decisions, and reducing the height of the shading house. Scientific novelty. For the first time, a set of constructive methods for the design of rooms to provide insolation in rooms in residential buildings has been applied. Practical significance. This approach of constructive methods of effective insulation in residential buildings can be widely used in compact planning urban of microdistricts in big cities.
