| Title of the article | Typology of mid-rise energy efficient residential buildings for the climatic conditions of the Middle Volga |
| Abstract. | The article under the title «Typology of mid-rise energy efficient residential building» deals with form building questions which are of current important in architecture – energy efficient residential building (EERB). Typology of low and middle number of storeys EERB is formed with regard to climatic conditions of Middle Volga. Typological division is performed in the first stage depending on the nature of the relationship with the environment, then - according to the different ways of implementing the principle of thermal zoning, the location of the buffer zones and heat core. Estimation of potential use of renewable energy sources is produced. Particular attention is given to a typology of middle number of storeys EERB – houses with the entrances to the apartment through the public communication. The atrium and sectional homes is described more detail. Energy-efficient sectional house is implemented in point (one unit), and linear (multisection) apartment building. Last one is divided according to the orientation in the meridional and latitudinal. The recommendations to improve their energy efficiency are given. Finally, conclusions are given. The factors determining the choice of type of law and mid-rise EERB is formulated. |
