Resumen de Building diagnostic and pathological analysis of residential buildings of Budapest
A detailed building diagnostic and condition assessment was prepared about a considerable part of the buildings in District XIII of Budapest. I have processed 342 expert opinions altogether on the basis of building structure and building diagnostic aspects.
Expert opinions have been arranged in 3 groups and studied accordingly (multi-storey buildings, single-storey buildings, single-storey buildings in generally poor condition). The buildings were built between 1880 and 1950.
A joint study of such buildings provides valuable information about the structures and building defects of condominiums built in Budapest in various ages.
Connections can be discovered between the age, structural system, materials of the buildings and the diagnosed construction defects. In the study these connections are demonstrated by diagrams and figures, too. Since there are residential buildings of similar condition in various districts of Budapest, the experience, gained from analyses, can be efficiently utilized in the course of the rehabilitations of town quarters.
