The idea fulfilled with the
building technology of IBT is to
combine the advantages of all
known building systems, avoiding
their disadvantages. The result
is a perfect building
technology, which is:
CHEAPER
The elements are produced in
factory conditions with constant
control of quality and they are
assembled on site. This saves
extra materials, working with
INDUSTRIAL PRODUCT with exact
sizes and constant parameters.
This saves labor on site. It
makes the work onsite easy and
does not require qualified
labor. The system saves work and
time, e.g. it saves expenses.
With a few people more work is
done for less time.
Buildings constructed by the
system IBT weigh less than
classic monolithic buildings
with 30% to 50%. Internal and
external walls are from material
(polyester produced by BASF
Germany) weighing 15-25 kg/m3,
as for classic building bricks
weigh 1000-1300 kg/m3. This
leads to significant economy of
transport expenses for bringing
the materials, economy of energy
and significantly reduced green
gas emissions. The small weight
of the building leads to lighter
and more economical foundation,
as well as lighter and more
economical earthquake resistant
constructions. The economy of
steel for construction is up to
50% and up to 25% for concrete.
The total economy of funds is
30% compared to the traditional
building technologies. The
economy comes from optimization
of the construction as well –
reinforced concrete is placed
only where needed. The floor
constructions are thin grilled
slabs. Stairway sides are also
much lighter, since they are no
build from concrete, but 50%
polyester. The floors of the
building built with IBT are flat
underneath (no beams) which
makes the distribution easy to
design and easier for redesign.
At the same time the different
floors of the buildings are heat
and sound insulated which is a
sure comfort without extra
effort such as time and money,
because it is integrated in the
system.
Laying on the electricity, water
and other installations is done
much faster, avoiding tearing of
brick and reinforced concrete
walls and ceilings. Canals are
melted in the polyester elements
with hot-air pistols and the
laying on of the installations
is done in minutes.
Living expenses for such
buildings are 70% less, and
“warming” and “cooling” can be
reduced to zero.
FASTER
Industrial production, light
elements, the lack of hard and
slow processes such as formwork
and de-formwork, laying the heat
insulation (since these
processes are integrated into
the system IBT) and dropping the
need for heavy machinery leads
to 50% shortening the duration
of the construction process in
comparison with traditional
solid construction. The system
does not require equipment
formwork, but only attachment
andsupport of the elements that
constitute remaining formwork –
the formwork remain in the
construction of the building as
a function of heat and sound
insulation. The system does not
require de-formwork because the
remaining elements remain as
formwork.
STRONGER
Earthquake sustainability of
these buildings is proven in
practice in earthquake countries
such as Italy, Mexico, Chile (in
total 50 countries in the
world), as floors ranged from 1
to 25, the highest, built with
similar technology in a building
in Mexico City – strong
earthquake region.
Earthquake resistance in
principle is provided with the
construction of the building.
ІВТ system is designed to build
monolithic reinforced concrete
buildings by remaining thermal
formwork. The high buildings are
similar to buildings built with
large-area formwork structures,
but done with IBT. Seismic,
anti-hurricane, ballistic tests
done in leading laboratories in
Europe and the U.S. demonstrate
clearly that the deformations
caused by an earthquake to a
building done with IBT
technology, are 20 times smaller
in comparison with the
traditional solid construction.
The construction of such a
building resists shooting with
wooden beams and metal pipes at
a speed to 160 km / h, even
shooting with automatic firearm.
Surface damage is minimal,
without penetration to the inner
surface of outside walls.
BETTER HEAT AND SOUND
INSULATION
Heat insulation is integrated
into the system, i.e. avoiding
special construction work
"veneering", which are manual
processes. And something
important, which will be
revealed in future - time is
coming to put in thick
insulation. Across Europe many
have already installed 20-25-30
cm insulation boards outside
their buildings and inside at
the same time, because energy is
expensive and will get more
expensive constantly, but also
because administrative
directives are to reduce
greenhouse gases and parameters
of heat insulation, are becoming
more stringent. European
administration is also
encouraging better thermal
insulation with exempt from
building tax for 10 - 15 years
proving achieved normative
values. How do we make, however,
thick insulation on classical
solid building? The answer is -
expensive. Because plastic dubel
is not suitable for thickness
over 15 cm Then you have to do
mechanical anchorages with
increased complexity, cost and
time for installation. IBT
system has a built-in ability to
provide thermal insulation with
a total thickness of 35 cm,
without any technical
complications.
Sound insulation achieved with
the IBT is up to 6 times better
compared to traditional solid
construction.
BETTER FIRE RESISTANCE
Fulfilling the REI 150 standard
ensures that polyester items are
melting and self-extinguish,
i.e. do not support combustion,
while not releasing harmful
gases into the atmosphere.
Heatting to 1000 degrees Celsius
on one side of the double
element will lead to heating of
45 - 50 degrees Celsius on the
other side of the element after
3.5 hours. This is a result of
polyester melting and five
different layers of the
structure of the finished item.
MORE ENVIRONMENTAL
The technology involves the most
- environmental production and
construction processes. The
construction site is
environmentally clean, not
polluted with waste from
traditional building processes -
cuttings from wood, steel,
thermal insulation and concrete
residue. The production of items
itself is no-waste.
Significantly lower energy costs
for heating and cooling of
buildings while living in also
lead to reduction of emissions
into the air.
MORE ELLEGANT and FLEXIBLE
ARCHIECTUAL AND CONSTRUCTIVE
DECISIONS
Typology of the IBT elements is
flexible; it allows any perfect
adaptations to the architectural
requirements of the project,
which allows the creation of any
kind of flat and bended walls
and surfaces. In other systems
based on factory produced
elements, architectural
decisions comply with the
nomenclature of the elements and
their sizes. So when observed
architectual works are typical
with dimensions multipliable of
the size of their classification
elements.
IBT elements can be changed on
any individual and unique
architectural projects.
Finally, the IBT system presents
optimal solution to the
construction requirements for
“living comfort” with the
economic advantages of
construction and use of the
building.
