Original Abstract

The authors have been working for a long time on the development of sophisticated flat roof renovation that would allow renovation without the need of removing the existing roof layers and so will have a positive environmental impact. The solution is based on the detailed hydrothermal analysis of flat roof and using the potential of the original materials. Subsequently, new layers of the flat roof with optimal parameters for a certain case and possible other construction modifications are designed. The aim of the development is to create methodology to achieve equilibrium humidity by perforation of the original waterproof layer. In the paper, the authors describe the key points of this methodology. However, the paper focuses on the economic aspect that this sophisticated renovation brings. Economic evaluation is described through two methodological approaches. The authors compare the developed method with the method involving renovation of flat roofs with the need of removing the existing roof layers. The comparison takes into account the use of different materials for waterproofing and thermal insulation. In order to determine the costs, the authors used the building software to create budgets. The presented economic evaluation confirms the essence of the developed method.
