TECHNICAL AND ARCHITECTURAL PROBLEMS IN REVITALISATION OF PREFABRICATED RESIDENTIAL COMPLEXES

The subject of this paper are the issues connected with revitalisation of prefabricated residential complexes built in industrial technology. The article focuses on modernisation of prefabricated residential complexes in terms of architectural and technical issues of the buildings. The reason for this is the fact that there is a systematic improvement in the quality of housing environment and attractiveness of housing areas and also the issue of revitalisation should be popularized. Popularizing this subject in Poland serves to refute false information that the exploitation of these residential estates is coming to an end. Current research confirmed with the technical expertise on possibilities of further use and an unflagging interest in old ‘high-rise housing developments’ may be an encouragement for revitalisation works. In this paper the attention is paid to technical issues of the housing developments connected with building defects, exploitation damage, diagnosis and modernisation of the buildings and also the architectural possibilities of new solutions within revitalization. Additionally, the paper presents the results of the survey carried out among the residents concerning the architectural aspects of Sadyba residential estate in Warsaw and diagnosis of some problematic issues.
