In today's urban housing construction, the most common layout is P44T, which has a number of unconditional advantages. Back in the seventies, the construction of new houses of the P44 series began according to standard projects. In fact, this was the first step towards the further development and implementation of more modern technology for the construction and planning of living space.
P44T layout features
П44T - a layout with dimensions that meet the requirements of the present, offers about ten solutions. Variants of residential sections for ordinary and corner apartments have been developed. This planning model is used for residential multi-storey buildings with a height of 9 to 25 floors. For comfortable lifting of residents and furniture to the desired floor, at least two elevators are provided: passenger and cargo.
Modern planning ideas
The main idea of the P44T layout is the maximum use of space. In this context, an example of a successful engineering solution can be given, which made it possible to increase the area of \u200b\u200bthe kitchen. So important for every hostesssquare meters of the kitchen were freed up by placing a ventilation duct in the hallway. P44T - layout with dimensions assuming a room height of 2.7 m, which provides comfort and good access to daylight in the apartments. Modern planning ideas have made it possible to use attic space. On the attic floors, the layout of the P44T apartment with the step sizes of the transverse walls increased to 4.2 m, makes it possible to improve the premises. Often they are combined with a regular floor, resulting in a two-story apartment.
Advantages of P44T
House P44T layout with dimensions of internal floors of 0.14 m and 0.18 m is reliable and has a long service life. The wear resistance and stability of the outer walls against external influences is ensured by finishing with ceramic tiles 0.30 m thick, imitating brick, which are securely fixed to the facade. The use of high-quality double-glazed windows guarantees good thermal insulation, noise protection and creates comfort. Equipped with various modern control systems, it guarantees safety in case of fire and in case of the threat of flooding. Also, in multi-storey buildings of this type, sensors for opening doors of technical rooms and electric meters are installed. P44T - layout with dimensions corresponding to the standard norms of these projects, involves laying electricity wires inside the panels. This increases the safety of operation and the protection of the wires themselves during any repair or construction work.
Very important advantages of a house with a P44T layout are short construction times and a long period of operation. Service life guaranteed by specialists is more than one hundred years.
The layout of P44T with walls much larger than in buildings under construction in previous years provides additional structural reliability, better sound insulation of apartments and good thermal insulation of rooms. During construction, high-quality heavy concrete is used, which is responsible for increased wear resistance.
Disadvantages of P44T
Along with a number of advantages, there are some disadvantages that can be found in houses of this type. One of them is the unevenness of the walls and floors. It is not difficult to eliminate such a disadvantage by performing alignment and providing additional sound insulation.
Technological differences in the layout of P44T 25
Layout P44T 25 with the dimensions described below is a modern and improved type of layout used for residential buildings with a height of 25 floors with an increase in the area of apartments. In this type of houses, the width of the wall pitch in cross section is greater, and three-room apartments are equipped with an additional bathroom. Technological differences P44T 25 consist in an increased number of storeys with an increased number of elevators to three with a carrying capacity of two of them 630 kg each and one - 400 kg. The kitchen area has been increased to 9 square meters. m in one-room apartments; up to 15.9 sq. m in two-room linear; up to 13.8 sq. m - in three-room and large two-room apartments. General areas1-/2-/3-room apartments are 37, 4–38, 8/51, 7–63, 4/77–84, 6 square meters. m respectively.
Bay windows in P44T houses
P44T - layouts with the dimensions indicated above increasingly include the use of bay windows, making apartments not only aesthetically more attractive, but also increasing the area of the room. Part of the window space is taken out to the external facade in the form of a ledge of a trapezoid or other shape, thus increasing the volume of the room. Most often this method is used in kitchens. Thanks to the bay windows, the room receives additional illumination, increased space, and the facade of the house looks more attractive. The protrusions can be of various shapes: rectangular, triangular, polygonal or rounded. It is possible to use and design a bay window as a separate zone, then it is separated from the main room by a bar counter or a visual partition, for example, a screen. The truncated version, the half-window, is also well-deservedly popular.
Design solutions for kitchens or rooms with a bay window can be much more interesting than usual.
P44T - a layout with dimensions that are perfect for a comfortable life, is by far the most common in multi-storey residential buildings. Architects and designers who worked on solving the problems of maximum convenience of apartments not only implemented them in the project, but also made the layout interesting and original.
