• W566126927 abstract "Silos are standing empty at many locations around us but what to do with these massive grain cylinders, who no longer serve the purpose they once were intended for, there are different opinions about. There are numerous examples found, including in our neighbouring countries, of silos that have been converted into housing. This report examines seven such projects with the objective to highlight problems and solutions that may occur when concrete silos are being converted into housing. The three issues addressed are: How potential moisture and odor problems are taken care of in view of previous use. How the existing structure is affected by new openings in the facade and the introduction of joists and how these problems are solved. How good apartment plans are made from the given shape and the set requirements for housing in Sweden.The results, calculations and analysis presented in this report are mainly based on interviews conducted with responsible people from the seven selected projects, as well as for this additional literature. The interviews have been rich sources of valuable and interesting information, some of which are presented in this report. Study visits were made to five of the seven projects, which were extremely enlightening.Considering the silos previous use and depending on if they have been open or not, they can be victims of moister problems or bad smell. For all of the investigated silos these issues have been solved, or are about to be solved. The conclusion made, based on these objects, is that open silos usually mean moisture problems while closed silos usually result in bad odors.Concerning the structure there is normally no need for making any reinforcements as a result of new openings made in the concrete walls, as long as the location of the apartments is limited to the inside of the silo tubes, as the joists then interconnect the walls and strengthens the structure. The openings should not be larger though than what is normally required for doors and windows. For silos with apartments partially or entirely located outside of the silo tubes the studies of these projects have shown that reinforcements may be necessary.Concerning the apartment plans four plan principles along with what they may imply are introduced. The main factor influencing what principle to design according to is the diameter of the cylinders, but the choice of principle may also be a result of demands from authorities or a matter of aesthetic taste. All of the investigated projects do not meet the Swedish requirements of availability and for those who do not the main reason for this is the bathrooms, where it generally isn’t possible for a wheelchair to turn around or enough room to place it beside the toilet. All of these projects could most likely have fulfilled every requirement if they only had been taken into account during the design stage. With kitchens built in round rooms a corollary if you do not plan carefully can be that cabinet doors and drawers crash into or lock each other. To avoid this issue a number of solutions have been developed which are presented in the report." @default.
