Reconstruction of the Municipal Bath House
The paper describes static failures, reconstruction and redevelopment of reinforced concrete load-carrying structures in the Municipal Bath House in Moravská Ostrava. The building was built at the beginning of the 1960s.The architectural, structural and typological features are typical of that time. Several rather serious failures have occurred during the operation in the reinforced concreted load-carrying skeleton and the bath tub structure. Reasons for the failures and general degradation of some parts of the reinforced concrete included undermining, weather, leakage of aggressive water and vapour from baths, saunas, laundry and other facilities. This paper describes the static underpinning, improvement of the degraded reinforced concrete structures and technical aspects of transformation of a former civil defence shelter into a wellness and swimming centre.
