Sažetak
Multi-apartment buildings represent a particular, quantitatively very prominent category of buildings, consisting mostly of similar building types, frequently concentrated in specific locations, simple in form and suitable for determining the model of referential buildings for individual building periods. Architectural and engineering features of the existing housing stock presented through residential buildings in Croatia from the 1940, 1940-1970 and 1970-1987 periods is the starting point of analysis of energy features of buildings. Architectural and engineering measures for increasing energy efficiency foresee interventions, which need to be made on the exterior walls of the buildings, and parts of the walls facing unheated space and the ground and represent the basic precondition for envisaging other measures for achieving energy efficiency. Positive impacts of energy efficiency renovation of multi-apartment buildings are numerous, for both residents and the entire community: reduced energy consumption for heating, utility costs, noise and energy consumption and bigger thermal comfort, smaller maintenance costs, better living conditions, smaller negative environment impact, etc.
