ARCHITECTURAL ANALYSIS OF PLANNING SOLUTIONS FOR THE FIRST URAL FACTORY HOSPITALS

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №4 (44) December, 2013

The article reviews Ural factory hospitals from various periods and styles: Nizhni-Tagil hospital (Demidov hospital), Zlatoust factory hospital and Satka factory hospital. Comparative analysis covers the plans and front elevations, and layout features, and identifies non-communicating chains of sanitary premises and wards for infectious patients. Differences in the layout and mix of premises enable tracking the evolution of the hospital lay-out and assessing the effects of changes on the planning structure of the buildings as a whole.
