Passivhaus – basic principles

  • Aim: To reduce the requirement for space heating and cooling and primary

energy consumption, whilst also creating excellent indoor air quality and comfort levels

  • Fabric first approach to low energy buildings with
  • Excellent thermal performance
  • Exceptional air tightness
  • Mechanical ventilation

Passivhaus - Orientation & Area/Volume Ratio

Passivhaus recommends designing the building to be north / south facing, so that the solar gains can be shaded and controlled easier. An E-shaped building designed to achieve the correct orientation.

Thatched elements

slide-33
SLIDE 33

www.adaptcbe.co.uk adaptcbe.wordpress.com

  • Thatching materials were traditionally sourced locally;
  • straw is a by-product of food production and
  • reed grows across UK (including the Norfolk Broads)
  • Much now in the UK is imported (typically from eastern Europe)
  • increased embodied energy and carbon emissions, raising questions

around its sustainability credentials.

  • Currently thatch in the UK is limited to heritage conservation work.
  • Without innovation and adoption into new build its continued use will remain

limited

Benefits of thatch cladding panels

  • Sectional thatch cassettes constructed off site
  • Minimal waste
  • Weather and daylight construction issues reduced
  • Opportunity for panels to be constructed in ‘off-season’
  • No scaffolding required on site for erection
  • Quickly installed
