1) Wooden frames were built for a hemp demonstration and training exercise since using frames allowed for reusability and avoided issues from weathering. 2) The frames were designed to stand freely, measured 2m by 1m, and had 400mm spacing to replicate an actual build. Horizontal battening and side panels were added for structural integrity. 3) Guide screws and wooden spacers were used to support shuttering for the hempcrete mix, which was poured and spread evenly before the shuttering was removed to reveal the finished wall.

Educational sheet hqe
The HEQ initiative aims to improve comfort in building construction and use through a global cost approach considering financial and environmental impacts from design through end of life. It is based on two parts: an operation management system to assess environmental management and a quality repository to evaluate architectural and technical performance. HEQ is a trademark validated by AFNOR certification inspired by energy performance labels with additional health, hydrological and plant dimensions. Some professionals prefer alternative standards like BREEAM due to criticisms of HEQ's lack of transparency and advocacy for industry interests.

It outlines the approved documents that contain technical guidance, such as L1A, L1B, L2A and L2B. The regulations require certain maximum U-values be achieved for insulation depending on the type and location of the building and construction element (e.g. wall, floor, roof). U-values measure heat loss and insulation performance, with lower values indicating better insulation. The regulations and guidance on U-values can be found on the Planning Portal website.

Photos log hemp - Tiverton Campus 26 February 2015
- 1. Hemp demonstration action Tiverton Campus 26th February 2015 Wooden frames were built prior to the training. Ordinarily, the frame and hemp would be built on a stone, brick or blockwork plinth to prevent water ingress / damp rising. Due to the time of year and the weather, and this being a training exercise, we decided just to use wooden frames. They were designed to be free standing so that they could be reused for future training. Wood used for the frames is 4x2. The frames are 2m long x 1m high, with 400mm spacing. This replicated the size of wood and spacing that would be needed in an actual build. Fixing horizontal battening Side panels cut to 200mm to allow an overall depth of 300mm. The horizontal battening placed along the length across the main frame is placed at approximately 600mm spacing. This acts as a key which provides extra strength to the hemp wall. Without this, there is no structural connection to the timber frame. Fixing the shuttering Guide screws (deck screws) are placed along with wooden spacers (wooden spacers are not screwed in but made so they push firmly into place). They act as support for the shuttering and for setting accurate spacing to allow for the overall 300mm. Wooden spacers are removed once the hempcrete reaches their level. Leaving the Screws in place until shuttering is moved.
- 2. Explaining how the framing and shuttering works Screws must not be left in as any metal fixings left exposed to hemp and lime mix will rot. Any metal fixing that will have contact should be stainless steel. Filling the pan mixer. Mix is 1 bag of hemp to two bags of lime binder and approximately 60 litres of water. The hempcrete mixed ready for use.
- 3. Pouring the hemp mix into the shuttering. Spreading evenly and lightly tamping down withpoles made by the participants from the battening. The hemp must not be pressed down with too much pressure as removing to much air will affect how thermally efficient it is.
- 4. Removing the shuttering to reveal the finished wall
- 5. Hempcrete Wall – the finished product
