Mind the Gap - What can Passive House Design teach us about closing the build...Elrond Burrell
Buildings often use 200% more energy than predicted, emit more CO2 than they should and are uncomfortable to occupy. Even 'sustainable' buildings. This is known as the Building Performance Gap. Passive House design has effectively eliminated the gap - so what can we learn from Passive House Design?
Building an even better Passivhaus SchoolNick Grant
Presentation at the 19th International Passivhaus Conference in Leipzig. An overview of some key lessons gained building 3 passivhaus primary schools with the same team. The Architect is Architype who specialise in buildings to the Passivhaus or Passive House Standard.
A key lesson was that internal heat gain assumptions have a large impact on design decisions when targeting the passivhaus energy targets. The third school in this series had the lowest cost, highest comfort and lowest energy consumption.

Is Passivhaus a step too far? South Pacific Passive House Conference Auckland...Nick Grant
Is the Passivhaus standard too extreme for a mild climate such as New Zealand? Do we really need to do all the modelling and calculations if we max out the insulation and air tightness? Nick Grant's first presentation at the first South Pacific Passive House Conference in Auckland aims to explore these questions.

R&M Developments & Property Group Ltd - offsite history elements 2018 full co...Thomas McKenna
The Government Housing White Paper: “Fixing Our Broken Housing Market” (February 2017) states there are insufficient housing numbers in England. It identifies a three-fold problem: “not enough local authorities planning for the homes they need; house building that is simply too slow; and a construction industry that is too reliant on a small number of big players.” The solutions identified are summarised as being to build homes in the right places, faster and to diversify the housing market. R&M Property Groups are uniquely designed to meet all of these challenges. We only use ethically sourced and free trade products in our factory's. Innovation and design are at the fore-front of our minds. In order that we review and prioritise new energy saving and renewable concepts. This ultimately provides us to be sympathetic to our local and wider environment. Consideration for our homes end-user also by lowering life cycle cost and hope one day to wipe out fuel poverty for all. We are working with some of the U.Ks greatest minds and consultants on making our urban and rural homes as efficient as possible by using our earths own energy's.

Passive House for Medium Density Housing in NZElrond Burrell
Slides of a theoretical study undertaken in 2018 and presented at the South Pacific Passive House Conference in Melbourne. The study looks at what performance a medium-density apartment building in New Zealand needs to achieve Passive House.
Gives an overview of Passive House in New Zealand at the time, an overview of medium-density housing, and international examples of Passive House medium-density housing. Details and results of the study are provided as well as a comparison to the New Zealand building code.
Conference paper: Passive House for Medium Density Housing in NZ (2018)Elrond Burrell
Conference paper presented at the South Pacific Passive House Conference in Melbourne 2018.
The Passive House standard is often associated with single-family homes. In NZ, only single- family homes (and a two-family home) have been certified to the standard to date (2018.) In fact, the standard can be applied to most building typologies and sizes. Scaling up to medium-density housing (MDH) actually makes it easier to achieve the standard. This is due to the inherent efficiencies (good thermal envelope to floor area ratio) of multi-unit housing.
Housing densification is an important topic in NZ due to the increasing population and a notable housing shortage in the main centres. This has been reflected in the government, official bodies and the construction industry giving more attention to MDH in recent years.
With these different factors at play, it seems like there is a good opportunity for Passive House MDH uptake in NZ. And, it is hoped that this study can contribute in a small way towards the development of Passive House MDH in NZ.

Architype - Green BIM UK Perspective, NTU Taipei, 13 February 2014Elrond Burrell
Building Information Modelling (BIM) is rapidly becoming the industry standard in building design globally. The UK government has announced that all centrally procured constructions projects need to use BIM by 2016 and expect this to reduce capital cost and the carbon burden from the construction and operation of the built environment by 20%. In Taiwan, the Head of the Construction and Planning Agency (CPA) announce that Taiwan government will support BIM development in public policy.
Architype are leaders in the the field of Sustainable / Green Architecture and are earlier adopters of BIM in their green design processes, particularly with regard to delivering radical reductions in energy consumption & carbon emissions.
Elrond Burrell, Associate at Architype, was invited to present a UK perspective on Green BIM at the National Taiwan University in Taipei on 13 February 2014. The BIM meeting was hosted by Prof. Shang-Hsien (Patrick) Hsieh and held in the Civil Engineering Research Building

5. Passive House: 5 Things
It’s all about the numbers & design by
spreadsheet, right?
19. Why Passive House?
Performance gap
‘Eco’ but uncomfortable
A design solution to provide excellent indoor
conditions for people with minimal energy input
20. Wolfgang Feist
I was working as a physicist. I read that the
construction industry had experimented with
adding insulation to new buildings and that energy
consumption had failed to reduce. This
offended me – it was counter to the
basic laws of physics. I knew that they must
be doing something wrong. So I made it my
mission to find out what, and to establish what
was needed to do it right.
21. Passive House Definition
A Passive House is a building, for which thermal comfort
(ISO 7730) can be achieved solely by post-heating or
post-cooling of the fresh air mass, which is required to
achieve sufficient indoor air quality conditions – without the
need for additional recirculation of air.
https://passipedia.org/basics/the_passive_house_-_definition
In plain English: Exceptional comfort & performance by
design, not by adding heating or other technology.
22. The Passive House Standard
Energy Efficiency / Low Carbon
Comfort
Quality Assurance
23. The Passive House Standard
A voluntary international best practice
Performance Standard
Rigorous Design Process
Rigorous Certification Process
24. Meeting the PH Standard
High-performance* continuous unbroken thermal
envelope
High-performance* windows and doors
Thermal bridges eliminated or accounted for
Airtight building envelope
Ventilation system with high-efficiency heat
recovery
