We are taught that retrofit is about risk management, avoiding unintended consequences and the performance gap. So what building performance evaluation techniques are available to us and how do they help us understand our retrofits? We’ll be taking a high-level look at everything from a PAS 2035 basic evaluation through to research grade co-heating measurements, […]

Is it tricky to start using PHPP right after a Passivhaus course? Do you have an advanced problem and no one around to ask for help? Or would you simply like to build a network of PHPP users? This is a teaser for a new series of events. With PHPP shared on screen, participants will […]

In this session, we will explore the complex relationship between building longevity and sustainability. We will examine whether extending the lifespan of buildings is always desirable or feasible, and look at how factors such as loading criteria, climate change, material robustness, and ongoing maintenance requirements affect embodied carbon. Attendees will gain insights into how long-term […]

This webinar is aimed at those who already have either PHribbon or AECB Carbon Calculator software as well as those new to it and interested to see what it can offer.  Many of the advances I will talk about will be new to most of those using either software, including those who have all but […]
