Basic principles
- Characteristics of different energy standards (passive house, efficiency house,
low-energy building, energy self-sufficient building, plus houses, etc.)
- Residential and non-residential buildings (single/multi-zone models)
- Requirements for the building envelope and building services
- Design criteria for energy-efficient sustainable buildings
- Treatment of thermal bridges and their mathematical consideration
- Legislation and subsidies
Building construction
- Thermal bridge-free construction
- Use of passive house components
- Energy-efficient building envelope in general
Homework: Passive house project planning
- Development of a passive house
- Application of the Passive House Planning Package (PHPP)
- Consideration of thermal bridges
- Use of passive house components
- Comparison with other energy standards
