This workshop provides a thorough review of the issues and guidance on practical approaches to low-carbon detailing. We will review the proposed requirements of Building Regulations Approved Document L1A (2010) and explore heat losses (fabric losses, thermal bridging losses, and infiltration and ventilation losses) and how they are calculated. The Accredited and Enhanced Construction Details are reviewed, and strategies for delivering better performing details are explained. The workshop includes practical exercises including the calculation of U values, Ψ values and y values. |
