Session 6: Ecological construction materials
Saturday, 11 September 2021
The passive house standard contributes to environmental protection with its extremely low heating energy requirements - in addition, the building materials used in the projects can be evaluated and balanced. This balance of grey energy is influenced by the type of building material as well as other factors such as its durability or the origin of the material. The speakers in this session will explore areas of expertise such as building with wood as a renewable resource, life cycle assessments of the materials used and approaches to successfully recycle them.
