Evaluation of a modular construction system in accordance with the Passivhaus standard for components

open access: yesJournal of Building Engineering, 2023
[Abstract] Passivhaus is an energy performance standard for buildings that has been deeply analyzed in the current scientific literature. However, the study of the Passivhaus standard for components and the use of certified components in the construction of new nearly-zero energy buildings have not been thoroughly discussed.

Refurbishing an Existing Apartment Block in Mediterranean Climate: Towards the Passivhaus Standard [PDF]

open access: yesEnergy Procedia, 2017
The Passivhaus standard, although widely appreciated in cold regions, is seldom regarded as a reference in the energy renovation of existing buildings in warm countries. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of a series of strategies for the energy refurbishment of an existing apartment block in Southern Italy, based on dynamic energy simulations. The

Performance gap in a multi-storey student accommodation complex built to Passivhaus standard

Building and Environment, 2021
Abstract Although the Passivhaus design is rapidly spreading worldwide, limited studies have examined its actual performance during operation. This study used Australia's first student accommodation built to the Passivhaus standard as a case study to assess the gaps between design prediction and in situ performance.

Active to be passive A reasoned development of the Passivhaus standard for two different climates

Third International Conference on Advances In Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering- ACSEE 2015, 2015
In the era of “everything at once” the main objective seems to look for a standard, an adaptable prototype compliant with requirements on each situation. The architectural designing process has been affected by this phenomenon too, with the purpose of reaching the new european guidelines of high energy-efficient buildings, reducing energetic ...

Passive house optimization for Southern Italy based on the “New Passivhaus Standard”

2009
The IEE Passive-On project has drafted a proposal to adapt that Standard to the conditions that characterize Southern Europe, which is described in this paper together with its rationale. Compared with the original definition, one of the main changes is the introduction of explicit requirements on internal comfort during summer, in parallel to a limit ...
