Multifamily Passive House Design (presented by PG&E)

Passive House delivers healthy, quiet, and comfortable homes in durable buildings. Passive House also provides a baseline on which teams can craft resilient buildings capable of sheltering residents from storms and heat waves to come. In this course, we’ll cover a range of issues that go into planning, designing, and constructing affordable Passive House multifamily buildings.  It’s a comprehensive overview, diving into key details, and demystifying the strategies for success.

Agenda:

  • Multifamily milestones
  • Critical early design considerations
  • Ventilation and ventilation systems
  • Cooling, shading, comfort, and optimization
  • Enclosure assemblies
  • Heat pumps and space conditioning strategies
  • Domestic hot water
  • Certification process
  • Q&A

The objective of this course is that at the conclusion, participants will be able to:

  • Outline common pitfalls in designing Passive House multifamily buildings
  • Describe critical pathways, processes, and milestones in Passive House multifamily optimization
  • Outline critical, multifamily components and systems and the sequence of consideration and integration
  • Describe how well-established strategies are evolving and being successfully scaled
