Description
This session will track the Passivhaus journey on UWEs new 900 bed Student Accommodation project. Upon completion, the project will be the UK's largest Passivhaus residential development.
The session will cover discussions on why Passivhaus was selected, its principles, its effect on design, and its delivery on site. Representatives will present at the session from the UWE team, the design team including QODA and Stride Treglown, and the Principal contractor VINCI Construction UK.
These presentations will give attendees valuable insights into the selection and delivery process for Passivhaus and enable them to make more informed decisions on their projects going forwards.
