Passive House Details: Solutions for High-Performance Design Review: This is a beautifully illustrated book -- the pictures and the text go ... - This is a beautifully illustrated book -- the pictures and the text go together in an elegant and evocative formalism that is extremely helpful and illuminating. I found particularly useful the photos of the construction process -- this is rarely shown in the architectural press and is very important for that reason. This is not just a collection of photos of beautiful buildings - it is much more. The chapters go from foundation to floor to wall to roof to windows and special openings. The 14 case studies demonstrate the construction process. The graphics are very clear - with large scale details. An ideal reference book both for the professional and the student in high performance design. Review: Hands Down; The best. - If you buy one book to help understand the detailing methods used to achieve the passive house standard, this is the one. The details shown are clear, easy to read and large enough to fully understand. They are completely relevant to the North American building sector, which is refreshing in the world of passive house "how to" books. As a practicing licensed Architect, Mechanical Engineer, Adjunct instructor and passive house consultant, I can say that this is hands down the best passive house detailing book that I have seen. I can't wait for the 2nd addition. If you like the detailing books from 475 High Performance Supply, you'll really enjoy this book as well. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #354,884 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #43 in Architecture Project Planning & Management #71 in Sustainability & Green Design #283 in Residential Architecture | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (197) | | Dimensions | 8.75 x 1 x 11 inches | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 1138958263 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1138958265 | | Item Weight | 7.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 332 pages | | Publication date | August 1, 2017 | | Publisher | Routledge | ## Images ![Passive House Details: Solutions for High-Performance Design - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71smFRVme9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a beautifully illustrated book -- the pictures and the text go ... *by E***I on September 24, 2017* This is a beautifully illustrated book -- the pictures and the text go together in an elegant and evocative formalism that is extremely helpful and illuminating.
