The structure has a core of high density insulation with reinforced concrete skins to create a strong, durable composite shell. Every part of the building contributes to it’s strength and stability. Finite element analysis of the structure ensures that the design is highly efficient and economical.
- High performance – Highly insulated construction reduces heating and cooling loads to minimise cost.
- Build to PassivHaus standard
- Economical – Fast build using two main components – Low energy bills
- Robust, durable and strong
- Comfortable and airtight – No cold bridging or draughts
- Efficient build process – Simple construction process
- Local availability of materials – Reduces the need for transport and associated costs
The insulated core is erected, the services are installed and the reinforced concrete skins are then applied to form a highly efficient shell structure.
Construct the insulating core
Spray the fibre reinforced concrete onto both sides of the core
