Passivhaus

Passivhaus buildings rely on continuous insulation, an unbroken airtight layer and thermal-bridge-free junctions. This section brings together our Passivhaus details by construction type: timber frame (Larsen truss and twin stud), timber I-beam, SIPs, ICF, masonry cavity, masonry with Larsen trusses and solid concrete. For each, there are foundation and floor junctions, walls and corners, windows, intermediate floors, eaves and verges, along with airtightness and wind-tightness details for timber frame. The library holds hundreds of details in total, in CAD, Revit and SketchUp.

Are these details from the Understanding Passivhaus book? The library includes details from Understanding Passivhaus, plus others drawn since, such as the twin stud timber frame set.

Are these details Passivhaus certified? No. They show approaches used on Passivhaus projects, but certification depends on the whole building, its PHPP modelling and the products used.

Which file formats can I download? Pro members get DWG, Revit, SketchUp, PDF. Lite members get DWG.
