Description

This is a new CD-ROM edition of the popular and acclaimedpractical guide on how to realise a ZED (Zero Energy Development) - with sets of Housing Corporation accredited standard house types, an inventory of the ZED products used to build them, and exemplar case studies applying the principles to real sites.It describes the 'tools' to make the process quicker and easier, such as ZED estimator which predicts the likely cost of a development and defines how much to pay for a site to achieve a target profit return. The principles behind ZEDs are also described, by means of a journey through the three main phases of a typical medium to large-scale project - feasibility; the planning process and detailed design; and the construction process.

'From A to ZED' takes away the excuses for non-green development and offers solutions to the building team and their clients. Together, the principles and the toolkit described in this book should make it just as easy to realise a ZED as any conventional development.

It will also appeal to all those involved in green specification and development including: architects, housing corporations, planning authorities and manufacturers.
