Description

The new edition of The Green Building Bible Volume 2 builds upon the great success of the previous edition. The main focus is still on optimising design and build methods to reduce energy consumption, but it also deals with the related challenges of minimising carbon emissions, so the reader becomes fully informed in the technical aspects of optimising energy efficiency in buildings.

The book has been completely updated and extended with new sections on glazing systems, conservatories, post occupancy evaluation, hydrogen and fuel cells, biomass heating systems, thermal mass, optimum insulation thickness, whole life costing and embodied energy and heat pumps. It offers comprehensive information, in an easily understood, full colour format, with numerous supporting graphic images and useful data that is certain to help anyone interested in protecting the planet and reducing their fuel bills at the same time.

A natural choice for anyone interested in green building, this book gives in-depth technical information and data on the strategies and systems needed to create low energy, green and healthy buildings. With all this information, the book cannot fail to inform and educate professionals and homeowners about the opportunities available for improving the quality of our buildings.
