Book excerpt: Our dependence on fossil fuels is at an all-time high and for economic and environmental reasons it is vitally important that we save energy and reduce our carbon footprint. This book is essential reading for all those homeowners who wish to insulate their properties effectively in order to save energy, permanently reduce fuel bills and increase the comfort of their homes.

In this book, the author: demonstrates the opportunities for real financial savings that insulation can provide year on year; emphasizes why insulation is such a good idea and discusses the main areas of the house that lose heat, concentrating on the building fabric; describes the tools, special clothing, materials and techniques that are required for DIY house insulation; explains why refurbishments, repairs or extensions all offer the opportunity to introduce insulation into your home; examines the Building Regulations, which set the quality, best practice and safety standards for home improvements and construction work; reviews the range of insulation materials that can be used, from natural substances such as hemp and sheep's wool, to mineral insulation such as glass wool, polystyrene and phenolic foam; considers the DIY opportunities to reduce the heat lost through external walls and through floors and roofs; demonstrates how heat is lost through draughts and ventilation and suggests some DIY jobs to minimize this; discusses energy-efficient glazing and potential savings by installing double and triple, gas-filled, high-efficiency glazing systems.

Download or read book Fire Hazards of Exterior Wall Assemblies Containing Combustible Components written by Nathan White and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SpringerBrief presents strategies for fire mitigation based on combustible assembly systems of exterior walls. Providing background information on common exterior wall systems, the mechanisms of fire spread, and case studies, it examines the difficulties in controlling a fire with several materials and assembly methods. The brief compiles information on typical fire scenarios which involve the exterior wall, along with further exploration into test methods, approval and regulatory requirements for the various assembly systems. Offering testing approaches for possible mitigation strategies, the brief takes into account that current commercial wall assembly systems are constructed to improve energy performance, reduce water and air infiltration, and allow for aesthetic design flexibility. Exterior Insulation Finish Systems, metal composite claddings, high-pressure laminates, and weather-resistive barrier systems all have components which directly impact the fire hazard. Recommendations for future exterior wall construction are based on identified knowledge gaps.

Download or read book Residential Property Appraisal written by Phil Parnham and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Residential Property Appraisal, Volumes 1 and 2, are handbooks not only for students studying residential surveying but also for those involved in the appraisal of residential property. Volume 1 has been updated and covers the valuation process as it relates to residential properties, particularly when valuation is undertaken for secured lending purposes. It addresses the basic skills required, the risks posed in a valuation, the key drivers of value, emerging issues that impact valuation and the key legal and RICS regulatory considerations that a valuer needs to understand. Volume 2 of the series goes on to consider the practical aspects of the survey and inspection of residential properties in more detail. Not only does this include updated sections on the most common defects (for example, building movement, moisture problems, wood rot and wood-boring insects), it also covers emerging challenges, including assessing personal safety hazards, modern construction technologies and materials and invasive plants. The volume also takes account of the Home Survey Standard recently published by the RICS and the changes resulting from climate change, the energy crisis and concerns about fire safety. Building services in domestic residential properties is another area of rapid change, especially with the development of low-carbon and renewable technologies. To ensure that this aspect is covered in sufficient detail, the content is to be included in Volume 3: Assessing Building Services. An essential book for students studying to enter the residential survey and valuation profession and for existing practitioners who wish to improve their knowledge of current practices.
