Description

With decades of research into thermal insulation, structural strength, internal moisture and related topics, BRANZ is well placed to give practical advice about some recent questions we’ve heard around h1 compliance.

There is nothing revolutionary in the building materials and techniques required to comply with the new Acceptable Solutions and Verification Methods for Building Code clause H1 Energy efficiency. Houses have been designed, consented and constructed this way in Aotearoa New Zealand for years. What is different is that the materials and techniques are being brought fully into mainstream construction.

Scope

This article includes:

  • Key principles to follow
  • Choose the right compliance pathway
  • Choose the right framing options
  • Choose the right building materials and elements
  • Find the right information
  • What’s not in the new H1 documents
  • The gains are worth it
