Product Description
This publication of passive solar projects built in the United States has been prepared to document the state of the art in passive solar design. Passive solar heating and cooling can provide a major percentage of the buildings' energy requirement, while at the same time representing a heightened level of involvement for the architect in the design stages of the building. The full potential of this passive conditioning depends on a sensitive awareness of the relationship between climate, comfort, and the thermal characteristics of buildings and building materials.

Passive solar systems are often misunderstood and vaguely defined. Many of the approaches to passive solar heating and cooling are at rudimentary stages, with little performance data and evaluation, few modeling techniques, and minimal published information. Yet for the building designer and the occupant, these concepts have major implications in the design and use of buildings. The purpose of this publication is to offer a working definition and a basic understanding of a number of existing applications of passive solar designs. Methods of passive solar design are not presented in this publication; nor are rules of thumb or passive solar assemblies and components. These subjects will be addressed in later publications. A reference bibliography has been included to assist the reader who desires more information and to stimulate additional individual research and testing. Passive design techniques can be integrated in an additive fashion in more typical buildings –but this challenge for now, is left to the reader. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Few people intentionally consider durability when designing a home, but rather rely on experience and market acceptance to make design decisions. This approach to design works best in a stable housing market where architectural preferences and material choices do not change or change very slowly.The housing market, however, tends to be dynamic rather than stable and new materials and preferences influence the market continuously, sometimes in dramatic ways. This dynamic condition also places a responsibility on designers and builders to properly apply their experiences, which are often based on older construction methods and materials, to new materials and design conditions.As a result, it is important to understand why certain practices have been effective (or ineffective) in the past so that they can be properly interpreted and considered in the design and construction of modern homes. Durability by Design: A Guide for Residential Builders and Designers is intended to raise the awareness and understanding of building durability as a design consideration in housing.The Guide covers basic concepts of durability and presents recommended practices-including numerous construction details and design data- for matters such as moisture management, ultraviolet (UV) protection, insects, decay, corrosion, and natural hazards. Some attention is also given to matters that may be considered serviceability issues related to normal wear-and-tear, aesthetics, or functions not immediately associated with durability. The contents of this Guide will help to preserve and promote "tried-and-true" practices and concepts related to housing durability, and present them in a manner that can be used to cost-effectively design the durable homes of the future. ...

Product Description
A multitude of design strategies are available to achieve energy-efficient windows.Opportunities for improving window performance fall into six groups: site, exterior appendages, frame, glazing, interior accessories, and building interior.Design strategies within these groups can improve one or more of the six energy functions of windows: solar heating, daylighting, shading, insulation, air tightness, and ventilation.Included in this report are 33 strategies; an explanation of the physical phenomena responsible for each strategy's energy performance, summarized energy and non-energy advantages and disadvantages; aesthetic considerations; cost approximations; example installations, laboratory studies, or calculations by the authors; and references.Intended readers include professional designers, lessees and owners of commercial space, home buyers and owners, window component manufacturers, and researchers.The report's purpose is to draw attention to the wide range of options currently available to conserve energy with windows. ...

From the supplier: The American Family Mutual Insurance Co redlining case settlement should make homeowner insurers acutely aware of US Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) standards regarding minority and inner-city coverage. Insurers should not expect that a Republican Congress will relieve them of the standards of conduct established by the American Family case settlement. The Republican 'Contract with America' promises to halt further government regulation, but HUD intends to remain vigilant regarding insurer redlining practices.

From the supplier: A 'HUD software' is a computer program used in subsidized property management. The program prepares paperwork required by the Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) or by other government bodies. Among the forms it can generate are the basic 50059, HAP Requests, Excess Income Reports, FmHA forms, HUD 50058 and Special Claims forms. Apart from handling paperwork, the software can be used for a wide variety of tasks that include dealing with unpaid rent and damages, vacancy and move-ins and outs, subsidy type changes, and incomplete certifications, expenses and assets. It should be noted that HUD programs are marketed by private vendors and are not certified by the department. The decision to select HUD programs should be made after examining their functionalities and their mechanical/structural/operational aspects. A directory of HUD/subsidized software vendors is provided.
