Project's name: ENERGETIC EFFICIENCY IN BUILDING CONSTRUCTION. PASSIVHAUS CONSTRUCTION. Most of our lives are spent in buildings, whether at home, at work or in other activities. We use more energy in buildings than in any other activity, as it is necessary to maintain the quality of life and perform the operations and maintenance of the building. Heating, air conditioning, lighting, appliances, sound equipment, etc. The residential and tertiary sectors, consisting essentially of dwellings and buildings, use approximately 40% of the final energy of the European Union being in the year 2005 of 437 Mtoe. And are responsible for producing high amounts of CO2, one of the so-called " Greenhouse gases ", so it is necessary to reduce energy consumption, with the consequent saving of raw materials, respect for the environment and economic savings. Directive 2002/91 / EC, as regards energy certification, this Directive and Directive 2010/31 / EU of 19 May, on the energy performance of buildings, this European Directive seeks to improve energy efficiency Of the buildings. The upside is that the housing and building complex offers the greatest potential to save energy, which will reduce the negative impact on the environment. The potential savings have been estimated at 28% and will be achieved mainly through the reform of buildings and facilities that use energy. Also improving daily behavior in the consumer-building relationship. The climate change we are seeing is due to irresponsible energy consumption. In our houses and in the buildings (blocks of houses, schools, offices, etc.). There is no secret formula to save energy, but small gestures of many are the good way to make better use of resources. The efficient use of heating and hot water, lighting, appliances, etc., are concrete actions that Lead to energy savings and thus to economic savings. Also the knowledge of new materials and construction processes, used in different EU countries, in a thriving sector such as sustainable building will allow students to acquire competences that will facilitate their insertion in the labor market as well as the improvement of their professional training . Since each country has different climatic characteristics, different regulatory regulations, different processes and materials are used to achieve the same goal of reducing energy consumption in homes. Anyway the learning that will be acquired by students and teachers from different countries will be especially enriching since they will know materials that are not used in their countries, different construction processes, different design facilities, so that new knowledge can be applied in each One of the participating countries. The knowledge of these materials and constructive processes will allow teachers from different countries to include new approaches in their post-project courses, that will be enriching for students who study these teachings and, therefore, improve their employability and their terminal capacities. In addition to making known to other sectors related to the sector (builders, technicians, associations, professional colleges, etc.). The fact of being in contact with teachers of other countries allows to know the different formative systems existing in those countries and to be able to draw conclusions to apply them in the own country. The construction of buildings with the Passivhaus certificate requires a high quality construction to minimize the energy consumption for which a high qualification of the workers is necessary. Therefore, knowledge of the right building materials and systems will allow students to work in a booming sector that requires highly trained staff, as well as to achieve optimal energy efficiency throughout the EU. The Objetive Project is: - Compare efficient housing construction systems in each country. - Compare the systems for the use of renewable energy and natural resources in each country (water, electricity ...) - Generate a database of constructive details. - Increase knowledge of the materials used to improve energy efficiency. - Improve knowledge of the construction processes to be used to improve energy efficiency. -To train students in a profession with a future and a boom. and above all: -To educate society in general about the importance of energy saving, as a unique path in the sustainability of the planet.
Virtually 100% of the 0bjectives pursued in the application have been developed as follows: 1) In each meeting country the first meetings were aimed at the visit of each educational center, its customs, facilities and later we met in a classroom for the host country to explain the rules of each country in relation to the FP The positive aspects of each system. 2) Know the existing legislation in the EU and in each country on efficient building. The students have known through the first meeting of all the participants in Spain the existing legislation in the EU and in each country on efficient building, for this it is established papers from each of the participating countries supported by their teachers where it is explained the Regulations of each Country to the rest of the participants. The Rosaleda took place in an IES classroom on March 5, 2018, as set out in the document "schedules and activities in Spain". There was also an extension of this knowledge in the activities of the institute of secondary education VTI Brugge, in Belgium on June 7, where the Legislation was complemented and extended in each Country, explained by the students of each center. 3) Know the elements that participate in an energy efficiency in the building and the benefits that this produces on society Since the beginning of the Project in September 2018 and throughout its two-year duration, the faculty of each center has explained to the students participating in the Project "the elements that participate in an energy efficiency in the building and the benefits that this Produce about society ”, through lectures, visits and presentations. This topic has been addressed mostly in the day to day of the students in class. 4) Know how to take advantage of renewable energy, depending on the local climate, to increase energy self-sufficiency. For the design of an efficient house, students were explained how to take advantage of renewable energy, depending on the local climate. This was carried out in Spain at the meeting on March 5, 2018 at the point of the agenda: “ Exposition of "Traditional construction in our country" from the different countries ”. 5) Know the appropriate materials, according to different types of weather, to build efficiently from an energy point of view. In the preparation of the Project students have investigated in their area what materials are suitable, according to different types of weather, to build efficiently from an energy point of view. In Spain, cork was chosen as a thermal insulator, brick as a structural element, green roof as an ecological solution and materials, in other countries wood as an enclosure and mineral wool as an insulator. These subjects were studied in the normal classes of the most related subjects with the collaboration of other professors of the corresponding Department of each Center, as well as the considerable collaboration of professors of the University of the different participating countries. Malaga University. Mr. Alberto García Marín (architect and professor from the University of Málaga) University of Bruges Dr ir Hilde Breesch. Passive cooling of homes. Visit to the Department of “Sustainable Materials” of the University of Stuttgart Prof.Dr. Garrecht 6) Know the Passivhaus certification and requirements to obtain it. This issue of Passive house Certification and its construction parameters was addressed during the Project in several meetings: In Spain: On March 8, 2018, all the members of the Project of the participating countries attended a talk about the concept of “Passive house Certification” and we visited a house with said certification. This matter was planned on the order of March 8 “Visit to the first efficient house in" Costa del Sol ". Lecture on energy efficency by the architect Mrs. Katrin Falck Szenessy. 7) Know how to design and build according to the Passivhaus Certification and Activities parameters. The students learned in this talk how it is built according to the Passivhaus Certification parameters. In Spain: On March 9 in Spain: Talk by the prestigious German architect Mr. Alexander Lange: Lecture on energy efficiency by the German architect. In Belgium: on June 7, 2018 in the talk: “Sustanaible buildings design from ingenium Brugge in KuLeuven Campus Brugge (KUlab) planned on the agenda of activities in that Country. In Germany: Visit to a building designed under passive house standards, explanations about the construction of this building, as it was on the agenda of activities in this Country. “Visit of the" Technical Town Hall " 8) Design for each country of an efficient house according to its climate. 9) Design of a Project web page. https://casaeficiente.wixsite.com/misitio
