There is a large knowledge base of how to build durable residential buildings that meet the Passive House standard.
However, there are few examples of commercial buildings meeting Passive House.
This presentation will help bridge the knowledge gap between residential and commercial Passive House construction.

• Intermediate floor – higher levels of insulation, flashing, and how insulation in the stud cavity impacts 2D versus 3D flow assumptions.
• Base of wall – thermal break and higher levels of insulation
• Balcony – intermittent supported.
