SUMMARY:Wildfire Resilience and Passive House
DESCRIPTION:Part 6 of 9  \nWith the growing occurrence of devastating wildfires\, there’s an imperative to make buildings fire safe and resilient. Passive House can support a clear pathway to achieve these goals. The class will review the latest science on wildfires and building safety\, including the interplay among building structure\, the surrounding landscape\, community\, and the Passive House methodology. We will dive into a toolkit with specific steps for analyzing and implementing fire resilient Passive House strategies for your next building project. \nAgenda: \n\nIntroduction and safety message\nContext of fire weather\, wildfires\, and urban conflagration.\nPriorities for building\, landscape\, and community hardening against wildfire threats\nHow Passive House characteristics can support fire resilience\nOptimization of fire resilience and Passive House goals\nExamples\n\nThe objective of this course is that at the conclusion\, participants will be able to: \n\nOutline the threats that buildings\, property\, and people face due to the growing frequency of wildfires\nDescribe critical weaknesses and failures in site and building design that compromise fire resilience\nOutline attributes\, details\, and quality control aspects of Passive House design and construction that support wildfire resilience\nDescribe code\, landscaping\, and community strategies for strengthening fire resilience and the opportunities for Passive House to be implemented to enhance effectiveness
