  • Building Science Deconstructed is a weekly discussion series by Dörken Systems Inc. featuring some of the industry's most sought-after building science experts. In this episode of A Cup of Joe, Dr. Joe Lstiburek is joined by Betsy Pettit to share lessons learned from net zero building projects.
    About Lstiburek:
    Dr. Joe Lstiburek is the founding principal of Building Science Corporation, one of the most influential, innovative, and respected building science firms in North America. Dr. Lstiburek’s work ranges widely, from providing expert witness testimony to overseeing research and development projects, to writing for the ASHRAE Journal. His commitment to advancing the building industry has had a lasting impact on building codes and practices throughout the world, particularly in the areas of air barriers, vapor barriers, and vented and unvented roof assemblies. His commitment to education earned him the hailing, "the dean of North American building science" by the Wall Street Journal. Dr. Lstiburek holds a Bachelor of Applied Science in Mechanical Engineering, a Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering, and a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Building Science.

    Can anyone comment as to what Net Zero Energy R-Factors would be for climate zone 2 would be?

      Thanks for the question. Our best resource is the DELTA®-VENT SA Technical Guide for Continuous Insulation, in particular the section on Thermal Control beginning on page 8. bit.ly/32Ba9Kc

    Yeah but you could do much better with PV Thermal panels, HRV with integrated heat pump and dryer with integrated heat pump

      Each of those are viable choices and should be used in conjunction with an air-tight assembly.

      @@coselladorken this is the point . They are trying to improve outdated technologies about which they learn in school half century ago or so. Now we can make a passive house with Thermasteel panels wich outperform wood stick construction method by a lot and even save money on a foundation if put panels up on a footing. If you have a degree in engineering it doesn't mean you have to invent a wheel all over again

      @@andreycham4797 We agree. There are many new technologies to make the overall building systems much more energy efficient without re-inventing the wheel. Construction industry is not known to be an early adopter of new technology.”
