To read for all those who have a project in mind before contacting professionals given the margoulins and shenanigans in the field in France currently (thanks to the 1€ insulation).
Intro:
The intervention of designers is essential because it is their responsibility to integrate the performances to be achieved, from the initial stages of the design process. These performances should not, however, hamper their creativity; on the contrary, it is a question of constructing buildings combining
beauty, comfort, durability and economy.
Aware of the importance of the information to be provided to professionals on the one hand and to the public on the other, Wallonia has set up, for several years, a multifaceted information and training system, relaying the research carried out by the Scientific Center and
Construction Technology and Universities.
A series of 9 practical guides for architects explored the envelope design methodology. Its authors, Francy Simon, Professor Emeritus at the Catholic University of Louvain, and Jean-Marie Hauglustaine, lecturer at the University of Liège, continue here
this approach for the thermal insulation of roofs (sloped and flat), offering a coherent approach, from the sketch to the project.
In this guide, the architect will find an integrated conceptual approach allowing him to guide and adapt his choices.
Other guides are distributed by the Construction Professional Training Fund, while individuals can find brochures and advice that go in the same direction, from the Guichets Energie Wallonie.
These achievements are part of the policy that Wallonia has been pursuing for several years to promote the Rational Use of Energy (URE) in buildings. Belgium has in fact committed, in Rio, in Kyoto then in Paris, to reduce energy consumption and therefore CO2 emissions, in order to reduce the greenhouse effect.
