John Street Affordable Housing

---

70 affordable homes across 3 blocks developed to the Passivhaus standard. The scheme will provide high levels of thermal comfort and low energy bills for residents.

Our Role: Passivhaus Consultants RIBA Stages 3-7

John Street comprises of 3 blocks; an 11 storey apartment block; a terrace of town houses and a 4-storey apartment block. The larger building is concrete frame with light gauge steel (SFS) infill while the smaller buildings, which require full fill insulation cavities to meet Passivhaus, are concrete frame with masonry infill.

Delta Q have worked alongside the design team to help develop the architectural and MEP design to achieve Passivhaus. In addition, we are working with the Higgins site team and sub-contractors benchmarking installation of below ground insulation and supporting systems for evidence collection and recording.
