Previous posts on the elements that form the building envelope, have shown Intello humidity variable airtightness membranes. The management of the membrane has needed to be considered to position it in the correct place on the inner face of the construction. Once the insulation is all in place, the membrane is taped sealing all joins. Once complete, the building is closed up and a blower-door test is undertaken to ensure the building meets the criteria for airtightness required by Passivehouse standards. Note that all services the penetrate the membrane are taped to ensure airtightness.
The blower door
Previous blower door tests have not quite met the requires air change per hour (ac/h) required to meet the minimum Passive House standard of 0.6ac/h, so a few adjustments are made to address the building envelope. Additional blower tests are done until this is achieved.
A ply panel with seals for the blower fan is fitted into the internal garage door that provides direct access to the house entry foyer .

I see you are using steel battens to create a service cavity and that the screws fixing these are sealed where they have punctured the Intello. Is it possible to use timber battens instead? or would you only recommend your method?
It was planned to use timber battens, however Winstone Wallboards (the supplier of GIB® plasterboard) did not recommend using horizontal battens with horizontally fixed board. The board is fixed horizontally to maximise sheet lengths, and reduce the number of joints that need to be plastered.
The timber battens could have been used vertically, but this would have created potential thermal bridges where they lined up with the studs, typically at the edge of the walls, and at the top and bottom against the top/bottom plates. An alternative solution could have been to cut the vertical timber batten slightly and replace it with a polystyrene packer as support behind the plasterboard, and also move the battens from corners and replace with polystyrene battens.
However, as GIB® Rondo was being used on the ceilings, the decision was made to use GIB® Rondo on the walls also. They can be levelled with lasers and create a very flat finish. The added benefit is that they also create a minimal thermal bridge, being only as large as the thickness of the metal screw.
Thanks for your question.
Interesting, thanks for sharing so much detail of progress!
Fiddly detail around the rondo fixings to get them airtight, and loads of them!
We minimise the potential thermal bridges through studwork by using engineered I-beams for studs (Masonite beams or Steico Joists etc) and having another layer of insulation wrapping around the outside of the studs in some cases. We then use timber battens to create the service void on the inside.
I assume the membrane in continuous behind the partitions in the 3rd and 4th photos?

Hello everyone, I'm Patricia Sherman in Oklahoma USA right now. I would like to share with you my experience of borrowing USD $185,000.00 to clear my bank draft and start a new business. It all started when I lost my house and I took my stuff because of the bank policy and I met some bills and some personal needs. So I became very desperate and started looking for funds in every way. Fortunately for me, a friend of mine, Linda told me about a credit company firm, I was intrigued by the fraud, but I was intrigued by my situation and had no choice but to get advice from my friend about this company. contacting them really doubted me because of my past experience with online lenders, did you know that little? '' Elegantloanfirm@hotmail.com This company has been very helpful to me and my colleague and today, thanks to this credit company, the proud owner of well-organized work and responsibilities, they smiled back at me.

You have good articles here! If anyone here looking for loan @ 2% rate in return to buy home or other financing needs, I want you to contact Mr Benjamin On 247officedept@gmail.com Also On Whats-App + 1-989-394-3740When I was introduced to Mr. Benjamin, I was entering the market as a first time buyer. Naturally,my needs were a bit different and I had loads of questions. Before he sent me my pre-approval letter, he called to speak with me about what it meant and what could change. He made himself available to me at pretty much any hour via email and texts. He was very responsive and knowledgeable. He’s also very straightforward. I explained to him what my expectations were in terms of closing time and other particulars. He said he would meet those expectations but he surpassed them. I closed so quickly my realtor and the seller of course were excited about that. But as a buyer I appreciated being walked through the process of Mr Benjamin loan offer. From pre-approval to closing- the journey was so seamless and I consider myself lucky because I’ve heard horror stories. I recommend him to anyone looking for a loan. Everything was handled electronically expediently and securely
