Greengauge Building Energy Consultants

Thank you very much to our speakers at the UKCMB webinar on moisture management in buildings last Friday 28th March 2025: Dr Valentina Marincioni UCL Institute for Environmental Design and Engineering (UKCMB Technical Director) and Toby Cambray (UKCMB affiliate), and Dr Hector Altamirano-Medina (UKCMB Academic Director) for chairing the session. Thank you so much to those who took the time to take part in the webinar and engage with us on this very important topic! There was a lot of interest in this webinar, and we had to cap numbers to make the questions manageable, but do not worry as we are planning to host a second one soon. The UKCMB team

While it's important not to be overwhelmed by the minor details, smashing the small stuff can significantly shape the success of the big! Great site visit to South West Fife High School. Can't fault the attention to detail that is going into the realisation of this project. The distinctive red airtightness membrane and window taping is taking shape beautifully, like a school sized Rothko. Such a neat install for a component that is getting covered over - true workmanship on display. The Insulation packed capping off of the thermal breaks to facilitate the roof install is another small master stroke. Hats off to BAM UK & Ireland, AHR, and Fife Council for their collaborative efforts and commitment to excellence. Impressive to see how each element is coming together to create what will be an outstanding educational facility for the community. Looking forward to the continued progress on this exciting project Greengauge Building Energy Consultants! #Passivhaus #School #Education #Passivhausdesigners #Certification
