  • The Art of Natural Building — Revised and Updated
    Praise for The Art of Natural Building — Revised and Updated The Art of Natural Building — Second Edition is an epic adventure through the world of natural building. No stone is left unturned in presenting the beauty, inclusiveness, human, socially and environmentally responsible world of building with what the earth gives us, where we are. As a whole, it’s a bit overwhelming — so much to take in — and yet each subject is complete within itself. The spirit of this book is attuned to its subject — gentle, simple, embracing, humble, caring, and infused with love for each other, our communities, and the earth. It’s really about creating a humane world, a beacon to guide us through difficult times. — Bill Hutchins, founder/principal, Helicon Works Architects This is a book to live your life by — to improve your life in every aspect. No single problem is overlooked, from global warming to the imbalance of wealth and poverty. [This book] draws from a variety of tried-and-true methods while bringing us into today’s world — anyone, anywhere can build an affordable home from the practical details in this volume. — Marion Bridge, author, Passion for Earth: Earth Houses in New Zealand This is a well-illustrated and comprehensive, wide-ranging book on many methods and aspects of natural building, drawing on materials from many parts of the world and written by prominent practitioners and proponents. It will be 2 much anticipated by those who are either keen to promote natural building, or who are simply wishing to find out a whole lot more about it, what it means, and to see a whole range of examples.

  • Innovation in Sustainable Solar-Powered Net-Zero Energy Solar Decathlon Houses: a Review and Showcase
    buildings Article Innovation in Sustainable Solar-Powered Net-Zero Energy Solar Decathlon Houses: A Review and Showcase Yeganeh Baghi 1,*, Zhenjun Ma 1 , Duane Robinson 2 and Tillmann Boehme 3 1 Sustainable Buildings Research Centre, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, NSW 2522, Australia; [email protected] 2 Australian Power Quality & Reliability Centre, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, NSW 2522, Australia; [email protected] 3 Sydney Business School, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, NSW 2522, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +61-2-4221-8111 Abstract: Solar Decathlon is a showcase of cutting-edge residential buildings containing innovative solutions and technologies. This study reviewed, identified, and categorized technological innova- tions from past Solar Decathlon competitions. The review was based on publicly available data of the top five houses from each U.S. and international Solar Decathlon competition. The most prolific innovations identified were from building services systems and architectural design and construction. It was observed that most innovations within building services systems were in heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning, and home automation, while architectural design and construction innova- tions focused on building adaptability, façade, structure, and building materials. It was found that although there is no fixed relationship between the numbers of innovations in the houses and their overall competition points, there is a high probability for an innovative house to be placed within the top five houses. This study also provides information about technological innovations within Solar Decathlon houses and offers an innovation classification scheme to guide Solar Decathletes to Citation: Baghi, Y.; Ma, Z.; Robinson, understand what innovations could be implemented in their future entries.

  • Solar Decathlon Website: English to Chinese Translation a Major Qualifying Project Report (Professional Writing)
    Solar Decathlon Website: English to Chinese Translation A Major Qualifying Project Report (Professional Writing) Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science Submitted By Yunqiu Sun 05/30/13 Advisors: Professor Lorraine Higgins Professor Jennifer Rudolph P a g e | 2 Abstract WPI is part of a team competing in Solar Decathlon China. For its Communications Contest, our team is generating a website, brochure, and signage to engage the audience in learning about the house we designed, “Solatrium”, and get inspired from our Solar Decathlon experience. This MQP incorporates an English to Chinese translation of the website, brochure, signage, video walkthrough, and dinner menu. It also provides information on the house design, the target audience for the Chinese website, and experts’ advice on translation. I compared my actual translation challenges and strategies to those proposed by literature. I conclude translation is not just about literal translation or reproducing sources into another language. It is also about making persuasive and culturally appropriate adaptations to attract the audience through their interests. This project reflects language and cultural differences through the experience of translation. P a g e | 3 Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge the support of Professor Lorraine Higgins and Professor Jennifer Rudolph who provided helpful comments and encouragement throughout this project, and Professor Xin Xin who proofread

  • Advocating for Net-Zero Energy Sustainable Houses Through the International Solar Decathlon Competition
    Proceedings of the 3rd World Congress on Civil, Structural, and Environmental Engineering (CSEE'18) Budapest, Hungary – April 8 - 10, 2018 DOI: 10.11159/icsenm18.1 Advocating for Net-Zero Energy Sustainable Houses through the International Solar Decathlon Competition Timothy J McCarthy, Brendan J Banfield, Yeganeh Baghi, Luca Faidutti, Clayton McDowell University of Wollongong NSW Australia Abstract - The US Department of Energy has been running the Solar Decathlon since 2000. This contest challenges teams of university students to design, build and operate a solar powered net-zero energy house. The contests are held in the US and at locations around the world. Transporting the house to the contest location is a major challenge for the teams. The University of Wollongong became the first Australian team to enter the Solar Decathlon when it’s house was constructed at Datong, China for the SD China 2013 competition. Team UOW won that competition against 18 other universities from around the world. The university will be in the final of the Solar Decathlon Middle East 2018 to be held in Dubai in October/November of that year. The new house, named Desert Rose, is a net-zero energy, dementia friendly eco house designed for the harsh Gulf climate. This paper will summarise the history of the 16 Solar Decathlon contests to date. The impact of the competition on the 235 international teams will be examined to demonstrate how the Solar Decathlon is a vehicle for educating engineers, architects and universities about sustainable and net-zero energy buildings. Case studies, including Team UOW’s winning entry to SD China 2013 will examine the value of such a large educational initiative from multiple perspectives.

  • Decentralized Solar Decathlon
    Control Number: 1371-1519 Decentralized Solar Decathlon Control Number: 1371-1519 Applicant: Consortium for a Decentralized Solar Decathlon (CDSD) https://livetozero.com/decentralized-solar-decathlon/ Technical and Business Point of Contact: Mike Wassmer President, Live to Zero LLC Boulder, CO 80303 +1 (303) 638-2450 [email protected] https://livetozero.com Page 1 of 20 Control Number: 1371-1519 PROJECT OVERVIEW The Consortium for a Decentralized Solar Decathlon (CDSD) will substantially increase the depth and breadth of the Solar Decathlon program’s impact by hosting a yearlong competition in 20 campus communities across the country. Decentralization will renew the program’s long-term fiscal sustainability and growth potential by reducing administrative costs by 75% and creating exciting new sponsorship opportunities. The Concept In the decentralized Solar Decathlon, twenty collegiate teams design, build, operate, and present permanent zero energy homes on or near their respective campuses. The competition will remain an exciting challenge in which students challenge the status quo and present innovative solutions for the future. The houses will be open to the public for longer than in previous Solar Decathlons and are expected to host more visitors in total. Visitors will be more engaged and more likely to take action after visiting. The Decathletes will be empowered to spend more time on research, while still enjoying all of the benefits of a design-build competition. The event will retain its collegiate spirit by including contests focusing on local communication and education while also enabling competing students to learn from each other. The following chronological list of project phases and milestones describes the proposed high- level operational details of the decentralized competition: • During the design development phase, the program administrator publishes the Rules document and prepares for the construction and competition phases while the teams work on the design and documentation of their homes.
