Hello everyone, I am planning the construction of a 5-family house. Since the plot is very narrow but long, the planned house will be 20.415m long but only 7.24m wide, these are the maximum possible dimensions approved by the building authority. The house will have two full floors as well as a 45° gable roof. The gables will have a southwest / northeast orientation. The exterior walls will be a two-shell masonry with a thickness of 49cm, structure 17.5 Ytong, 12cm PUR insulation 0.24 air layer and 11.5cm facing brickwork. No basement. All technical values correspond to the specifications of a KfW55 house, ground source heat pump, underfloor heating, decentralized ventilation systems, photovoltaic system including storage, etc... Nevertheless, according to the calculation by my energy consultant, the house only achieves the KfW55 standard due to the unfavorable length-to-width ratio and she has reached the limits of her expertise. Is this a calculation error or actually not possible? I am really despairing over this...
