Minergie yes or no?!

Hey Gibi

Minergie: I can't stand hearing that word anymore. It's just a money-making scheme.

All insulated houses will maybe get an F or even an E. That's why we will soon hear nothing more about this energy certificate for buildings.

Statics: four bricks would be enough to carry the weight of a single-family house.

What bricks..
Your posts are interesting because they are provocative, but quite superficial.
It's about thermal conductivity and storage capacity. Not every brick can do that, so you have to use one that has many air chambers, and that is statically only limited in load-bearing capacity.
I know that because I built such a house myself. Can you leave it at that, or otherwise provide counter-evidence?

All insulated houses will receive xyz.
That is not quite right either.
There are big differences between insulation and insulation.
Which insulation (all? link?) are you referring to?
Timber construction systems nowadays mostly have insulation made of wood. Soft fiber boards, Flumroc or other cellulose insulations, etc.
In log construction, insulation is needed, among other things, to prevent the wind from passing through.
Houses made of straw, also an insulating material.
Hemp, why should hemp not be an ecological insulation material, that makes me curious. Part of the anti-propaganda against hemp?
etc.
Would like to know more precisely if you make specific claims..

CU then :)

Hello Gibi

I mean completely normal bricks BN. Only when we build higher than 4 floors do we need the BH. High-quality brick. Four pieces of the BN would be enough to bear the weight of a single-family house.

But if I were to build a house for myself, there are only small solid bricks. About 12/6/25. And about 50 cm thick exterior walls. (Saves the mason’s back). And due to the high mortar content, it creates a nice crumbly masonry. Resulting in far fewer cracks. And all that built with trass mortar, there is nothing better!! Because the Romans already built with trass, and these buildings still stand today.

Since everyone talks about climate warming, we should have been building like south of the Mediterranean for a long time. So thick walls and small windows.

So we also don’t need insulation. Although there is always a lot of advertising for it. If they insulate with our material they can save 80% energy! (that's what they say) I asked, and wanted a written guarantee for this 80% energy saving. Yes, UNFORTUNATELY there is none??? Why do you think?? If I were to build, always without insulation! But with radiant heating!! :)
