The needs for a building in energy of heating depend on the degree on thermo isolation on its envelope, of its air tightness, the needs for ventilation and its opening to the solar contributions, all parameters which the architect must control to optimize his project. This assessment can be visualized graphically on an abacus, and that simultaneously with the risk of overheating in summer. Paper thus locates the stakes continued by the step of the passive house, in general: to minimize the losses by the envelope, to manage the needs for ventilation and to maximize the solar contributions do not prevent from avoiding the overheating of summer. Passive house JOHANNS built in Kettenis (Eupen) by the architect Leo MICHAËLIS is then presented: project, building site and heat balance. [less ▲]
