Sustainable Construction:  Moving On Up ....

The Eden Conference took place on 5 November 2007 at the Eden Project, Cornwall.

The conference paired speakers to make joint presentations as architect/engineer and owner/user discussing the successes and challenges of some very interesting case studies.

Using extensive post-occupancy data, the speakers discussed whether the sustainable projects they have been involved with are performing as expected and where they are not, what can be done to improve performance.

Delegates heard very honest accounts of successful and, in some cases, not so successful applications of sustainable measures installed in the example buildings such as renewable energy technologies and the value of post-occupancy information. Feedback from the day was entirely positive with most people expressing their amazement that such frank information had been shared by the speakers.

Presentations are now available, however unfortunately we were unable to convert Craig White/Miles Ford's presentation due to compatibility issues.

We would ask you to please respect the copyright of the creators of the presentations and if you wish to use or replicate any of their data or images please ensure you credit both the speaker and the conference.
