Introduction

This booklet contains the technical details regard-ing the Earth-Ship Based Home design. Part A of this booklet includes the plans and sections of the design, in which the elaborated details from part B are designated. The technical details are divided in vertical and horizontal details. V01 means ver-tical detail 01 and H02 means horizontal detail 02To make clear where each detail is located in the design, a three dimensional impression on each page shows where the related element is sec-tioned. The thermal resistance performance per element is given in each detail. All elements (except for windows) meet the minimum required thermal resistance of 5.0 m2.k/W.The details cannot be compared with standard details. This due to the used materials, especially the Compressed Earth Blocks. It is a fragile mate-rial in case of attaching elements to. This can also be seen in the drawn details.

Additional notes

- The water drain is needed to discharge water which is collected on the horizontal glass. The drain must be checked from time to time for blockages due to leaves for example. - Water drain in window frame is equipped with aluminum bottom to prevent the rot of wood. - Hydrophobization of finishing materials must be done each three years and must be done on a dry surface.- The window frames need to be finished with a white coloured damp open paint. - Terracotta panels in this detail are unglazed. - It is important to protect the Compressed Earth Blocks from any form of precipitation during construction.

Additional notes

- Wooden tongue and groove boards (larchwood) are exposed to climatic conditions and need to be pickled. - It is important to protect the Compressed Earth Blocks from any form of precipitation during construction.- By means of appendix G from the booklet ‘Master thesis’, it is assumed that the wooden battens do not fall out of the wall due to shrinkage and expansion of both the Compressed Earth Blocks as the pinewood itself. It is important though how the battens are pressed in the wall structure.

- Hydrophobization of finishing materials must be done each three years and must be done on a dry surface.- The window frames need to be finished with a white coloured damp open paint. - Terracotta panels in this detail are unglazed. - It is important to protect the Compressed Earth Blocks from any form of precipitation during construction.- Wooden framework must be connected to the Compressed Earth Blocks wall by means of steel anchors.

Additional notes

- Wooden tongue and groove boards (larchwood) are exposed to climatic conditions and need to be pickled. - It is important to protect the Compressed Earth Blocks from any form of precipitation during construction.- By means of appendix G from the booklet ‘Master thesis’, it is assumed that the wooden battens do not fall out as a result of the way the battens are inserted in the wall structure. - Hydrophobization of finishing materials must be done each three years and must be done on a dry surface.- The window frames need to be finished with a white coloured damp open paint. - Wooden framework must be connected to the Compressed Earth Blocks wall by means of steel anchors.
