Energy Efficient Homes
1.2.2 Identify factors from past eras that influence the evolution of present and future housing styles
1st technology—natural materials—caves, logs, grass, mud, snow, rocks, bark, etc.
Next step was to improve on the natural material, ex. Saw logs into planks, rocks were chipped into blocks, animal hides became coverings for windows and doors
27
Technology Since Industrial Revolution:
Housing materials are massed produced Shipped by rail Prefabricated houses became popular
Ex. Sears and Roebuck—shipped over 110,000 mail order houses in a 40-year period

Technology Today:
Parts of houses come from factory ready to install
Factory produced climate-control units, such as heat pumps, AC and furnaces, have replaced the fireplace and simple fans
Labor-intensive tasks are done by machine—washing machine, dishwasher, vacuum
32
Technology Future (and now)
Computers will run many household systems
Smart houses— Checks AC temperatures Refrigerators for supplies Order groceries and have them delivered Energy Saving devices New Cooking methods CADD (Computer Aided Drafting and Design)
33
1.3.3 Major challenges in the area of housing today and in the future Space/Privacy Cost
Affordable materials Energy efficiency Zoning issues Aging Populations Changes in the family lifecycle
34
1.1.3 Individual and family needs affecting housing choices Personal Priorities

39
ACTIVITY In table groups, discuss what you think
would be specific housing needs for each of the different stages that a family goes through. Draw a sample house plan and yard that would be appropriate for the family phase you choose.
40
1.1.3 Special housing needs for a disabled or elderly person.
41
One level Wide doorways Non-skid rugs/no
rugs Easy access light
switches Lever door handles Drawers instead of
doors in kitchen
Universal design is the concept of making houses easier for everyone to use
42
1.1.3 Suggest housing modifications for a family member with special needs.
Remove carpets to prevent trippingDoorways should be 30-36” wide to
accommodate crutches and wheelchairsEntries should be with be flat and
without thresholdsNon-skid mats used in bathEveryday tasks should be designed so
they can maintain their routineBathroom and utilities on main floor to
prevent having to climb stairs
43
1.4 Decision-making process as it relates to housing choices.1. Identify the challenge2. List possible solutions3. Make a decision4. Take action5. Evaluate results
44
1.4 Apply the decision making process to housing choices. As a group of 2-3, choose a housing
problem and apply the decision making process to this problem. You will have 5 minutes to discuss and then present to the class. Have a member of the team write the procedure on paper and put all members name on it for a daily grade.

residents are similar to each other
Heterogeneous—varied Low density/high
density

Site—piece of land on which the dwelling is built. Extends to the property line. Things to consider: size, shape, contour, soil
type, view, privacy Natural restraints—topography—features of lot Landscaping Orientation—location of the sun, prevailing
winds, water sources, scenic view Legal restraints—minimum property standards Zones within the site—public, service, private
