505 1 _aBackground to refurbishing sustainable Victorian housing: refurbishment of a four-storey tenement in Greenock, Scotland -- Developing an assessment methodology: development of EcoHomes XB and EcoHomes XBC; benchmarking pre-1919 housing using EcoHomes XBC -- Case study one: the Nelson Housing Market Regeneration Scheme -- Case study two: the Flagship Home Project, Beaufort Gardens, London -- Case study three: the Nottingham Ecohome -- Annex: the ICOMOS Charter on Built Vernacular Heritage
520 _aSets out a method of assessing the refurbishment of traditionally built houses (1840-1919) similar to the method used in BREEAM EcoHomes. In particular, looks at competing requirements for modern energy and acoustic standards, whole building performance and the effects of durability, reliability and maintainability of the building fabric. Also considers the economic, environmental and social costs and benefits of retaining Victorian and Edwardian housing and develops a methodology that can be used in the assessment process. Includes case studies.
