Finding Experts to Execute Your Design
Hey all,
first thanks for all the help and guidance so far. A quick overview. I sketched out a home for the High Desert (92268… climate zone 3). Our temps fluctuate from the mid twenties to over 100 winter to summer. I passed my sketches on to an Designer with years of experience in the desert but I’m finding that without an architect, there’s no one in the system who can give me guidance on the specific construction details…I’m trying to build at least to a “Pretty Good House” standard. Martin’s book and Building Science Fight Club have been hugely inspiring. But when it comes time for pen to meet paper in a way the county will approve…I seem to be at a loss.
The designer has no experience with anything beyond minimum code requirements. The first SE I approached refused to call be back because I was asking for 24″ OC framing and the SE we settled on, while every energy conscious, is also very specific that they do not spend any time on details.
So my question is, how/where/who does one find someone who can intelligently react to requests for external insulation (called “overkill” by a potential builder on our last cabin) window details, etc. And ultimately provide drawings and strategy…I’m even working with some excellent Energy consultants who sized mini-splits, helped with make-up air on the Kitchen and all that stuff…but don’t think about specifying backer rod on windows, which I’d love to see in the plans I had to a builder.
或者我应该只是假设，获得批准的计划，然后通过建设者在沙漠中间站立时通过建筑师谈谈？那是人们做的吗？
这是我意识到我应该与一个关心这种东西的建筑师开始。
我知道网站上有一个细节库，但到目前为止我有一个时间的地狱，导航它......并且墙壁就像指纹，没有两个似乎完全相同。虽然我们的楼下：石灰石膏，排水管和干燥（或类似），柔软板80，WRB，护套，闭合电池绝缘2×6螺柱，可渗透的屏障，服务腔，干墙......并不少见，我似乎找不到在图书馆。
但最终,有设计师/半径标注的SOPftsman without Green Building knowledge, to weave details into plans? Where and when and how.
我知道这是一个超级美丽的问题......所以我真的很欣赏时间。
thanks for any answers or insight.

理查德，
这是一个超级有用的纸张。在我的9到5我在动画中工作......以及每一个完成的唯一方法就是在有令人难以置信的合作，协调和沟通时。看到它仍然很少见。福特金牛座的发展有一个惊人的作品，仍然是有史以来最好的汽车之一......以及他们如何在这里谈论的是如何做到这一点。Zehpyr7在下面的概念上展开。我很幸运能回复。
我想建议将能源评估者联系到第一步。关心足以与能源评估者合作的人可能会足够地关心高性能建筑的其他方面，以更容易接受您的具体要求。
I can tell you that exterior rigid foam is NOT overkill -- it's a actually a very good way to greatly improve the thermal performance of a typical studwall since it eliminates the issue of thermal bridging (which is the main advantage of CONTINUOUS insulation after all).
交易中许多有很大问题是他们想做他们总是做的事情。你会得到很多“嗯，那很好，但我们总是这样做”那种反应。有很大的变化抵抗力，并非所有这些都完全没有根据 - 没有承包商希望负责第一次尝试的“新”的失败。你会发现GBA的人更愿意尝试新事物，因为大部分使用都在这里试图推动信封和eek我们可以的最后一点性能。一些使用（如我），希望尽可能地最大限度地提高一切的效率。其他人想使用他们可以找到的绿色材料，即使它们是不寻常的材料。毕竟有许多不同的方面是“绿色”建筑:-)
我想你会发现一旦你找到有兴趣使用高性能结构的人，那个人可能会知道其他人，这是找到所需的具体专业知识的好方法。诀窍在于发现第一人，我认为用能源评估者检查是一个很好的开始。我在自己的工作中知道，我在商业建筑中做了很多效率升级，我的几乎所有的商业都是来自交易中其他人的推荐。

账单，
谢谢你的深思熟虑，乐于助人的回应。你真的是对的......这就是你建立一个团队的方式......我开始了只是利用自己掌握的人......但如果我要更好地建立，我必须找到一些信徒。再次感谢

Good tip, and where would one start looking for energy raters in their area? I have a similar question as the original poster.
Frankly, in the current economic environment, it's almost impossible to find. Builders can pick the projects they want to work on at the moment so unless you have a ton of money to spend on this project, you'll have a hard time finding a local builder willing to work on a "risky" project. Your best bet is probably to buy from a panelized builder like Bensonwood or build the frame yourself and hire out the rest.
祝你好运
Alexpoi在评论中提供了很多智慧。这可能不是你想听的。但它是我世界的现实。我们的交易现在最多的平庸。它不必难以产生阻力，没有回报。它只是必须不同。
