    Can anybody suggest taking the below title and simplifying it as reducing the word count as it is being used as a dissertation title. The meaning in the title should not be compromised

    "A comparison into the Thermal Quality of the Building Fabric of a Convectional house and a Passive House"

    Regards,

    A convectional house ??? Is this a house with poor airtightness perhaps:D

    How bout:

    Building fabric thermal characteristics comparison; Conventional vs Passive

    Yes my lecturer reckons a traditional house is too broad in terms of stone rubble walls etc.. so his theory was to call it a conventional house relating to a house in present time :)

    Define Conventional? Is this a house built to minimum code? Part L 2011.

    You could call it "4-7%"
    as thats the price difference between specifications for an Architect designed medium to high finishes build, Code Compliant vs Certified Passivhaus.
