This is an issue that makes Wales different – the challenge of having over a third of the building stock traditionally built compared to only just over a fifth in England – a bigger challenge for Wales. Along with the rest of the UK, Wales is currently failing to address this challenge which has economic consequences for these assets as well as heritage and building occupant health consequences – Wales and the UK needs to do better!
By improving our knowledge of these buildings constructed with solid masonry walls, before 1919, we will be able to properly and safely improve them. Ensuring that Architects, surveyors, contractors and small builders understand that the traditional housing stock cannot treated the same way as their modern counterparts as this can often have severe unintended consequences, affecting both the occupiers and reputation.
Following on from a training in Tredegar House, Colin King of BRE, John Edwards of Edwards Hart and Constructing Excellence in Wales are on the road to show the country and industry what is needed and how to take a holistic approach. To identify the many other ways in which buildings can be made more energy efficient and sustainable before contemplating retrofit, which will include the latest research findings from BRE on Unintended Consequences, and Heat Loss, undertaken for DECC, including their cause and effect, and how to reduce the risk. As the Director of Edwards Hart, John Edwards said: “It’s a huge mistake to jump in and retrofit without first properly understanding the building and its condition”.

Teitl: Ol-Osod yr 1 o bob 3 - Adeiladau Traddodiadol Cymru
Dyddiad: Caerdydd
Amser: 8 cofrestru dechrau 8.30 gorffen tua 10.30
Lleoliad: Dydd Iau 21 Gorffennaf
Cost: £42 yn cynnwys TAW
Mae hwn yn fater lle mae Cymru’n wahanol – gyda mwy na thraean o dai’r wlad o adeiladwaith traddodiadol o gymharu â dim ond ychydig dros un o bob pump o dai Lloegr. Fel gweddill y Deyrnas Unedig, nid yw Cymru’n llwyddo ar hyn o bryd i ymateb i her yr asedau hyn - y canlyniadau economaidd, yr oblygiadau treftadol a’r effaith ar iechyd y bobl sy’n byw ynddynt. Rhaid i Gymru a’r Deyrnas Unedig wneud yn well!
Drwy ddysgu mwy am yr adeiladau hyn – adeiladau a godwyd gyda waliau cerrig solid cyn 1919 - gallwn eu gwella mewn ffyrdd priodol a diogel. Rhaid i benseiri, syrfewyr, contractwyr ac adeiladwyr bychain sylweddoli na ellir trin tai traddodiadol yn yr un ffordd â thai modern. Gall gwneud hynny arwain yn aml at effeithiau dwys ac anfwriadol, er drwg i’w meddiannwyr a’ch enw da.
Yn dilyn sesiwn Hyfforddiant Tŷ Tredegar, mae Colin King o’r Sefydliad Ymchwil Adeiladu (BRE), John Edwards o Edwards Hart ac Adeiladu Arbenigrwydd yng Nghymru (CEW) yn teithio o amgylch i ddangos i’r wlad a’r diwydiant beth sydd angen ei wneud, a phwysigrwydd gweithredu’n holistaidd. Nodir llawer o ffyrdd gwahanol o ofalu fod adeiladau’n gwneud defnydd mwy effeithlon a chynaliadwy o ynni cyn ystyried mynd lawr y llwybr ôl-osod (retrofit). Cewch wybod am ganlyniadau ymchwil diweddaraf BRE i’r Aran Ynni a Newid Hinsawdd (DECC) ar Ddeilliannau Anfwriadol a Cholli Gwres, yn cynnwys y rhesymau drostynt, eu heffeithiau a sut i leihau risg. Fel y dywedodd John Edwards, Cyfarwyddwr Edwards Hart: “Camgymeriad mawr yw rhuthro i ôl-osod heb yn gyntaf ddeall yr adeilad a’i gyflwr”.
