Abstract
Hybrid buildings, hybrid building systems, methods of constructing hybrid buildings, and a method of ventilating such a building are disclosed. First and second building sections forming part of such buildings are also disclosed. One such hybrid residential building (1800) comprises a first building section (1810) and a second building section (1820). The first building section is an on-site construction at a final location for the building and defines an internal volume (1813) that provides a living space (1815) within the building. The second building section defines an internal volume (1823) and is transportable to the final location in a substantially assembled form. The first and second building sections are connected at the final location to form the building. The building comprises a ventilation system (1860) which is configured to supply external air into the building, and to withdraw internal air from the building and to discharge it to the building exterior, to thereby control ventilation of the building.
