Description:
Today, new buildings must meet the BC Step Code, ASHRAE 90.1 or National
Energy Code for Buildings' requirements for thermal performance. This
is a tough objective, since documented proof is required. Effective
R-values must be met, not just nominal values, which means that high
conductivity materials that cause thermal bridges must be considered in
the modelling and calculations.
Many of today's conventional wall assemblies fall short of even basic
compliance, causing larger, thicker, and more costly assemblies than
ever before.
Learn what current wall assemblies are getting closest to the target
performance levels, what the code-prescribed targets are for your
region, and what some innovative companies and designers are doing to
solve this issue, both with conventional and proprietary approaches,
while saving cost at the same time. Finally, review some key
differences, strengths and limits for difference thermally-improved
cladding support products.
