Building Envelope Principles
• Conduction • The transfer of heat through a solid material,
moving from warmer to cooler particles that are in direct physical contact.

How is R-Value Determined?
Nominal R-Value is the thermal resistance of insulation alone as determined in accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission R-value rule.
www.ftc.gov/bcp/rulemaking/rvalue/index.shtml
Conductive Heat Loss
What is R-value? Resistance
What is U-factor? Conductance
Both are a measurement of a material or building assembly’s heat transfer properties
R=1/U$and$U=1/R$
U-Factor Comparison

The main reason to retard the transmission of water vapor through building envelopes is to prevent it from condensing to liquid water within the structure.

What Determines How �Tight� a Vapor Retarder is Required in Walls? �In general, the colder the climate, the tighter the vapor retarder should be. Also, the more vapor- tight the building�s outer skin, the tighter the vapor retarder should be.�

How are Condensation Problems Avoided in Cathedral (Sloped) Ceilings? �Since commonly used asphalt roof shingles have very low vapor permeance, cathedral ceilings can be likened to walls with very low permeance exterior skins. As in walls, the use of very tight, continuous vapor retarders can prevent condensation problems in cathedral ceilings. Problems can occur, however, if a vapor retarder is not continuous.�
