Checklist
This handbook was prepared for InstaFibre Ltd and it provides thermal bridging junction details for external wall insulations. The drawings provided are for typical details and show all the elements essential in achieving the calculated c-values. All other site requirements and all relevant building regulations must be taken into consideration when implementing the details.
The detail in this handbook includes drawings of the junction, c-values calculated by an experienced thermal modeller and a process checklist for use on site to facilitate the achievement of the calculated c-values.
A more detailed description for each section of a Constructive Detail can be found in the original Guidance Note which is located on the first page of each Constructive Detail.

The details have been prepared taking into consideration a range of wall constructions used in the UK over the last 50 years. From this, it was deemed appropriate to use a 230 mm wall with a thermal conductivity of 3.49 W·m–1·K–1.
The c-values are provided for different thicknesses of insulation. For each band, the c-value is calculated for the worst case after considering the effect of thickness and conductivity of insulation independently. This c-value can therefore be taken for the complete range of thicknesses quoted.
In all of the details the wall finish drawn is 13 mm dense plaster. This was chosen for consistency and also as it is a common construction method.
A series of tips on interpreting the information in each Constructive Detail, is given below, starting from the first to the last page.
