Full Description

This chapter draws on Chapter 25's fundamental information on heat, air and moisture transport in building assemblies, as well as Chapter 26's material property data. Examples here demonstrate calculation of heat, moisture, and air transport in typical assemblies. For design guidance for common building envelope assemblies and conditions, see Chapter 44 of the 2015 ASHRAE Handbook--HVAC Applications.
