2. Domestic roof construction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domestic_roof_construction

   Building codes in the U.S. specify ventilation rates as a minimum of 1 sq ft (0.093 m 2) of opening per 150 sq ft (14 m 2) (1:150) with a ratio of 1:300 in some conditions. [8] Warm air rises, so ceiling insulation is designed to have a higher r-value and the insulation is often installed between the ceiling joists or rafters.

   A study by Ducker International in 2005 identified the average cost per year of a metal roof to be US$3.2 per square metre ($0.30/sq ft) while single-ply roofs stood at $6.1/m 2 ($0.57/sq ft) and built-up roofing at $4.0/m 2 ($0.37/sq ft).

   The connection wires run under the ridge cap at the top of the roof. Efficiency ranges from 10–18% but only costs about $2.00–$3.00 per watt of installed capacity, compared to monocrystalline which is 17–22% efficient and costs $3.00–$3.50 per watt of installed capacity. Thin film solar is light weight at 7–10 ounces per square foot.

5. Solar irradiance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_irradiance

   The SI unit of irradiance is watts per square metre (W/m 2 = Wm −2). The unit of insolation often used in the solar power industry is kilowatt hours per square metre (kWh/m 2). [11] The langley is an alternative unit of insolation. One langley is one thermochemical calorie per square centimetre or 41,840 J/m 2. [12]

   In radio astronomy, the unit of electromagnetic flux is the jansky (symbol Jy), equivalent to 10 −26 watts per square metre per hertz (= 10 −26 kg/s 2 in base units, about 8.8×10 −31 BTU/ft 2). It is named after the pioneering radio astronomer Karl Jansky. The brightest natural radio sources have flux densities of the order of one to one ...
