  3. External wall insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_wall_insulation

    External wall insulation systems generally comprise firstly an insulation layer (an element which helps to achieve the requisite thermal performance); and secondly,a protected weatherproof finish (usually a render, although brick slips, [3] tiles, and decorative boards can also be used). Insulating render can also be an advantage in certain ...

  4. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

    Rigid panel insulation, also known as continuous insulation [13] can be made from foam plastics such as polyisocyanurate or polystyrene, or from fibrous materials such as fiberglass, rock and slag wool. Rigid panel continuous insulation is often used to provide a thermal break in the building envelope, thus reducing thermal bridging.

  5. List of insulation materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_insulation_materials

    This is a list of insulation materials used around the world. Typical R-values are given for various materials and structures as approximations based on the average of available figures and are sorted by lowest value. R-value at 1 m gives R-values normalised to a 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) thickness and sorts by median value of the range.

  6. ASHRAE 55 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASHRAE_55

    ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55: Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy is an American National Standard published by ASHRAE that establishes the ranges of indoor environmental conditions to achieve acceptable thermal comfort for occupants of buildings. It was first published in 1966, and since 2004 has been updated every three to six years.

  7. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)

    Installed faced fiberglass batt insulation with its R-value visible (R-21) [1]. The R-value is a measure of how well a two-dimensional barrier, such as a layer of insulation, a window or a complete wall or ceiling, resists the conductive [2] flow of heat, in the context of construction. [3]
