Summary
Heat transfer characteristics of building elements must be known to evaluate energy losses through a building envelope. Laboratory tests of walls for dynamic outdoor temperture conditions provide data that can be used to determine thermal properties. Dynamic testing is particularly important for massive envelope components that store as well as transmit heat. A normal weight concrete wall with board insulation on the outdoor surface was tested in the calibrated hot box facility at the Construction Technology Laboratories, a division of the Portland Cement Association. The wall consisted of 8 in. (200 mm) of normal weight concrete with 5/8-in. (16-mm) polyisocyanurate board insulation bonded to the outdoor surface.
