Thermal breaks and heat loss Determining the thermal conductivity of a material means we can find out the rate at which heat flows it. This helps us work out the efficiency of the material before it is incorporated within a building envelope. Two factors on...

A closer look at thermal bridging… To understand more about how, why and where thermal bridging occurs, we firstly need to look into different building connections outlined in the very initial stages of a construction project. The bridging occurs when heat passes...

For a very long time, heat loss within buildings—the outcome of thermodynamic interactions when the heated inner and cold outer air collide—was considered as an unavoidable part of architectural construction. Heat loss within a building is gauged using thermal...

In the building and architectural sectors, steel framing has long been widely used. In fact, steel frames make up more than 70% of all multi-storey non-domestic frame building in the UK. Within buildings, steel is incredibly robust, long-lasting, and quick to...
