Energy-efficient construction

The facades of buildings constituting the outer shell external wall with a layer of air ventilated, are more widely used, as in the case of new buildings, which the modernization of existing facilities. The distinctive feature of these systems is the use of mechanical fasteners, thermal insulation piercing, which point thermal bridges. Thermal bridges are often made of aluminum, radically increases the loss of heat transmitted by this kind of barrier construction. The impact of these point thermal bridges is not entirely accurately and properly taken into account in the calculation of thermal insulation throughout the building partition. The article analyzes the impact of mechanical fasteners systems ventilated facade insulation on the external partition. Drew attention to the directions of the search for new solutions to material and design of this type of envelope.
