Helow all,
In this LEED-CS project, the existing masonry wall was changed to the
following configuration (from outside to inside):
- glass-fiber-reinforced concrete panels [TAKTL] on galvanized steel
furring channels
- existing 8" masonry wall
- 3" polyisocyanurate insulation (R-18)
- 1/2" air space
- 3-5/8" metal studs without thermal insulation
- 5/8" gypsum wall board
Per ASHRAE 1.4 Tables “Opaque Building Envelope Constructions” requirnment,
proposed construction assembly U-factor should be as-designed and
consistent with Appendix A of ASHRAE 90.1. I cant fined any table in
Appendix A to match this configuration. How should I select the U-factor
for this wall?
Thank you so much for your help,
Morteza
