With the latest developments in thermal analysis, carbon emission reductions are possible. Other innovative techniques are also essential for developing sustainable roofs and improving the building envelope efficiency against the worst thermal flux and bridging.
Effective insulation strategies that enhance energy efficiency, prevent moisture intrusion, and contribute to a durable and sustainable structure are crucial in this process.
Understanding the impact of fasteners penetrating through the control layers responsible for keeping the building dry and comfortable is critical to long-term sustainability both in terms of durability and energy performance.
Vitro Architectural Glass announced that one of its highest-performing products, VacuMax™ Vacuum Insulating Glass (VIG), has been refined to deliver even better thermal performance and improved aesthetics.
Standing 366 feet tall and 516 feet wide, MSG Sphere is the largest spherical structure in the world. Designed by Populous, it features a 580,000-square-foot LED wrap-around exterior, covered in 1.2 million LED lights.
Although both wet-bulb globe temperature and Heat Index take into consideration dry-bulb temperature and relative humidity, Heat Index is calculated specifically for outdoor shaded areas and does not consider conductive heat transfer from wind speed or the heat stress added by direct sun exposure.
FLIR Systems unveiled the next generation FLIR i-Series point-and-shoot infrared cameras, featuring higher resolutions and wider field-of-view choices – three rugged models that help users find problems faster and more accurately.
