The isolation, protagonist of the new CTE

Said Appendix And contains the ‘orientative Values of the characteristic parameters of the envolvente thermal sensors' and contributes values for the predimensionado of construction solutions into use residential in function of the climatic zone. Of this way can do a comparative simple between the ancient normative (CTE 2006) and the new requirements (CTE 2013) for general constructive elements in the different climatic zones.

These thicknesses are merely orientative since they will be able to reduce or increase in function of the design of the building, orientation, degree of permeability to the air of the enclosures glazed, insulating material, etc. For the calculation has used a material of half isolation with a conductivity of 0.036 W/m.K; It considers a façade without camera and treated the thermal sensors bridges, a cover bent and floors in contact with the terrain. The utilisation of the thicknesses indicated does not guarantee the fulfillment of the requirement, for what it will be necessary to use the programs that determine , but would have to drive to next solutions to his fulfillment, what represents a big help for the prescriptor.

The remarkable increase of the thicknesses, that can approximate to the double, recognises to the isolation like the fundamental element on which design any politics of saving of power in the buildings and to fulfil with the commitments derived of the different Managerial Europeans in this matter. In the web page of Andimat, can find a more complete table in function of distinct constructive and different solutions values of thermal sensors conductivity of the insulating material.
