Analysis of Material Solutions of Exterior Walls with Contact Thermal Insulation System

Abstract:

Nowadays, heating energy demand has become a significant estimator used during the design stage of any new building. The residential building sector consumes a significant amount of fossil fuel energy and thereby produces a large percentage of greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global warming and climate change. The aim of the paper is analysis of thermo-physical and environmental parameters of proposed versions of exterior wall structures.
