Heat loss at thermal bridges – expressed as Psi values – cannot be assessed through the U-value calculations used for the main building fabric elements. The thermal bridging calculation service therefore complements A. Proctor Group’s existing U-value calculator.
This software is designed to support designers and specifiers obtaining Psi values and further address the issue of achieving a healthy building with the output including surface temperature factor, or fRSI. Where the calculated Psi value gives a value for heat loss, the surface temperature factor indicates the internal surface temperature at the junction detail.
Using the Psi value and, in particular, the fRSI calculated by the software, the specialist technical team at A. Proctor Group can then advise on appropriate solutions utilising our ultra-thin Spacetherm® insulation solutions as well as our extensive range of membranes, if required, to contribute to the overall building performance goals.
