  1. U Value
    The measure of the thermal insulation of a material or group of materials. Timber frame achieves excellent U values such as the ones listed below that are typical for external walls. (based on insulated timber frame panel / 50mm cavity & 100mm brickwork external skin)

  2. U-value
    Is a measure of thermal transmittance through a building component usually a roof, wall, window, door, or floor. The U-value multiplied by the area of the component gives the rate of energy (heat) loss through the component per unit of temperature difference between inside and outside air temperatur...

  6. U-Value
    (thermal transmittance co-efficient) basically, a measurement of heat loss. Technically, it is calculated on the rate at which heat transfers through 1m2 of a structure where the temperature difference between the inner and outer face is 1 degree C. The lower the...

  8. U-VALUE
    A measure of air-to-heat transmission (loss or gain) due to the thermal conductance and the difference in indoor and outdoor temperatures. As the U-value decreases, so does the amount of heat that is transferred through the glazing material. The lower the U-value, the more restrictive the fenestrati...
