15 Why Ventilated RVRS Façades

16 A little deeper page 16

17 Definitions U Value thermal conductance R Value thermal resistance Nominal R Value thermal resistance where only insulation Typically one point in wall No accounting for thermal bridges Effective R Value Total wall performance Input for total building performance Accounts for thermal bridges page 17

18 Steel through insulation Short circuit or leak; need to view in 3D Steel 1000 times U Value (conductance) Energy loss from warm side, not just studs page 18

19 You think it matters Survey results 82% of survey see thermal bridging as Very Important So important I m digging into it myself Important but delegated to others Following building code minimums Clients want it page 19

20 Effective R Value Targets of most recent projects page 20

25 Sources of Thermal Bridging Metal substructure in cladding Window and door frames Parapets Slab edges page 25

26 Old Ways Won t Do Nominal R Value = 16 Effective R Value = 10.2 Worse the more insulation is required page 26

31 Status of Code Ontario. ASHRAE 90.1 is code SB10 and 12 BC. ASHRAE or NEBC City of Vancouver. ASHRAE %, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia; NECB 2011 in 2015 Alberta talking Quebec: residential code NBC: not sure International Construction Code; ASHRAE 90.1 in code Source: Morrison Hershfield page 31

33 Modelling Are we asking the right questions? Facts needed, not just goals of project Assemblies are understood but not used Factor inefficiencies of construction eg air leakage, fasteners Thermal bridges must be accounted for page 33

34 SB 10 holes page 34

35 Impact to buildings page 35

36 Systems Thinking Effectively Continuous Insulation Save Energy Better thermal performance Strong light substructures create fewer bridges Lighter cladding needs less structure Reduce thermal bridges page 36

37 What matters with Thermally Broken Façade Solutions System Design Freedom = Cost effective Non combustible Suited for Ventilated facade Works w All Insulations Design freedom = clips free to be anywhere so Architect can create with no limits from substructure page 37

38 Impact Thicker walls 4 minimum Adjustability for misaligned studs available Flexibility for shapes of walls Design freedom either same or less watch this issue Continuous AVB possible Continuous weather barrier possible page 38

45 Executive Summary The Engineered Assemblies Thermal Clip System is an aluminum thermal clip system for attaching rain-screen cladding systems for steel stud wall assemblies with exterior insulation. Morrison Hershfield was contracted by Engineered Assemblies Inc. (E.A.I) to model the system in order to provide thermal performance values. The system is comprised of aluminum clips connected to horizontal and vertical sub-girts that support rain-screen panel cladding. The clips are attached to a steel stud back-up wall. Thermal breaks are provided at the connection between the sub-girt and clips via a cork/neoprene pad and between the clips and exterior sheathing via an aerogel insulation pad. See Figure 1 for a simplified rendering. Source: Morrison Hershfield page 45

46 TClip Performance Engineering Complete Meets the prescriptive requirements for non- residential steel stud walls in ASHRAE /2010 for all climate zones. Performance of the system is validated through Modeling and the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) Designed for Mid- and High-Rise (Non-Combustible) building envelopes Engineered to accommodate Façade panels generally 8-26mm in thickness Engineered for wind loads up to 50psf Optimized vertical spacing 900mm up to 1200mm apart page 46

47 Model holds for all insulations thermal resistance is independent of - Thickness of insulation - Type of insulation So pick the best insulation you can afford, and TClip provides you the ASHRAE 90.1 and highest effective solution page 47

76 Constructability Adjustability Vertical girt independence Window detailing simple page 76

77 Adjustability a big consideration Quotes from contractors 3.5 difference across a four storey wall based on slab edge locations typical Old way adjustable bars 2 x as many bars Labour expensive Too many things to adjust Insulation hard to install New way adjustability in clip 130 linear feet of bars per person per day Tools available for easy alignment Installation steps are separate 1. Install Clips 2. Find level plane 3. Install Horizontals to level plane 4. Insulate and membrane 5. Verticals 6. Panel page 77

78 Speed of construction Different steps mean different crews with repeatable processes Fast alignment means resolving wall easy Difficult to fail ; easy to fix page 78
