Calibrated hot box test results data manual. Volume 1. Final report. [Concrete, masonry, wood, veneer-wood]
This manual summarizes results from 15 wall assemblies tested under steady-state and dynamic temperature conditions in the calibrated hot box facility. The calibrated hot box provides data on the heat transmission characteristics of full-size wall assemblies under steady-state and dynamic temperature conditions. Steady-state tests are used to obtain average heat transmission coefficients. Dynamic tests provide data on thermal performance under controlled conditions that simulate actual temperature changes in building envelopes. This manual summarizes test results of six concrete masonry walls, two masonry cavity walls, three concrete walls, three wood frame walls, and a brick veneer-wood frame wall. A description of wall geometry and material properties is given for each specimen. The manual presents steady-state, transient, and dynamic (periodic) test results in tabular form, in figures, and in summary tables.
