Abstract

This report summarises the results of in situ U-value measurements of walls carried out by the Centre for Research on Indoor Climate & Health, Glasgow Caledonian University (GCU) for Historic Scotland between November 2007 and April 2008 in a sample of buildings representing traditional masonry construction in Scotland. Measurements were made of the heat flow directly through each wall using heat flux sensors mounted on internal surfaces and room and outdoor temperatures. The main objective of the study was to assess the actual thermal performance of traditional building envelopes, in order to provide guidance for energy performance assessments and implementing energy efficiency measures in such buildings.
