Thermal transmittance of lightweight steel framed walls: Experimental versus numerical and analytical approaches

Given the great influence of the thermal transmittance of the building envelope on the overall thermal performance and energy efficiency of the building, it is essential to accurately determine the U-value of the main building envelope elements. Due to the great heterogeneity of the thermal conducti...
