Thermal Bridging
Junctions and connections within a building envelope can typically provide a
route for heat loss, which must be reduced, or if possible, eliminated. The
diagram opposite illustrates common areas in a building where thermal bridging
may occur. Careful design and implementation is required to ensure that these
particular areas do not create unnecessary heat loss paths.
The proposed design aims to reduce thermal bridging in the building. The
insulation is added in response to avoid any penetration from external weather
and prevent heat loss internally. It is important to focus in extending the
insulation around the MWH in the roof, walls, and floor to prevent any heat loss
from the building.
Air Tightness
A high level of air tightness within the building reduces the heating demand and
prevents moisture-laden air from entering the fabric. Achieving air tightness can
be achieved by using airtight membranes/barriers within the building elements
such as a vapour barrier layer. Where layers could be interrupted, like windows,
propriety tape can be attached to the barrier layer ensuring that around
openings continue to be air tight.
Ensuring the building envelope is air tight to reduce the risk of structural
damage, careful design and installation of components such as windows and
doors is imperative. It is aimed to not allow air to flow randomly through walls of
the envelope. This is important because changing temperatures of air flow is not
sufficient to provide consistently air quality for both the occupant and the
building itself. Poor acoustic insulation and heat loss are further disadvantages.
A new ventilation system and acoustic insulation is added to the
extension/sports hall.
