Objectives:
- heat transfer and there consequences on building-elements and houses
 - forms of heat transfer (conduction, radiation, convection)
 - physical characteristics of the different materials (λ Lambda, ρ Rho)
 - thermal bridges and how to avoid them
 - effect of wind and air leaks on heat transfer
 
Method:
- lectures, exercises, workshop
 
Theory:
- lectures, charts, presentations …
 
Practice/Task:
- working groups with 3 to 4 participants working on thermal bridge, air leakage examples
 - calculate U-values with programs (www.u-wert.com)
 - explain air tightness measures on selected details
 - measuring surface temperatures on different matters (in winter)
