Thermal shield requirements analysis for enclosing structures in Ukraine and Europe=Аналіз теплозахисних вимог до огороджувальних конструкцій в Україні та країнах Європи

Abstract

Modern construction one of main problems is cost savings on buildings heating. Most European countries norms are set as general buildings energy efficiency indicators as well as necessary or minimum permissible enclosing structures heat transfer resistance. These indicators depend on designation and climatic conditions of buildings operation. Countries with large territories are divided into zones with different heat engineering requirements for enclosing. For example, according to the norms. Analysis showed that buildings thermal isolation Ukraine requirements aren’t harmonized with Europe and require an increase in minimum required enclosing structures heat transfer resistance.
