Learning Objectives

1. Understand what thermal bridging is and what effect it has in energy loss.
2. Understanding of terminology of heat loss and gain in buildings and how K- values, R- values, and U- values help us select the correct materials and assemblies for the best results.
3. Understand how 3D thermal modeling can help us design better assemblies to mitigate energy loss in transitions. We also discuss areas most affected by thermal bypasses and how to address them in the design phase.
4. Avoid condensation issues related to thermal bridging.
5. Confirm that continuous insulation contributes to ASHRAE 90.1 and LEED v5 standards.

One of the most striking points is that thermal bridging alone can reduce a building’s energy performance by 30–60%, meaning many buildings significantly underperform despite meeting nominal insulation values.
