http://www.buildingscience.com The High R-Value Wall Assemblies are summaries of the results of BSC’s ongoing High R-Value Enclosure research — a study that BSC has undertaken for the US DOE’s Building America research program to identify and evaluate residential assemblies that cost-effectively provide 50 percent improvement in thermal resistance. daily 1 2010-06-11T08:09:12Z http://www.buildingscience.com/documents/information-sheets/high-r-value-wall-assemblies/high-r-wall-01-standard-wall-construction Constructing high R-value walls is the first and easiest step in reducing the whole house energy consumption. But first a reference wall is needed for comparison.
