[BLDG-SIM] Increased R value Credit for Concrete and Themal Massing

[Habaza11 at cs.com]

The DOE sponsored research to test the effect of the thermal mass and the 
relation between thermal mass and thermal insulation in different climates. DOE-2 
was used to simulate different building alternatives. In summary, the 
research results showed that thermal mass may increase, decrease or has no effect on 
energy consumption.
