There is also a landmark study by Morrison Hershfield in Canada which I don't have access to at the moment that should provide guidance.

Hello Sir,
eQuest does not have the capability to directly model thermal bridges. The typical methodology is to calculate the effective U-value of the insulation/thermal bridge layer when building your layers for the construction.  BC Hydro has published significant research on building  envelope thermal bridging. See the lower portion of the webpage:

Dear building simulation colleagues,
I would very much appreciate any insights or work around to simulate envelope thermal bridges in e-quest.
Sincerely,
LPL
