the aim is to wrap the entire thermal envelope in a blanket of insulation, thereby eliminating all bridges. However, practicalities and cost may prevent this goal from being achieved. To properly assess junctions that contain thermal bridging, 2D thermal modelling
is often needed. This modelling must be carefully performed using validated software to ensure accurate results.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

calculations for wood-framed construction. Common junction details and their modelling conventions will be examined. Modelling techniques will be taught using Therm. Participants will be given the opportunity to perform calculations and have them reviewed
in class.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
