[Equest-users] Fw: Composite wall of frame and cavity insulation

[Nicholas Caton via Equest-users]

I’ll keep working on getting myself older and learned… I’m at least accomplishing one of those things day by day!

Are you looking specifically for framing + insulation layer properties for a MATERIAL?  I’m not aware if those exist in any current eQUEST library as distributed, but you can look up various combinations for wood/steel framing in 90.1 Appendix A (two separate tables).

There are some (though not a ton) of library LAYERS describing different interior/exterior constructions with attributed ASHRAE codes, but I’m not very clear on what list of constructions these labels are supposed to reference.  Presumably something in Fundamentals of a specific year/vintage, I would guess.

Regards,

~Nick

This is probably something for older learned types (or Nick Caton).

I seem to remember somewhere in the cobwebs of DOE-2 having a particular steel (or wood) framing size and spacing and having different insulating R-values added in the air space between A wall section code fell out, thus being able to be put into a DETAIL Edit construction.

Is the answer to make a dummy Wizard run, create the steel frame spacing, add the insulation, then go to the tree diagram and determine the wall "code" it invented.

This stuff doesn't appear to exist in the wall library.

Thanks

John
