Instructions <br />Overview The Chapter 5 Approach allows any combination of building envelope components as long as the collective <br />heat loss doesn't exceed a maximum limit established by code. The calculations an the lower part of this page may be <br />ignored if below grade wall insulation will either be R-19 on the interior or R-10 on the exterior or if the basement will not <br />be heated or a habitable space, and the floor above is insulated. <br />Page 2, Target Dwelling Calculation. Compute areas using outer surfaces for walis, ceilings (less skylights), and 800rs. <br />Use the rough-framed opening areas for doors and glazing. WSEC Chapter 10 default values must be used for all walls, <br />ceilings, floors, untested doors/glazing, and to determine below-grade walUslab UA•. The Target glazing area is 15% of <br />the total heated floc- area. ' <br />Page 2, Proposed Dwelltng Calculallon. Compute areas using outer surfaces for wall, ceilings, and floors. Use the <br />rough-framed opening areas for doors and glazing. WSEC Chapter 10 default values must be used for all walls, ceilings, <br />floors, untested doors/glazing, and to determine below-grade walUslab UA'. <br />The Proposed Owelling comp/!es H fhe Proposed UA doesnY exceed the Target UA. <br />Tiansfer wall, celling, floor, g/azing, and door values (R and U) to the Checkllst <br />Below Gnde Calculation (for below-gnde wall/slab heat loss tradeoffa) <br />1. For each wall that differs in depth, perform a separate calculaHon using Steps 2 8 3. Sum the totals. <br />2. Detertnine wall area from the slab surface to the top of the mud sill. Exclude door and glazing areas and insert only <br />the concrete wall area into the designated boxes for both Target and Proposed heat loss. <br />3. Find the appropriate wall depths in Table 1 and insert the corresponding wall values into the Target box(es). MulBply <br />the corresponding wall U-factor by the area derived in Step #1. <br />4. Measure the perimeter distance in linear feet ior each slab under a wall with a different Table 1 depth. Insert the slab <br />R-factor from Table 1 corresponding to each wall listed in Step #3. <br />GET HEAT LOSS ` able 1(Belaw grade wall/slabs) <br />wall #1 � (Ft2) X U = Depth'Indiwtes the total conaste wall depth <br />ncludiny not moro than 8'of wall obove yrade level.) <br />slab #1 (L.Ft) x F_ _ <br />x u 1= <br />x r �_ <br />TOTAL COLUMN <br />'If value is not IisM_d, use standaM engineering practice <br />tlE��EfM)aaTulN <br />Insulated interiorwall <br />2' depth: Walla <br />Slab <br />3.5' depth: Walls <br />Slab <br />7' depth: Walls <br />Slab <br />Insulated extertor wall <br />2' depth: Walls <br />Siab <br />3.5' depth: Walls <br />Slab <br />7' depth: Walls <br />Slab <br />Values <br />U.043 <br />F.69 <br />U.041 <br />F.64 <br />U.037 <br />F.57 <br />U.070 <br />F.60 <br />U.064 <br />F.57 <br />U.056 <br />F.42 <br />
