Compliance for Metal Buildings

Metal buildings are typically insulated by draping batt-type insulation over the structural supports and attaching the metal panels, compressing the insulation at the supports.

AEDG Implementation Recommendations: Cool Roofs

Cool roofs are recommended for roofs with insulation entirely above deck and metal building roofs. The radiative property values should be rated by a laboratory accredited by the Cool Roof Rating Coun...

Energy Code Compliance for Metal Buildings

If your local jurisdiction allows the use of COMcheck to demonstrate energy code compliance, showing compliance for metal buildings can be much easier than you may have thought.

(PDF) ASHRAE 90.1 Compliance For Metal Buildings(Link opens in a new window)

This guide contains typical metal building insulation system constructions and their associated U-values when different thicknesses of insulation are used. For ASHRAE 90.1 compliance, the systems sele...

Rigid Board Insulation Installed as Draft Stop in Attic Kneewall - Code Notes

Rigid board insulation (foam plastic) is an effective draft stop and also increases the R-value of the attic kneewall if installed on the attic side of the kneewall, replacing the need for separate dr...
