Entering the required information will enable calculation of the wall U-value. The Category and Material for each layer can be selected and the thickness varied to match the proposed design. Variations in material properties
can be achieved via the materials tab, once they have been entered below. Any material not in the database should be entered as "Miscellaneous", "Other" and the Thermal Conductivity defined in the Materials tab. Full
supporting documentation should also be provided.
