A three day event, comprising three tracks (Energy Efficiency/Whole Building/Fenestration) that will provide a focus on specific aspects of performance of building systems with a view to high energy efficiency, good indoor climate and long-term performance.
Edgetech’s Technical Director to Cover ‘Third Thermal Performance Parameter’ at Best2 Conference
Tracy Rogers to present paper on the detrimental effects of condensation in buildings
Rogers’ technical paper titled “Considerations for the Condensation Resistance of Fenestration Assemblies” provides an in-depth look at U-factor and condensation resistance basics, system ratings for thermal performance and the relative effects of U-factor and condensation resistance using third-party data.
According to third-party, independent testing, Edgetech’s Super Spacer® provides the leading condensation resistance of any spacer in North America – up to 131 percent better than metal bar.
Rogers will present his findings on Wednesday afternoon as part of the fenestration tract.
The conference will bring together leading research from Europe, Canada and the United States focusing on existing and future buildings. The academic research will be complimented with "real world" applications and case studies. The program will include panel discussions, featured workshops and plenary speakers.
