Effects of Metal Fasteners of Ventilated Building Facade on the Thermal Performances of Building Envelopes

Thermal bridging in the building envelope is one of the main causes of energy losses, even in high-efficiency ventilated building façades. In this study, the effects of point-thermal bridges attributed to metal fasteners on the heat transferred through different types of bricks were predicted. All t...
