NBS Thermal Integrity Diagnostic Tests on Eight GSA Federal Office Buildings
This report summarizes preliminary results of diagnostic tests to evaluate the thermal integrity of eight Federal office buildings located throughout the country. The test results include tracer gas measurements of air infiltration rates, pressurization tests of the air tightness of the building shell, and inspections of the envelope employing infrared thermography. In addition, the thermal U-values of exterior walls were measured with both heat flow meters and a portable calorimeter box. The data collected on these buildings are still undergoing analysis and therefore are to be considered preliminary.
