Grant Description: Building envelopes consist of the windows, walls, roofs, foundations, and other elements that comprise building exteriors and/or enclose conditioned spaces. Building envelopes are the primary factor governing the heating, cooling, and ventilation requirements of buildings and also influence electric lighting requirements. Thus, building envelopes influence about half of building energy use. All building envelope components have direct impact on peak loads and are linked to electricity reliability for electric powered space conditioned buildings. Substantial energy savings can be achieved through improvements in the materials, components, and systems that make up building envelopes and in the related design and construction processes. There is a need for improved envelope performance in terms of heat losses and gains, infiltration, daylighting availability, etc., through advanced component technology, systems integration and an improved understanding of the basic processes governing envelope performance.
