Course detail
Thermal Protection of Buildings (S)
FAST-BH059Acad. year: 2022/2023
Proper design of thermal technical properties of building structures, rooms and buildings ensures the prevention of thermal defects and failures, ensuring the desired state of the internal environment and low energy performance of buildings. In addition to thermal and moisture microclimate can be optimized design of the structure and the doors and windows also provide the required acoustic microclimate. The optimal design size and type of window pane can affect the thermal, acoustic and visual comfort in the interior and the overall energy balance of the building.
