 Typical details of a retrofit project are calculated for insulation thicknesses increasing in 25mm steps, starting with 0mm of insulation (usually the existing building) up to 400mm of insulation. These steps of insulation thicknesses were applied to two construction types, brick wall and concrete wall constructions. Also the conductivity value of the insulation layer was modified assuming 0.025 W/(mK), 0.035 W/(mK) and 0.045 W/(mK). Typical details of a retrofit project are calculated for insulation thicknesses increasing in 25mm steps, starting with 0mm of insulation (usually the existing building) up to 400mm of insulation.

-Thank to interpolations, the Thermal Bridge Tool Is providing the results (psi-value and f<sub>Rsi</sub>-factor) for the above- mentioned details for insulation thicknesses in 20m steps and conductivity values of the insulation layer between 0.025 W/(mK) and 0.045 W/(mK) with steps of 0.001 W/(mK).+Thank to interpolations, the Thermal Bridge Tool Is providing the results (psi-value and f<sub>Rsi</sub>-factor) for the above- mentioned details for insulation thicknesses in 20mm steps and conductivity values of the insulation layer between 0.025 W/(mK) and 0.045 W/(mK) with steps of 0.001 W/(mK).
