This webinar will cover changes to the National Construction Code (NCC), with a special focus on Section J which sets out the requirements for energy efficiency of buildings. NCC 2019 introduced a direct reference to thermal bridging for the first time in Australian construction industry’s history, directly impacting thermal performance of most buildings.
Learn how the new requirements will impact thermal compliance, traditional wall design, Façade U-Value modelling and work of ESD consultants.
Key topics to be covered include:
- Basic principles of thermal insulation
- Section J update and impact on Energy Efficiency NZS 4214 – effects of thermal bridging and R-values
- Façade U-value modelling
- Impact on ESD consultants
- Performance Solutions vs Deem to Satisfy
