current building practice:
statement:
Current building envelope design is thermally inefficient, fractured into several layers. Perimeter heat gain/loss add significant loads to the mechanical system which must then be over-designed to compensate for this inefficiency. This increases the size/cost of the mechanical system and adds cost to the buildings operation and maintenance during its lifetime. A simpler, cheaper, and more thermally effective envelope may be obtained by combining the enclosure with a radiant heating system into a single layer, creating a heat exchange-relation between the envelope and the occupants. In order to test this hypothesis, the following process-design is used to measure the proposed assembly. By measuring its value within the domains of aesthetics, structural performance, mechanical performance, material cost and profit, one is able to obtain a qualitative and quantitative understanding of the many design permutations that the system can generate.

EF 4: PROMOTE SUPER-INSULATED EXTERIOR WALLS

Zoning Resolution of the City of New York Proposal developed by the Energy & Ventilation Committee
Summary
Issue: Building envelope design has a major impact on both heat loss in winter and solar gain in summer. Using the flexibility in current energy codes, designers can meet energy-efficiency requirements by trading off the efficiency of mechanical and lighting equipment against the thermal integrity of the envelope. Since the building envelope will be in use for a century or more, this trade-off is short-sighted. Recommendation: Establish fixed performance requirements for building envelopes with respect to heat loss, independent of mechanical and lighting equipment choices.
Summary
Issue: The Citys definition of floor area, which determines how large a building can be, includes exterior wall thickness. This penalizes thick, energy-efficient walls, and rewards poorly insulated thin-wall construction. Recommendation: For super-insulated walls, exclude up to eight inches of the exterior wall thickness from the floor area calculation.

Proposed Legislation, Rule or Study

Amendments to ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA 90.1 (2007), as incorporated in Chapter 13 of the New York City Building Code: 1. Add a new Section 5.4.4 as follows: 5.4.4 Maximum Exterior Building Envelope Heat Transfer. 5.4.4.1 Exterior building envelopes shall comply either with the prescriptive option of subsection 5.4.4.2 or the performance option of subsection 5.4.4.3 notwithstanding whether the overall building design complies with the requirements of the Energy Cost Budget Method of Section 11. In addition to the foregoing, if the energy cost budget trade off option as set forth in Section 11 is chosen as a compliance path and requires a lower average U-factor than .25 Btu/hr-sf-oF, then that lower value must be utilized in the proposed design. Exception: Any building with a peak design rate of energy usage less than 3.4 Btu/hr-sf or 1.0 watt/sf of floor area for space conditioning purposes. 5.4.4.2 Exterior building envelopes excluding the roof but including skylight area in excess of 5% of roof area shall have a maximum average U-factor of 0.25 Btu/hr-sf-oF for buildings receiving permits before July 1, 2016, 0.20 Btu/hr-sf-oF o for buildings receiving permits after July 1, 2016 but before July 1, 2022, or 0.16 Btu/hr-sf- F for buildings receiving permits after July 1, 2022, notwithstanding whether the exterior building envelope has a sufficiently high envelope performance factor as set forth in Section 5.6, except as permitted in subsection 5.4.4.3 The maximum average Ufactor shall be calculated by averaging the U-factor of each component of the exterior building envelope excluding roof but including skylights over the entire above-ground wall and fenestration areas that enclose heated spaces but excluding semiheated spaces. The average U-factor shall be calculated as follows: Average U-factor = UAref/Atotal = (UA1 + UA2 + . . . UAn) / Atotal where UA = the U-factor for each individual exterior building envelope component excluding the roof but including skylights (except those over semiheated spaces) multiplied by the total area of such component incorporated in the exterior building envelope. The U-factor for each component shall be calculated by taking into account thermal bridging at metal studs and members, shelf angles, floor edges, projecting balconies, window frames, and other components passing through the thermal barrier. U-factors can be determined using test results as required by this standard, tabulations provided by this standard, Standard NFRC-100-2004 methods, or two-dimensional or three-dimensional heat flow modeling, provided that three-dimensional heat flow modeling shall not be used to determine the U-value for standard wall-types listed in the above referenced tables. For residential construction with exposed slab edges, the following table must be used for U-factors.

Amendments to Zoning Resolution of the City of New York 1. Amend Section 12-10 to add the following definition: Exterior Building Envelope: the elements of a building that separate conditioned spaces from the exterior; Definition of Roof; the upper portion of the building envelope, including opaque areas and fenestration, that is horizontal or tilted at an angle of less than 60o from the horizontal; Definition of Skylight: a fenestration surface having a slope of less than 60o from the horizontal plane. (All definitions from ASHRAEA 90.1, 2007) 2. Amend Section 12-10 as follows: However the floor area of a building shall not include: <Add the following to the list> (12) Floor area used to add thermal insulation to the exterior of an existing building or to super-insulate a new building, subject to the following: (i) In buildings constructed or permitted prior to July 1, 2011, the exempted floor area is the thickness of the insulated wall assembly added to the existing exterior side wall, rear wall, or rear wall equivalent, limited to a maximum of 8" added to any wall, and provided that the added insulated wall assembly achieves a minimum R-value of 3.5 times its thickness in inches, the windows achieve a minimum of R-3.5, and within the walls being insulated, the window area does not exceed 50% of the wall area. (ii) In buildings or additions permitted after July 1, 2011, the exempted floor area is up to 8 of exterior wall thickness in excess of 8 thickness (i.e. for exterior wall thickness between 8 and 16), measured at a point 30 above the finished floor, provided that the thermal performance of the building envelope meets the minimum prescriptive or performance requirements listed below, that the total exempted floor area does not exceed 5% of the allowable floor area, and that the building implement measurement and verification protocols to determine whether the envelope is performing as predicted with respect to thermal transmission. The minimum prescriptive requirement is that average U-value of the exterior building envelope excluding roof but including skylights is less than .75 the average U-value allowed by the New York City Energy Conservation Code. The minimum performance requirement is that on an annual basis the modeled envelope must perform better than or equal to an envelope where average U-value of the exterior building envelope excluding roof but including skylight area in excess of 5% of roof area is less than .70 the average U-value allowed by the New York City Energy Conservation Code and the vision glass has a SHGC of less than 0.4; but in no case can the average U-value of the exterior building envelope excluding roof but including skylight area in excess of 5% of roof area be greater than the average U-value allowed by the New York City Energy Conservation Code. (iii) The calculation of R-values, the average U-value, and any modeling shall be as per the requirements of the New York City Energy Conservation Code and submitted to the Department of Buildings.
