U-values and traditional buildings in situ measurements and their comparisons to calculated values [electronic resource] - Edinburgh Historic Scotland 2011 - Historic Scotland Technical Paper (10) .

Presents the results of a thermal performance study of traditional building elements, using U-values as an indicator of thermal performance. Measurements were taken in situ, and then compared to computer-generated U-value calculations. Found that such calculations ofted under estimate the thermal performance of traditional building elements.
