This document specifies a calculation method to determine the thermal transmittance of glass with flat and parallel surfaces.
This document applies to uncoated glass (including glass with structured surfaces, e.g. patterned glass), coated glass and materials not transparent in the far infrared which is the case for soda lime glass products, borosilicate glass, glass ceramic, alkaline earth silicate glass and alumino silicate glass. It applies also to multiple glazing comprising such glasses and/or materials. It does not apply to multiple glazing which include in the gas space sheets or foils that are far infrared transparent.
The procedure specified in this document determines the U value (thermal transmittance) in the central area of glazing.
The edge effects due to the thermal bridge through the spacer of an insulating glass unit or through the window frame are not included. Furthermore, energy transfer due to solar radiation is not taken into account. The effects of Georgian and other bars are excluded from the scope of this document.
NOTE EN ISO 10077 1:2017 provides a methodology for calculating the overall U value of windows, doors and shutters [1], taking account of the U value calculated for the glass components according to this document.
Also excluded from the calculation methodology are any effects due to gases that absorb infrared radiation in the 5 to 50 µm range.
The primary purpose of this document is product comparison, for which a vertical position of the glazing is specified. In addition, U values are calculated using the same procedure for other purposes, in particular for predicting:
- heat loss through glass;
- conduction heat gains in summer;
- condensation on glass surfaces;
- the effect of the absorbed solar radiation in determining the solar factor [2].
Reference can be made to [3], [4] and [5] or other European Standards dealing with heat loss calculations for the application of glazing U values determined by this standard.
Reference can be made to [6] for detailed calculations of U values of glazing, including shading devices.
Vacuum Insulating Glass (VIG) is excluded from the scope of this document. For determination of the U value of VIG, please refer to EN 674 or ISO 19916-1.
A procedure for the determination of emissivity is given in EN 12898.
The rules have been made as simple as possible consistent with accuracy.

This document provides guidance for the application of the nine general principles of sustainability in buildings and civil engineering works as specified in ISO 15392:2019, 5.3. It shows the different actors involved with the construction works how to take these principles into account in their decision-making processes in order to increase the contribution of the construction works to sustainability and sustainable development. This document provides a step-by-step approach for: — encouraging the application of the general principles by all stakeholders at each stage of the project and its use, from the decision to build and the initial development of the project brief until the end-of-life of the construction works; — helping interested parties to consider and/or incorporate sustainability thinking in all phases of the building’s or civil engineering works’ life cycle, for all relevant issues of concern, by raising key questions in relation to the general principles; — understanding the outcome (effect) of the application of the general principles; — building on acquired experience to develop best practices and engendering a continuous improvement process.

This document establishes the general principles of building environment design to achieve a quality building environment for the occupants and sustainability. This document promotes an approach in which the various parties involved in building environment design collaborate with one another to provide a high-quality building environment. The design process aims to achieve the following: — to address issues concerning sustainability over the building life cycle, including owning and operating costs at all stages of the design process; — to assess the proposed design with rational criteria for the thermal, acoustic and visual environment, the indoor air quality, energy efficiency and performance of technical building systems at each design stage; — to use an iterative design process in which each design stage is subject to design review and decisions before proceeding with the next design phase. The building environment design involves not only the architectural design associated with the environmental quality, but also building system design including effective control methods. This document is applicable to building environment design for new construction and retrofitting existing buildings.

This document provides a methodology for the evaluation of the potential for sustainable refurbishment of an existing building, as a means of contributing to the circular economy, to support the decision-making process. Sustainable refurbishment aims to close the gap between current performance and current requirements fulfilling authorities’ sustainability regulations and contribute to meet sustainability goals which maximizes the environmental, social and economic performance. It also aims to allow the adaptability to fulfil future needs. It can be used for a building or part(s) of a building, as well as a portfolio of buildings.
This document gives a methodology for assessing performance characteristics of existing buildings in terms of:
1) Technical aspects
2) Adaptability
3) Usability
4) Social aspects
5) Energy, water and operational impacts
6) Quality of indoor environment (including health aspects)
7) Economic feasibility
8) Climate change resilience
9) Embodied environmental impacts
The document describes the work to be done in main applicable categories of a 6 steps process:
• Step 0: Establish brief of the object of the assessment
• Step 1: Evaluating the building
• Step 2: Sustainable deconstruction
• Step 3: Sustainable construction process
• Step 4: Sustainable commissioning
• Step 5: Sustainable in use
NOTE In this document the users are people and organisations using the building, including the facility management. In some buildings visitors are also important users and need to be taken into account.
This approach is generic for all types of buildings. At present this document does not cover civil engineering work and it does not give benchmarks for the evaluation.
Assessment of the impacts of sustainable refurbishment of buildings is covered by calculation methods described in EN 15978, EN 16309 and EN 16627.
