Building components and building elements - Thermal resistance and thermal transmittance - Calculation method (ISO 6946:2007)
ISO 6946:2007 provides the method of calculation of the thermal resistance and thermal transmittance of building components and building elements, excluding doors, windows and other glazed units, curtain walling, components which involve heat transfer to the ground, and components through which air is designed to permeate.
The calculation method is based on the appropriate design thermal conductivities or design thermal resistances of the materials and products for the application concerned.
The method applies to components and elements consisting of thermally homogeneous layers (which can include air layers).
ISO 6946:2007 also provides an approximate method that can be used for elements containing inhomogeneous layers, including the effect of metal fasteners, by means of a correction term given in Annex D. Other cases where insulation is bridged by metal are outside the scope of ISO 6946:2007.
Bauteile - Wärmedurchlasswiderstand und Wärmedurchgangskoeffizient - Berechnungsverfahren (ISO 6946:2007)
Diese Internationale Norm legt das Verfahren zur Berechnung des Wärmedurchlasswiderstandes und des Wärme¬durchgangskoeffizienten von Bauteilkomponenten und Bauteilen fest. Davon ausgenommen sind Türen, Fenster und andere verglaste Einheiten, Vorhangfassaden, an das Erdreich grenzende Bauteilkomponenten und Lüftungselemente.
Das Berechnungsverfahren beruht auf den Bemessungswerten der Wärmeleitfähigkeit oder Wärme¬durchlasswiderstände der Baustoffe und Produkte für die jeweilige Anwendung.
Das Verfahren gilt für Bauteilkomponenten und Bauteile aus thermisch homogenen Schichten (die auch Luftschichten enthalten können).
Diese Norm gibt auch ein Näherungsverfahren für Bauteile mit inhomogenen Schichten an. Die Wirkung von mechanischen Befestigungselementen wird durch den in Anhang D angegebenen Korrekturfaktor berücksichtigt. Andere Fälle, in denen die Wärmedämmung von einer metallischen Schicht durchdrungen sind, sind nicht Gegenstand dieser Norm.
Composants et parois de bâtiments - Résistance thermique et coefficient de transmission thermique - Méthode de calcul (ISO 6946:2007)
L'ISO 6946:2007 fournit la méthode de calcul de la résistance thermique et du coefficient de transmission thermique des composants et parois de bâtiments, à l'exclusion des portes, des fenêtres et autres parois vitrées, des murs-rideaux, des composants qui mettent en jeu un transfert de chaleur vers le sol et des composants parcourus par l'air de ventilation du bâtiment.
La méthode de calcul est basée sur les conductivités thermiques utiles ou résistances thermiques utiles appropriées des matériaux et produits pour l'application concernée.
La méthode s'applique aux composants et parois constitués de couches thermiquement homogènes (qui peuvent comprendre des lames d'air).
L'ISO 6946:2007 fournit aussi une méthode approchée, qui peut être appliquée pour les parois comportant des couches hétérogènes et qui tient compte de l'effet des fixations métalliques, par l'utilisation d'un terme de correction. Les autres cas, où l'isolation est traversée par du métal, sont en dehors du domaine d'application de la l'ISO 6946:2007.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 6946 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 163, Thermal performance and energy use in the
built environment, Subcommittee SC 2, Calculation methods.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 6946:1996), which has been technically revised.
It also incorporates the Amendment ISO 6946:1996/Amd.1:2003.
The following changes have been made to the first edition:
⎯ information on the calculation of heat flow rates has been transferred from the Introduction to the note in
Clause 4;
⎯ 5.3.3 provides an amended basis for slightly ventilated air layers;
⎯ 5.4.2 provides clarification of the applicability of Table 3;
⎯ 5.4.3 has been completely revised;
⎯ 6.2.1 provides a new text to allow calculation of a component that is part of a complete element; it also
clarifies exceptions and the limit of applicability;
⎯ Annex B provides additional data for other temperature differences across cavities; it also provides a
correction to the formula for radiation transfer in divided airspaces;
⎯ Annex C contains an additional shape;
⎯ D.2 has been completely rewritten to clarify the intentions, the former Annex E having been deleted
(national annexes can be attached to this International Standard giving examples in accordance with local
building traditions);
⎯ D.3 provides a revised procedure for mechanical fasteners, including recessed fasteners;
⎯ D.4 does not apply in cooling situations.

Introduction
This International Standard provides the means (in part) to assess the contribution that building products and
services make to energy conservation and to the overall energy performance of buildings.
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 6946:2007(E)
Building components and building elements — Thermal
resistance and thermal transmittance — Calculation method
1 Scope
This International Standard provides the method of calculation of the thermal resistance and thermal
transmittance of building components and building elements, excluding doors, windows and other glazed units,
curtain walling, components which involve heat transfer to the ground, and components through which air is
designed to permeate.
The calculation method is based on the appropriate design thermal conductivities or design thermal
resistances of the materials and products for the application concerned.
The method applies to components and elements consisting of thermally homogeneous layers (which can
include air layers).
This International Standard also provides an approximate method that can be used for elements containing
inhomogeneous layers, including the effect of metal fasteners, by means of a correction term given in
Annex D. Other cases where insulation is bridged by metal are outside the scope of this International
Standard.
