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.

— type C with pipes embedded in the screed (see Figure 2 and A.2.2);
— type D plane section systems (see A.2.4).

This calculation method is given in Annex A for the following five types of system:

— type II: pipes included in thermal insulation layer with additional thermal conduction layer (see
Figure 3);
— type III: capillary tubes directly included in a thermal diffusion layer (see Figure 4);
— type IV: pipes with a thermal reflection layer and an air gap to floor covering (see Figure 5);
— type V: pipes included directly in the structural construction (TABS) (see Figure 6).

permissible difference between surface temperature and indoor room temperature (9 K or 15 K,
respectively; see Table A.21) is achieved.
