Foreword
The text of EN ISO 10211-2:2001 has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 89
"Thermal performance of buildings and building components", the secretariat of which is held by
SIS, in collaboration with Technical Committee ISO/TC 163 "Thermal insulation",
subcommittee 2 "Calculation methods".
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of
an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by September 2001, and conflicting national
standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2001.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of
the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg,
Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
This standard consists of two parts. The title of part 1 is "Thermal bridges in building
construction - Calculation of heat flows and surface temperatures - Part 1: General methods".
This standard is one of a series of standards on calculation methods for the design and
evaluation of the thermal performance of buildings and building components.
Introduction
Part 1 of this standard gives general methods for the calculation of heat flows and surface
temperatures of thermal bridges of arbitrary shape and with an arbitrary number of boundary
conditions. This part deals with linear thermal bridges bounded by two different thermal
environments. For the calculation of surface temperatures, a third boundary temperature applies
only if the thermal bridge is in thermal contact with the ground.
A linear thermal bridge can be represented by its cross-section, which provides the basis for a
two-dimensional geometrical model.
As the two-dimensional model is a simplification of the real construction, the calculation results
are approximations of the results calculated with a three-dimensional model according to EN ISO
10211-1:1995. The errors due to this simplification are related to the length of the linear thermal
bridge which is often not specified. The calculation methods given in part 2 are termed "Class B"
methods in order to distinguish them from the "Class A" methods given in part 1.
Although similar calculation procedures are used, the procedures are not identical for the
calculation of heat flows and of surface temperatures.
Part 2 of this standard lays down criteria which have to be satisfied in order that a calculation
method for linear thermal bridges can be described as being "Class B".
Part 2 can be used for the calculation of the linear thermal transmittance of the linear thermal
bridge.
Part 2 does not provide reliable results for the assessment of surface condensation. Although
accurate internal surface temperatures can be calculated with a two dimensional model, the
actual minimum surface temperature can be lower,as a result of other linear or point thermal
bridges in the vicinity.

---------------------- Page: 4 ----------------------

EN ISO 10211-2:2001
At the intersection of two or three linear thermal bridges a drop of the internal surface
temperature occurs. A method to calculate the lower limiting value of the temperature factor at
the intersection is given in annex B.
1 Scope
This part 2 of the standard gives the specifications for a two-dimensional geometrical model of a
linear thermal bridge for the numerical calculation of:
- the linear thermal transmittance of the linear thermal bridge;
- the lower limit of the minimum surface temperatures.
These specifications include the geometrical boundaries and subdivisions of the model, the
thermal boundary conditions and the thermal values and relationships to be used.
The standard is based upon the following assumptions:
- steady-state conditions apply;
- all physical properties are independent of temperature;
- there are no heat sources within the building element;
- only one internal thermal environment applies;
- one or two external thermal environments apply.
A second external thermal environment only applies when surface temperatures are calculated
and the soil is a part of the geometrical model. In that case the temperature at the horizontal cut-
off plane in the soil is the second external thermal environment.
2 Normative references
This European Standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other
publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the
publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions
of any of these publications apply to this standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or
revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies
(including amendments).

4 Rules for modelling
4.1 Cut-off planes of the geometrical model
The geometrical model includes the 2-D central element, the 2-D flanking elements and, where
appropriate, the subsoil. The geometrical model is delimited by cut-off planes.
Cut-off planes shall be positioned as follows:
- at least 1 m from the central element if there is no nearer symmetry plane (see Figure 2);
- at a symmetry plane if this is less than 1 m from the central element (see Figure 3);
- in the ground according to Table 1 (see Figure 4).

4.2 Adjustments to dimensions
Adjustments to the dimensions of the geometrical model with respect to the geometry as
specified in the architectural drawing are only allowed if they have no significant influence on the
result of the calculation; this can be assumed if the conditions of 5.2.1 of
EN ISO 10211-1:1995 are satisfied.
Point thermal bridges that may be part of the architectural drawing (e.g. screws) should be
ignored. The thermal effect of distributed point thermal bridges should be incorporated into the
thermal conductivity of the material layers according to clause 5 of EN ISO 10211-1:1995.
4.3 Auxiliary planes
Planes which are necessary to separate blocks of different materials are called construction
planes. Planes which are neither construction planes nor cut-off planes are called auxiliary
planes.
The number of auxiliary planes in the model shall be such that doubling the number of
subdivisions does not change the linear coupling coefficient by more than 2 %, otherwise further
subdivisions shall be made until this criterion is met.

NOTE this requirement is in many cases fulfilled when the distance between adjacent parallel planes

does not exceed the following values
(see Figure 5):
- within the central element 25 mm;
- within the flanking elements, measured from the construction plane which separates the central element
 from the flanking element: 25, 25, 50, 50, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000 and 4000 mm.
