EN 1745:2002 (E)5IntroductionThis standard provides rules for the determination of design values for thermal conductivity andthermal resistance of both masonry and masonry products.It also describes how the basic values for the calculation of design thermal values are determined andalso the calculation methods to derive design values from basic values. It covers solid masonry units(clauses 4 and 5) and masonry units with formed voids and composite masonry units (clause 6).Three procedures for the determination of thermal resistance and/or thermal conductivity aredescribed. These procedures are: To use tabulated lambda - and/or R-values. To measure the lambda - and/or R-value. To calculate the equivalent lambda - and/or R-value.It takes into account the major different types of masonry products: Solid masonry units. Masonry units with formed voids. Composite masonry units.The design value of a product characteristic is the value determined for specific application and foruse in calculations.Design thermal values are determined, according to the procedure given in this standard by theuser/designer and building authority according to the intended application, environmental and climaticconditions, bearing in mind the purpose of this determination, such as: energy consumption; design of heating and cooling equipment; surface temperature determination; compliance with national building codes; consideration of non steady state thermal conditions in buildings.A specific building product can have different design thermal values according to the intendedapplication. Normally the producers/distributors will supply design values for their products.SIST EN 1745:2004

EN 1745:2002 (E)9The basic -values of solid masonry units and of mortars can be determined from tests carried out onsamples of the material or from tables or graphs which relate 10,dry to density. In both cases the-value is to be representative of the material as defined in the product standard.From these basic -values, design RU - or U -values can be calculated, taking into account the influenceof moisture.The design RU- or U-values of masonry built from solid masonry units can be determined from tables orfrom tests carried out on masonry samples or from calculations.4.2 Basic -values for solid masonry units and mortars4.2.1 Tabulated -values (determination based on -density relation only)10,dry-values for different materials used for masonry products are given in annex A, differentiated bythe type of material and the dry density of the material. This annex also contains values for the watervapour diffusion coefficient, the specific heat and the moisture coefficient, which describes theincrease of
per percent increase of moisture content.These tabulated values are valid for materials where there is production control of density but no directlymeasured -values. The values are given as 50 % and 90 % fractiles (P) of the existing range of -valuesfor a certain material for a given density.4.2.2 Measured -values (determination based on -density relation and initial type testing of)When a manufacturer decides to determine a -value from test measurement, the following procedureshall be used:4.2.2.1 Test specimensTake detailed information about test specimens from ISO 8302 and from prEN 12664.NOTECare should be taken that the test specimens are representative of the masonry product itself. Anappropriate way to ensure this, is to cut specimens from masonry units.4.2.2.2 Conditioning of specimensNormally masonry materials are tested in a dry condition. It is also possible to carry out tests in amoist condition (e.g. conditioned to constant mass in an environment of 23 °C
2 °C and 50 %
5 %relative humidity), in which case the measured value has to be converted to the dry state.4.2.2.3 Test measurementUse as the reference test method ISO 8302. More detailed information about the testing procedure formasonry materials is given in prEN 12664.Alternative test methods, such as ISO 8301, which may require different test specimens and differentconditioning methods, may be used, if the correlation between the reference test method and thealternative method can be given.4.2.2.4 The determination of the basic -valueThe determination of the basic -value is based on the mean -value and the limit -value. Threeitems of information are necessary for this determination procedure:SIST EN 1745:2004



EN 1745:2002 (E)101) The tabulated -density-correlation for the given material (see annex A).2) The product density range, which can be derived either from the production history or fromthe density tolerances which are given in the relevant product standards.3) At least three individual test measurements on density and i, which shall ensure that thebasic -value is representative for the current material produced. The three tests have to becarried out on specimens from different production batches to represent the manufacturedproduct density range. These three measurements are used to determine the distance of theindividual -density-curve, for a defined production, from the tabulated -density curve.Then use the following procedure:Calculate the arithmetic mean value of the 3 -results.Measure the density of each of the three samples in accordance with EN 772-4 or EN 772-13 orEN 1015-10 and calculate the arithmetic mean value of the 3 results.Through the point A representing mean thermal conductivity and mean density draw a /density-curveparallel to the general /density-curve obtained from plotting the tabulated - and density-values forthe product (material) given in annex A.Derive the mean -value of the product from the average density. Derive the upper and lower limitvalues as the values that represent 90 % and 10 % of the manufactured product density range with aconfidence level of 90 % according to EN ISO 10456.Express the basic -value as the mean -value together with the difference between the limit and themean value.Figure 1 shows this process in the form of a graph.SIST EN 1745:2004

EN 1745:2002 (E)125 Procedures to determine design thermal values (RU or equivalent U) ofmasonry built from solid masonry units and mortar5.1 Test measurementsIf a manufacturer decides to determine RU or equivalent U-values from test measurements, thefollowing procedure shall be used: Select test samples from 3 different production batches. From each of these batches erect one wall. Measure the thermal resistance and/or the equivalent thermal conductivity on each of thosewalls, following EN ISO 8990 or EN 1934. Calculate the mean thermal resistance and/or equivalent thermal conductivity from the 3 testresults. Obtain the design value for the thermal resistance and/or the equivalent thermal conductivity ofthe masonry wall on the basis of this mean value, taking into account the design moisturecontents given nationally.Quote the masonry unit type and its respective EN from EN 771 series, the accompanying unit mass(dry mass or mass at the nationally given design moisture content) and the geometry of the testspecimens as well as the thermal conductivity and the geometry (e.g. twin strip) of the mortar jointused for the measurement.For the calculation of RU or equivalent U-values at any other design moisture contents, it is necessaryto cater for the influence of moisture. The values for the moisture correction coefficients can bederived from tests, carried out at several moisture contents. Alternatively the moisture correctioncoefficient can be taken from national documents. If neither of these possibilities exists, use amoisture correction coefficient for all types of materials and geometries of 6 %, (i.e. the thermalresistance of the masonry changes 6 % per volume percent change of moisture).If there are unit types that are usually combined with different mortar types, provide thermal values forall these combinations.NOTEAs an approximation the measured values with low thermal insulation mortar may be converted to acorresponding value with high thermal insulation mortar and vice versa by a simple mean value calculation of thethermal coupling factors (1/R) according to the area ratio of mortar joints and units, provided that the ratio of thethermal resistances of the masonry unit layer and the mortar layer is not more than 1:5.5.2 Calculation methods5.2.1 GeneralDetermine the -values of the materials, which are necessary input parameters for calculationmethods, either according to 4.2.1 or 4.2.2.Determine the RU- or equivalent U-value of the masonry according to the following procedure:basic -value (10,dry)

U-value of the material calculation RU- or equivalent U-value of the masonry.SIST EN 1745:2004



EN 1745:2002 (E)13The moisture correction coefficients for materials given in annex A shall be used.5.2.2 Numerical calculationThe requirements for appropriate calculation programs (accuracy, boundary conditions, etc.) are givenin annex D.NOTENumerical calculation procedures (e.g. Finite Element Method or Finite Difference Method, etc.) leadto accurate calculation results, even where there are large differences between the lambda-values of the unitmaterial and the masonry mortar.5.2.3 Simplified calculationThe method described in EN ISO 6946:1996 may be used.6 Procedures to determine design thermal values (RU or equivalent U) formasonry units with formed voids and composite masonry units and for wallsbuilt from such units and mortar6.1 GeneralThe thermal properties of masonry units with formed voids cannot fully be determined from thelambda-value of the material, there is also a high influence from the shape and the geometry of theholes in the unit.The RU- or equivalent U-values of masonry built from masonry units with formed voids can bedetermined either from tables or from test measurements carried out on masonry samples or fromcalculations. The RU- or equivalent U-values of masonry built from composite masonry units can bedetermined either from test measurements carried out on masonry samples or from calculations.6.2 RU- or equivalent U-values of masonry units with formed voids and compositemasonry unitsAt present there are several different numerical methods in use (e.g. Finite Difference, Finite Element)for the calculation of the thermal properties of masonry units with formed voids or composite masonryunits. The thermal conductivities of the materials are necessary input parameters for suchcalculations, and these have to be determined according to 4.3.The requirements for appropriate calculation programs (accuracy, boundary conditions, etc.) are givenin annex C.The method described in EN ISO 6946:1996 may also be used.6.3 RU- or equivalent U-values of masonry built from masonry units with formedvoids or composite masonry units and mortar6.3.1 Tabulated values6.3.1.1 Application of annex BExamples for basic values for the determination of RU- or equivalent U-values of masonry built frommasonry units with formed voids are given in annex B, differentiated by: material;SIST EN 1745:2004



EN 1745:2002 (E)14 geometry of the units and geometry of formed voids; -value of the material of the masonry units; -value of the mortar.No tabulated values for composite masonry units are given in annex B.The tabulated basic R- or equivalent -values should be taken as the basis for the calculation of anynational design values, which are dependent on the climatic conditions and the application. Thevalues for the moisture correction coefficients can be derived from tests, carried out at severalmoisture contents. Alternatively the moisture correction coefficients can be taken from nationaldocuments. If such values do not exist, the moisture correction coefficient for all types of materialsand geometries should be taken as 6 % (i.e. the thermal resistance of the masonry changes 6 % pervolume percent change of moisture). It is also possible to determine a design value by correcting the-value of each material for moisture using the correction coefficients given in annex A and consultingthe tables in annex B for RU- or equivalent U of the masonry.The values for the thermal conductivity of the materials are 10,dry-values. If no measured values areavailable for the thermal conductivity of the masonry units material and the mortar, the tabulatedvalues from annex A may be used.Linear interpolation may be used for material conductivities between the values given in the tables inannex B.6.3.1.2 Alternative application of annex BThe tabulated values have been calculated assuming a certain height and length of the masonryunits, a certain thickness of the horizontal mortar joints and no mortar in the vertical joints (the "basicdimensions" are given for each geometry class). For masonry built from units with a different height,the influence of the mortar joints may be taken into account as follows. The same procedure may beused to determine values for masonry with vertical mortar joints in those cases where no separatevalues are given. These methods are valid for all available masonry units.Calculate the U-value of the masonry from the equivalent thermal conductivity in the table using theformula:whereUTis the thermal transmittance of the wall, in W/m2KRsi, Rseare the internal and external surface resistance in m2K/W according to EN ISO 6946dis the thickness of the wall in mequis the tabulated value of the equivalent thermal conductivity of the wall in W/(mK)Calculate the thermal transmittance of the masonry units without mortar as follows:RdRUseequsiT+
