EXAMPLE OF USE

Scenario I - method of accounting linear thermal bridges

1. Editing the default data:
   • In the window, , tab choose for the . Note: this method is available for the EN standards;
   • (Optionally) for the . This causes the auto mode status to be set for all fields of the () column, available on the form / , with the following default values:
     • = 0.05 - for the external partitions (, , , , ) and for thr partitions in contact with the ground (, );
     • = 0.00 - for the internal partitions (, , , ).
       

       

       2. column with "auto mode" status.

       
       
   • (Optionally) Introducing - available for the DIN standards.
2. Editing the :
   • Select the method of determine () in the form / :
     

     

     3. .

     
     
     • User's - allows to set the value of the allowance by yourself;
     • Automaticaly - initialises the default values according to the auto mode;
     • - = 0.05 ;
     • - = 0.1 .

Scenario II - method of accounting linear thermal bridges

1. Editing the default data:
   • In the window, , tab choose for the . Note: this method is available for the EN standards.
2. Editing the :
   • Select the method of determine () in the form / , just like in Scenario I - Simplified method of accounting linear thermal bridges.

Scenario III - method of accounting linear thermal bridges

1. Editing the default data:
   • In the window, , tab choose for the . Note: this method is available for the EN standards.
2. Definition of default types of the linear thermal bridges:
   • After making the of linear thermal bridges will be available in the () scope. Open , and define the default types in for each field choosing from the offered list. Note: One definition per bridge type is available by default.

2. Editing the :
   • Select the method of determine () in the form / , just like in Scenario I - Simplified method of accounting linear thermal bridges.
