10. Construction: Walls--12-in. brick, with J-in. plaster applied directly to inside surface. ' Roof--3-in. stone concrete and built-up roofing. Floor--5-in. stone concrete on 3-in. cinder concrete on dirt. Doors--One 12 ft. x 12 ft. wood door (2 in. thick) at each end. Windows--Fifteen, 9 ft. x 16 ft. single glass double-hung windows on each side.
11. Transmission coefficients: Walls--(Table 9, Chapter 3)............................... .............................. U = 0.277 Roof--(Table 29, Chapter 3)._............................................................ U = 0.610 Floor--(Table 28, Chapter 3)..............................,,..................... ....... U = 0.521 Doors--(Table 33B, Chapter 3)......................................................... U = 0.382 Windows--(Table 33A, Chapter 3)--................ .............................. U = 1.13
12. Infiltration coefficients: Windows--Crack assumed Yi in. The leakage per foot of crack for an 11-mile wind velocity is 92.7 cu. ft. per hour, for a plain window. (By interpolation from Table 2, Chapter 4). The heat equivalent per hour per degree is 92.7 X 0.075 X 0.24 = 1.67 B.t.u. Doors--Assume infiltration loss through door crack twice that of windows or 2 X 1.67 = 3.34 B.t.u.
13. Calculations: See calculation sheet, Table 6.

^Windows weatherstripped. . ^Chimney figured as part of wall, that is, of the same construction.
cTransmission coefficient taken same as glass for entire door. dThree^sides of this room are exposed and therefore only the wall having the greatest infiltration loss is used in estimating the total leakage for the room. If the infiltration loss for the south side of the room con taining the two outside doors had been less than half the total infiltration loss for the room, then half the total leakage would have been used. Air temperature at floor assumed 65 deg. fahr. Air temperature in basement assumed 32 deg. fahr.
