The air temperature at. the mean height of inside walls is greater, than at breathing line. Mean height of walls is 16 -5- 2 = 8 ft., which 8 -- 5 = 3 ft. above breathing line. Allowing 2 per cent per foot above 5 ft., or 2X3 = 6 per cent, makes the mean.air temperature 1.06 X 60 = 63.6 deg. fahr. The triangular areas in the end wall are practically at the mean height of the roof at which level the air temperature is 78' deg. fahr.
Roof: 3 in. concrete (stone), with slag surface built-up roofing.
U = 0.610 (Roof No. 216-c, Table 11-A)

Chapter I--Heat Losses from Buildings
The air temperature just below roof is higher than that at the breathing line. Mean height of roof is 16 + 4 = 20 ft., or it is 20 -- 5 = 15 ft. above breathing line. Allowing 2 per cent per foot above 5 ft., or 2 X 15 = 30 per cent, makes the under roof temperature = 1.30 X 60 = 78 deg.
fahr. Floor: The 5 in. concrete floor is laid on the ground, and hence there is
only one surface coefficient K, = 1.34 = Average for surface in still air

The air temperature at floor level^= 60 -- 5 =.55 deg. fahr.
Windows and Doors: Wood|satl and doors with/ single thickness of glass. Take coefficient U for glass as it 13 B.t.u. per sq. ft. per degree per hour for heat transmission (Table 13-A). Doors are solid wood 2 in. thick and coefficient U ,= 0^582 B.t.u. per sq. ft. per degree per hour
