5. Corrections. For temperature difference when outdoor maximum design temperature minus-room is dif ferent from 15 deg. If the outdoor design temperature minus room temperature is different from the base of 15 deg, correct m follows: When the difference is greater (or less) than 15 deg add the excess to (or subtract the deficiency from) the above differentials.
Pot outdoor daily range of temperature other than SO deg. If the daily range of temperature is less.than 20 deg, add 1 deg for every 2 deg lower daily range; if the daily range is greater than 20 aeg, substract 1 deg for every 2 deg higher daily range. For example, the daily range in Miami, Florida is 12 deg or 8 deg less than 20 deg, therefore, the correction is 4 deg at all hours of the day.
Light Colors. Credit should not be taken for light colored roofs except where the permanence of the light color is established by experience, as in rural areas or where there is little smoke. When the exterior surface of roof exposed to the sun is a light color, such as white or aluminum (which absorb approximately 50 percent and reflect 50 percent of the solar radiation) add to the. temperature differential for roof in shade 55 percent of the difference between the roof in sun and roof in shade. When the roof exposed to the sun is a medium color such as light grey, blue or green, or bright red, add 80 percent of this difference.
For solar transmission in latitudes other than 40 deg north, and in other months. The table values of tern* perature differentials will be approximately correct for a roof in the following months:

For other months, the total temperature differential (lx) may be approximated by the use of the following formula:

where la = temperature differential for the same roof in shade for desired time of day; obtained from Table fy = maximum solar transmission through glass, Btu per (hr) (sq ft) for flat skylight in July, 40 deg north latitude (Note: this is maximum value irrespective of time). ~ same as ly except use the maximum value for flat skylight, for month, and latitude desired for txtv ~ temperature differential for particular roof exposed to sun for the desired time of day from Table
(Note that this makes adjustment only for solar radiation and that there may be additional correction for outtemperature.)
air temperature t, is the temperature of the outdoor air, which, in the absence of all radiation exchanges, would give the same rate of heat entry mto the surface as would exist with the actual combination of incident solar radiation, radiant energy exchange with the sky and other outdoor sur roundings, and convective heat exchange with the outdoor air.
The sol-air temperature data5'610 as developed by Mackey and Wright
or an industrial atmosphere were used as a basis for preparing Table 8 snowing summer design sol-air temperatures. Sol-air temperatures may
so be estimated from experimental observation of surface temperatures walls and roofs which appear in the literature.11-12 Both analytical and xpenmental studies have been made on the problem10 of heat flow through ** an(i roofs. Those concerned with a further study of the details of
