One air cell in the direction of heat flow.
*The 6-in.. 8-in. and 10-in hollow tile figures are based on two cells in the direction of heatiflow. The 12-in. hollow tile is based on three ceils in the direction of heat flow. The 16-in. hollow tile consists of one 10-in. and one 6-in. tile, each having two cells in the direction of heat flow.
and hence, the amount of heat absorbed by radiation by each square foot of roof surface is less than is given off by radiation by each square foot of ceiling surface.
Example 2. Determine the combined coefficient of transmission of a roof constructed of asbestos shingles applied over wood sheathing on rafters,' an unheated attic; and a wood lath and plaster ceiling, based on a roof having a'one-third pitch, for which the value of n is 1.2.

If the uriheated attic space between the roof and ceiling has no dormers, windows or vertical wall surfaces, the combined coefficients may be used for determining the heat loss through the roof construction between the attic and top-floor ceiling, but it should be noted that these coefficients
