U = combined coefficient'to be used with ceiling area. Ur = confident of transmission of the roof. Uca = coefficient of transmission of the ceiling. n = the ratio of the area of the roof to the area of the ceiling.
*Use ceiling area (not roof area) with these coefficients.
Coefficients in Columns D,' E and F may be used with sufficient accuracy for tile, slate and rigid asbestos shingles on wood sheathing.

isolated cases when conditions conducive to such condensation exist. The probability of condensation increases with the relative humidity or vapor pressure and with the temperature difference and, in the case of inter stitial condensation, decreases with the vapor resistance on the warm
side of the wall. Condensation on interior building surfaces10 (surface condensation) may
be eliminated by either reducing the relative humidity or by maintaining the interior surfaces at or above the dew-point temperature. Permissible relative humidities for various wall, roof or glass coefficients and tempera ture differences may be`determined from Fig. 2. The permissible relative humidity for any specific type of construction may be determined by first ascertaining the coefficient of transmission (Z7) of the construction and then locating this coefficient on the horizontal scale of Fig. 2. A vertical line drawn to the proper outside temperature curve and then to,., the left hand scale will indicate the permissible relative humidity for the conditions involved. The dotted line shown in Fig. 2 indicates the per missible relative humidity (64 per cent) if surface condensation is to be avoided, for a frame wall having a coefficient of 0.26 and for an outside
temperature of --10 F. Condensation within the construction may likewise be prevented by
eliminating the moisture at the source or by providing a barrier on the
