This table may be used for determining the coefficients of transmission of frame constructions with
the types and thicknesses of insulation indicated in Columns A to D inclusive between framing. Columns
A, B and C may be used for walls, ceilings or roofs with only one air space between framing but are not.
applicable to ceilings with no flooring above.- (See Table 11.) Column D is applicable to walls only.
Example: Find the coefficient of transmission of a frame wall consisting of wood siding, in. insulating
board sheathing, studs,(gypsum lath and plaster, with 2 in. blanket insulation between studs.' -According
to Table 5. a^wall of this construction with no insulation between studs has a coefficient of 0.19 (Wall No.
4D). Referring to Column B above, it will be found that a wall of this value with 2 in. blanket insulation
between the studs has a coefficient of 0.034;
...
Coefficients corrected for 2x4 framing, 16 in. on centers--15 per cent of surface area.
Based on one air space between framing. '

Table 7. Coefficients of Transmission (U) of Masonry Walls
Coefficients are expressed in Btu per (hour) (square foot) (Fahrenheit degree difference in temperature between the air on the two sides), and are based on an outside wind velocity of 16 mph.
Based on 4 in. hard brick and remainder common brick. The 8 in. and 10 in. tile figures are based on two cells in the direction of heat flow. The 12 in. tile is based on three cells in the direction of heat flow. -The 16 in. tile consists of one 10 in. and one 6 in. tile each having two cells in the direction of heat flow.
Limestone or sandstone. *These figures may be used with sufficient accuracy for concrete walls with stucco exterior finish.
