Thermal transmission in insulated area: U=0.55 W/m²K

Thermal transmission around tie: U= 4.10 W/m²K

Average thermal transmission through panel: U= 1.58 W/m²K

Thermal transmission in insulated area: U=0.55 W/m²K

Thermal transmission around conncetor: U= 1.86 W/m²K

Average thermal transmission through panel: U= 0.60 W/m²K

The average thermal transmission of a well insulated sandwich panel with steel ties is more than two and a half times greater than that of a panel with THERMOMASS connectors. The transmission rate ist sustantially worse in panels which are not insulated and have concrete seams with metal re-inforcements linking the layers. ONLY the THERMOMASS system ensures that 99 % of the design value of the thermal insulation performance of a building can be achieved.
