Impact of the position of the window in the reveal of a cavity wall on the heat loss and the internal surface temperature of the head of an opening with a steel lintel (2017)
Journal Article
Sierra, F., Gething, B., Bai, J., & Maksoud, T. (2017). Impact of the position of the window in the reveal of a cavity wall on the heat loss and the internal surface temperature of the head of an opening with a steel lintel. Energy and Buildings, 142, 23-30. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2017.02.037

© 2017 Elsevier B.V. The interface between the head of the window and the wall represents one of the largest thermal bridges of a building and one of the areas with the highest risk of surface condensation. This paper confirmed the importance, and in...

Analysis of residents' approaches to heat(ing) in their homes (allowable solutions Hanham Hall report of key findings)
Report
Oliveira, S., Marco, E., & Gething, B. Analysis of residents' approaches to heat(ing) in their homes (allowable solutions Hanham Hall report of key findings)

Household energy use accounts for almost 60% across the EU and more than a quarter of all energy used in the UK (Palmer and Cooper, 2013). Space heating accounts for almost 67% of energy consumption across average European homes (Odyssee-Mure 2015) a...
