Slab Edge Insulation AI
AI design of slab edge insulation for thermal performance.
Definition
Slab Edge Insulation AI optimizes slab edge insulation details to reduce heat loss at the building foundation. It analyzes thermal performance, moisture management, and structural interfaces to design slab edge assemblies that meet energy code requirements.
In Depth
Slab edge insulation prevents thermal bridging where concrete floor slabs extend to the building exterior — a common source of energy loss and condensation in cold climates. AI analyzes the thermal performance at slab edge conditions, calculating the surface temperature to verify that condensation risk is mitigated and the energy code requirements are met.
