Feasibility study of building envelopes selection for low-rise construction

Optimal selection of different types of building envelopes for low-rise construction is a key issue in effective implementation of Regional Programs of Low-rise Housing. When studying this issue the area of construction and ways of transportation should be taken into consideration. In the present paper calculation of minimum thickness and cost per square meter of different variants of load bearing building envelopes was performed at the same thickness of insulant and minimum heat transfer resistance. Comparative analysis was performed providing data on choice of materials for different types of construction.
