1 im GENERL The aim of this Code is to assist architects and professional engineers to comply with the envelope thermal performance standards prescribed in the Building Regulations. 2 Scope This Code covers the following Envelope Thermal Performance Standards: i. Envelope Thermal Transfer Value (ETTV) for air-conditioned nonresidential buildings ii. Roof Thermal Transfer Value (RTTV) for air-conditioned nonresidential buildings (with skylight) iii. Residential Envelope Transmittance Value (RETV) for residential buildings iv. Roof insulation for air-conditioned non-residential buildings (without skylight) and residential buildings 3 Background 3.1. Since 1979, the Building Control Regulations had prescribed an envelope thermal performance standard know as Overall Thermal Transfer Value (OTTV). The OTTV standard applied only to air-conditioned nonresidential buildings. 3.2. major review of the OTTV formula was carried out in the early 2 to provide a more accurate measure of the thermal performance of building envelope. The new formula is given the name Envelope Thermal Transfer Value (ETTV) to differentiate it from the original OTTV formula. 3.3. similar review of the OTTV formula for roof was also conducted and a new formula, known as Roof Thermal Transfer Value (RTTV), replaces the Roof OTTV formula. 3.4. The ETTV requirement does not apply to non air-conditioned buildings such as residential buildings that are designed to be naturally ventilated. However, as it becomes increasingly common for residential buildings to be air-conditioned, there is a need to regulate the design of their envelopes so that heat gain into the interior spaces and hence air-conditioning energy used can be minimised. 3.5. Based on the results of a NUS study commissioned by BC, the ETTV concept was extended in 28 to cover residential buildings. s the airconditioners in residential buildings are usually turned on in the night, the 5
envelope thermal performance standard for residential buildings is given the name Residential Envelope Transmittance Value (RETV) so as to differentiate it from ETTV, which is meant for buildings that operate the airconditioning system during the day. 6
ENVELOPE THERML TRNSFER VLUE (ETTV) 4 Envelope Thermal Transfer Value (ETTV) 4.1 The ETTV takes into account the three basic components of heat gain through the external walls and windows of a building. These are: heat conduction through opaque walls, heat conduction through glass windows, solar radiation through glass windows. 4.2 These three components of heat input are averaged over the whole envelope area of the building to give an ETTV that represents the thermal performance of the whole envelope. For the purpose of energy conservation, the maximum permissible ETTV has been set at 5 W/m 2. 5 Envelope Thermal Transfer Value (ETTV) Formula 5.1 The ETTV formula is given as follows: ETTV = 12(1 WWR)Uw + 3.4(WWR)U f + 211(WWR)(CF)(SC) where ETTV : envelope thermal transfer value (W/m 2 ) WWR : window-to-wall ratio (fenestration area / gross area of exterior wall) U w : thermal transmittance of opaque wall (W/m 2 K) U f : thermal transmittance of fenestration (W/m 2 K) CF : correction factor for solar heat gain through fenestration SC : shading coefficients of fenestration 5.2 Where more than one type of material and/or fenestration is used, the respective term or terms shall be expanded into sub-elements as shown: 12( ETTV = 3.4( 211( w1 f1 U U f1 w1 f1 SC + + f1 w2 f 2 + U U f 2 o o f 2 w2 + SC +... f 2 o... + + U where w1, w2, wn : areas of different opaque wall (m 2 ) f1, f2, fn : areas of different fenestration (m 2 ) o : gross area of the exterior wall (m 2 ) U w1, U w2, U wn : thermal transmittances of opaque walls (W/m 2 K) +... fn wn U + fn fn wn ) + ) + SC fn )(CF) 7
U f1, U f2, U fn : thermal transmittances of fenestrations (W/m 2 K) SC f1, SC f2, SC fn : shading coefficients of fenestrations CF : correction factor for solar heat gain through fenestration 5.3 s walls at different orientations receive different amounts of solar radiation, it is necessary in general to first compute the ETTVs of individual walls, then the ETTV of the whole building envelope is obtained by taking the weighted average of these values. To calculate the ETTV for the envelope of the whole building, the following formula shall be used: ETTV = o1 ETTV1 + o1 ETTV + + o2 o2 2 +...... + + on on + ETTV where o1, o2, on : gross areas of the exterior wall for each orientation (m 2 ) 5.4 The solar correction factors for eight primary orientations of the walls have been determined for the Singapore climate. They are given in Table C1. 5.4.1 If the wall is curved, the eight primary orientations are segmented as follows: N NW NE N W N E n SW N S SE N 8
ROOF THERML TRNSFER VLUE (RTTV) 6 Roof Thermal Transfer Value (RTTV) 6.1 If the roof of an air-conditioned building is provided with skylight, the ETTV concept is also applicable to its roof. To differentiate between the walls and the roof, the term Roof Thermal Transfer Value (RTTV) is used instead. Similarly, RTTV takes into consideration the three basic components of heat gain through the opaque roof and skylight. These are: heat conduction through opaque roof, heat conduction through skylight, solar radiation through skylight. 6.2 The maximum permissible RTTV has also been set at 5 W/m 2. 7 Roof Thermal Transfer Value (RTTV) Formula 7.1 The RTTV formula is given as follows: RTTV = 12.5(1 SKR)Ur + 4.8(SKR)U s + 485(SKR)(CF)(SC) where RTTV : roof thermal transfer value (W/m 2 ) SKR : skylight ratio of roof (skylight area / gross area of roof) U r : thermal transmittance of opaque roof (W/m 2 K) U s : thermal transmittance of skylight area (W/m 2 K) CF : solar correction factor for roof SC : shading coefficient of skylight portion of the roof 7.2 Similarly, when more than one type of material and or skylight is used, the respective term or terms shall be expanded into sub-elements, such as; 12.5( RTTV = where 4.8( 485( s1 r1 U U s1 r1 s1 SC + + s1 U r2 s2 o s2 +... + U ) + r1, r2, rn : areas of different opaque roof (m 2 ) s1, s2, sn : areas of different skylight (m 2 ) o : gross area of roof (m 2 ) r2 U s2 + o + SC... s2 o rn + +... sn rn U + sn sn ) + SC sn )(CF) 9

RESIDENTIL ENVELOPE TRNSMITTNCE VLUE (RETV) 8 Residential Envelope Transmittance Value (RETV) 8.1 The RETV is similar to ETTV in that it takes into consideration the three basic components of heat gain through the external walls and windows of a building. These are: i. heat conduction through opaque walls, ii. heat conduction through glass windows, and iii. solar radiation through glass windows. 8.2 These three components of heat input are averaged over the whole envelope area of the building to give an RETV that represents the thermal performance of the whole envelope. For the purpose of energy conservation, the maximum permissible RETV has been set at 25 W/m 2. 9 Residential Envelope Transmittance Value (RETV) Formula 9.1 The RETV formula is given as follows: RETV = 3.4(1 WWR) U + 1.3( WWR) U 58.6( WWR)( CF)( SC) w f + where RETV : residential envelope transmittance value (W/m 2 ) WWR : window-to-wall ratio (fenestration area/gross area of exterior wall) U w : thermal transmittance of opaque wall (W/m 2 K) U f : thermal transmittance of fenestration (W/m 2 K) CF : correction factor for solar heat gain through fenestration SC : shading coefficients of fenestration 9.2 Where more than one type of material and/or fenestration is used, the respective term or terms shall be expanded into sub-elements as shown: 3.4( w 1 U w1 + w 2 U w2 +... + RETV = 1.3( f 1 58.6( U f 1 f 1 SC + f 1 f 2 + o f 2 o U f 2 + SC f 2 o... + +... wn fn U U + fn wn fn ) + ) + SC fn )( CF) 11
where w1, w2, wn : areas of different opaque walls (m 2 ) f1, f2, fn : areas of different fenestrations (m 2 ) o : gross area of the exterior wall (m 2 ) U w1, U w2, U wn : thermal transmittances of opaque walls (W/m 2 K) U f1, U f2, U fn : thermal transmittances of fenestrations (W/m 2 K) SC f1, SC f2, SC fn : shading coefficients of fenestrations 9.3 The external façades of the living, dining, study and bedrooms are considered in the RETV computation. s walls at different orientations receive different amounts of solar radiation, it is necessary in general to first compute the RETVs of individual walls, then the RETV of the whole building envelope is obtained by taking the weighted average of these values. To calculate the RETV for the envelope of the whole building, the following formula shall be used: RETV = o1 RETV1 + o2 o1 RETV + + o2 + + +...... 2 on on + RETV where o1, o2, on : gross areas of the exterior wall for each orientation (m 2 ) 9.4 The solar correction factors for walls are given in Table C3. For an example of the orientation of the wall, please refer to section 5.4.1. n 1 Deem-to-Satisfy Criteria for RETV 1.1 Should the building s WWR and SC 1 fall within any one of the following sets of criteria, the building is deemed to have complied with RETV and; hence, is exempted from computing RETV. WWR Bldg <.3 and SC 1 facade <.7 or WWR Bldg <.4 and SC 1 facade <.5 or WWR Bldg <.5 and SC 1 facade <.43 where WWR : Window to wall ratio SC : Shading coefficient of fenestration = SC Glass X SC shading device Note: This is applicable to buildings with external masonry walls. 1 Each SC of the facade must not exceed the prescribed value. 12
Otherwise detailed RETV computation is required. 13
ROOF INSULTION FOR IR-CONDITIONED NON-RESIDENTIL (WITHOUT SKYLIGHT) ND RESIDENTIL BUILDINGS 11 Thermal Transmittance of Roof 11.1 Solar heat gain into a building through an uninsulated roof increases air temperature indoor. In all buildings, directional radiation received on the roof can be one of the main causes of thermal discomfort. 11.2 For an air-conditioned building, solar heat gain through the roof also constitutes a substantial portion of the cooling load. From on-site solar radiation measurements taken in Singapore, the intensity of radiation on a horizontal surface can be as much as 3 times of that on a vertical surface. 11.3 The purpose of roof insulation is therefore to conserve energy in airconditioned buildings. The building regulations require that the average thermal transmittance (U-value) for the gross area of the roof shall not exceed the limit in the Table C4 for the corresponding weight group. 11.4 If the roof of an air-conditioned non-residential building is provided with skylight then RTTV computation is required. 14
PPENDIX THERML TRNSMITTNCE (U-VLUE) CLCULTION 1 Thermo-Physical Properties of Building Materials 1.1 Thermal conductivity (k-value) The ability of a material to transmit heat is measured by its thermal conductivity or k-value. The k-value of a material is defined as the quantity of heat transmitted under steady-state conditions through unit area of the material of unit thickness in unit time when unit temperature difference exists between its opposite surfaces. It is expressed in W/m K. Table C5 gives the k-values of some commonly used building materials. 1.2 Thermal resistivity (r) The thermal resistivity of a material is the reciprocal of its thermal conductivity, i.e. 1 r = k It may be defined as the time required for one unit of heat to pass through unit area of a material of unit thickness when unit temperature difference exists between opposite faces. It is expressed as m K/W. 1.3 Thermal conductance (C) Thermal conductance refers to specific thickness of a material or construction. It is the thermal transmission through unit area of a material per unit temperature difference between the hot and cold faces. It is expressed in W/m 2 K and is given by: k C = b where b is the thickness of the material (m) 1.4 Thermal resistance (R) The thermal resistance of a material or construction is the reciprocal of its thermal conductance. It refers to the thermal resistance of any section or assembly of building components and is particularly useful in computing the overall transfer of heat across the building section. It is expressed as m 2 K/W and is given by: R = 1 = C b k 15
2 Thermal Transmittance (U-value) The thermal transmittance or U-value of a construction is defined as the quantity of heat that flows through a unit area of a building section under steady-state conditions in unit time per unit temperature difference of the air on either side of the section. It is expressed in W/m 2 K and is given by: U = 1 R T where R T is the total thermal resistance and is given by: b 1 2 n R T Ro + + + + + k1 k2 kn b =... b R i where R o : air film resistance of external surface (m 2 K/W) R I : air film resistance of internal surface (m 2 K/W) k 1, k 2, k n : thermal conductivity of basic material (W/m K) b 1, b 2, b n : thickness of basic material (m) 3 Surface ir Film Resistance 3.1 The transfer of heat to and from a surface of a body through air is impeded by the presence of a thin layer of relatively motionless air at the surface of the body. This offers resistance to the heat flow and results in a temperature drop across the layer of air. 3.2 Surface air film resistance is affected by wind velocity and therefore different resistance values for outside and inside air films are given. These are defined as follows: R o : outside surface air film resistance (moving air) R i : inside surface air film resistance (still air) 3.3 Table C6 gives the values of surface resistances for walls and roofs at different positions of surface and for different surface emissivity values. 16
4 ir Space Resistance 4.1 ir is a relatively poor conductor of heat. Its presence as a gap between two layers of materials contributes further thermal resistance to the whole construction. The U-value of a building section can therefore be modified as follows: 1 U = and R T b 1 n R T Ro + + + Ra + + + k1 k n where =...... R a : thermal resistance of air space b R i 4.2 Reflective materials such as aluminium foil have high surface reflectivity and low surface emissivity. If a reflective foil is inserted in an air space with its reflective surface facing the space and against the direction of heat flow as shown below, approximately 95% of the radiation will be reflected. This increases the thermal resistance of the air space. 4.3 If the heat flow is reversed as shown below, the result would be the same, as in this case, the low emissivity of the reflective surface emits only about 5% of the absorbed heat as radiant energy. 17
4.4 Table C7 gives the values of air space resistances for walls and roofs at different positions and for different surface emissivity values in the air space. 18
PPENDIX B SHDING COEFFICIENT OF SUN SHDING DEVICES B1 Basic Solar Data B1.1 Solar geometry The position of the sun can be specified by the angles illustrated below: These angles are (i) altitude (α, angle above the horizon) and (ii) azimuth (z, compass orientation of a vertical plane through the sun, measured clockwise from north). The orientation of a wall is the angle measured clockwise from north of a plane normal to the wall and the wall-solar azimuth (τ) is the angle between the two planes. B1.2 Shadow angles For the purpose of finding the shading effect of horizontal projections, fins, louvers, or canopies, the vertical shadow angle (VS) is required. This is the angle (θ 1 ) between two planes viz, the horizontal plane and an inclined plane projected through the sun as illustrated in the diagram below: The vertical shadow angle is given by: tan θ 1 = tan αsec τ 19
where θ 1 : the vertical shadow angle α : the altitude of the sun τ : the wall-solar azimuth To calculate the shading coefficient of vertical fins and projections, the horizontal shadow angle (HS) has to be determined and it is given by the wall-solar azimuth angle (τ), i.e. θ 2 = τ where θ 2 : the horizontal shadow angle B1.3 Intensity of solar radiation To facilitate the calculation of the effective shading coefficient of external shading devices, the intensities of diffuse, direct and total radiation transmitted through a standard 3mm clear glass sheet are tabulated in Tables C8 to C11 together with the horizontal and vertical shadow angles for March, June, September and December. 2
B2 Shading Coefficient B2.1 Basic concept In the RETV formula, the solar factor has been derived from the annual average of solar radiation transmitted through a 3mm clear glass window. For other system of fenestration, the rate of solar heat gain is modified by the shading coefficient of the fenestration system which is defined as the ratio of solar heat gain through the fenestration system having combination of glazing and shading device to the solar heat gain through an unshaded 3mm clear glass. This ratio is a unique characteristic of each type of fenestration system and is represented by the equation: Solar heat gain of any glass and shading combination SC = Solar heat gain through a 3mm unshaded clear glass In general, the shading coefficient of any fenestration system can be obtained by multiplying the shading coefficient of the glass (or effective shading coefficient of glass with solar control film where a solar control film is used on the glass) and the shading coefficient of the sun-shading devices as follows: SC = SC 1 SC 2 where SC : shading coefficient of the fenestration system SC 1 : shading coefficient of glass or effective shading coefficient of glass with solar control film where a solar control film is used on the glass SC 2 : effective shading coefficient of external shading devices Note: 1. For the purpose of RETV calculation, the shading effect offered by internal blind and curtain should be ignored. The shading coefficient of the glass or effective shading coefficient of glass with solar control film should be based on the manufacturer s recommended value. The effective shading coefficient of external shading devices as given in Tables C12 to C23 shall be used unless the type of shading device in question is not included in the tables. In that case, the effective shading coefficient shall be calculated from the basic solar data given in Tables C8 to C11 in accordance with the method specified in Section B2.2. 21
B2.2 Method of calculating effective shading coefficient of external sunshading device B2.2.1 When a window is partially shaded by an external shading device, it is assumed (for simplicity and for the purpose of RETV computation) that the exposed portion receives the total radiation, I T, and the shaded portion receives only the diffuse radiation, I d. The instantaneous heat gain due to solar radiation can then be expressed as follows: Q = = e e I I T D + s + ( I e d + ) I s d where Q : e : s : I T : I D : I d : solar heat gain exposed area of window shaded area of window total radiation direct radiation diffused radiation Since = Q = e Therefore e + I D s + I d For an unshaded 3mm clear glass, the solar heat gain is given by x I T. By definition, the hourly Shading Coefficient, SC, of a shading device can be expressed as: SC = e ID + I I T d where G I = I D T I d e G = the fraction of area exposed to direct solar radiation 22
B2.2.2 To calculate the shading coefficient (SC) of a shading device for the whole day, the hourly solar heat gain shall be computed and summed up for the 12 daylight hours. The total solar heat gain is then divided by the sum of the total radiation, I T, through an unshaded 3mm clear glass for the same hours of the day, to obtain the SC for the day. Mathematically, the computation can be expressed as follows: SC day h= 12 ( e h= 1 = h= 12 h= 1 I D + I ) ( I ) T h d h where subscript day and h refers to daily & hourly respectively. B2.2.3 For simplicity, the SC of a shading device for a particular month can be worked out basing on the solar data for a representative day of the month. B2.2.4 To determine the effective SC of a shading device, theoretically, the computation has to be carried out for 12 months of the year. However, as the computation involved is rather tedious and the degree of accuracy required is not a critical factor, it is deemed sufficient to base the SC computation on 4 representative months of the year, viz. March, June, September and December. The representative days of these 4 months are March 21, June 22, September 23 and December 22. B2.2.5 Further, since the solar data for March 21 and September 23 are almost identical, it suffices to compute the solar heat gain for March and double it to take account of the heat gain for September. Mathematically, the effective SC of a shading device is given by: Effective SC = M (G I D + Id ) + J(G ID + Id ) S(G ID + Id ) + I + I + I + I M T J T S T D T D (G I D + I d ) Where M denotes March J denotes June S denotes September D denotes December B2.2.6 The relevant solar data are given in Tables C8 to C11. B2.3 Determination of G factor The fraction of window area exposed to the sun (G) at any time for a given orientation can be determined using solar geometry. With the VS and HS given, the G factor can be worked out graphically. For simple design, the 23
G factor can also be calculated using plane trigonometry. In the following examples of calculating the G factor for simple horizontal overhangs, vertical fins and egg-crate sun-shades using trigonometry, the following convention is used: θ1 = VS (always positive) θ2 = HS (positive, if to the right of wall orientation; negative, if of wall orientation). to the left φ 1 = projection angle of horizontal projections with respect plane (assume positive for practical reason). to horizontal φ 2 = projection angle of vertical fin with respect to wall orientation (positive, if to the right of wall orientation; negative, if to the left of wall orientation) B2.3.1 For continuous horizontal projection fixed at window head level 24
s = P cos φ 1 tanθ 1 + P sinφ 1 = P(cos φ 1 tan θ 1 + sinφ 1 ) e s e or = s = 1 P (cos φ tan θ 1 1 + sinφ 1 ) G1 = 1 R1(cosφ1 tanφ1 + sinφ1) Where e G = and R1 1 = P for horizontal projections. Notes: 1. G 1 2. Table C12 to Table C15 give the SC of horizontal projections for a range of R 1 values with φ 1 ranging from o to 5 o. B2.3.2 For continuous vertical fins in an array s = P cosφ 2 tanφ 2 P sinφ 2 = P cosφ 2 tanθ 2 sinφ 2 e e = = 1 P s cos φ 2 tan φ 2 sinφ 2 25
or G 2 = 1 R2 cosφ2 tanφ2 sin φ 2 where e G = and R2 2 = P for vertical fins Notes: 1. G 2 2. Table C16 to Table C19 give the SC of vertical fins for a range of R 2 values with φ 2 ranging from o to 5 o. φ 2 is chosen for the situation which gives the lower SC of the two possible values, viz positive or negative φ 2. B2.3.3 For egg-crate and combination fins made up of horizontal and vertical components for which the horizontal component may be sloped. G G 1 2 = 1 R (cosφ = 1 R 1 2 tanθ 1 2 tanφ 1 sinφ 1 ) Since G 1 and G 2 are independent of each other, the combined effect of the two components can be expressed as follows: G 3 = G1 G2 Notes: 1. G 3 2. Table C2 to Table C23 give the SC of combination fins for a range of R 1 and R 2 values with φ 1 ranging from o to 4 o. 26
B3 Examples The following examples are meant to illustrate how the SC of a shading device is calculated from first principle.

The same procedure is repeated for March 21, September 23 and December 22 in order to work out the effective SC for the whole year. B3.3 Example C Find the effective SC of a shading device parallel to the wall as shown in the diagram below. It is installed in a North-facing wall. Fig (a) The glass window is shaded by a panel parallel to the wall. The shadow cast on the window varies according to the time of the day depending on the sun s position and its vertical shadow angle (θ 1 ). For 68.2 o < θ 1 < 9 o, the shading device is ineffective as sun rays strike the window directly. See figure (b). For θ 1 = 45 o, the window is totally shaded. See figure (c). For θ 1 < 45 o, the window is partially shaded by the lower portion of the strip. See figure (d). The shadow patterns for figure (c) and figure (d) can be worked out by simple geometry.

Ordinarily, high emissivity is assumed for air spaces bounded by building materials of moderately smooth surfaces. Low emissivity only applies where one or both sides of the air space are bounded by a reflective surface such as that of an aluminium foil. 2. Interpolation with the range of pitch angles from horizontal to 45 is permitted. For angles beyond 45, the value for 45 can be used; no extrapolation is needed. 3. Interpolation within the range of thickness from 5mm to 1mm is permitted. For air spaces less than 5mm, extrapolation basing on R a = for zero thickness is allowed; otherwise R a is assumed to be zero. For air spaces greater than 1mm, the R a for 1mm should be used; i.e. extrapolation is not permitted. 4. In the case of air space in roof, reflective foil used should be installed with the reflective surface facing downward as dust deposit will render an upward-facing surface ineffective after a while. 37

PPENDIX D D1 Example of ETTV Calculation for an office building D1.1 Brief Description of Building The 25-storey office building consists of a 4-storey rectangular podium and a 21-storey square tower. The building is orientated in the North, East, South and West directions with the front façade facing the south. While all the other façades are exposed to the weather, the west façade of the podium is joined to the neighbouring building by a 23mm brick party wall. With the exception of the 4 th storey open deck which is a landscaped roof garden-cum-café, the other storeys are all centrally air-conditioned. Hence the ETTV calculation covers only the 24 air-conditioned storeys. The basement which houses the car park and plant room is not included in the calculation as it is completely submerged. The envelope design consists essentially of a flush curtain wall construction with double glazing for the tower block as well as the east and south façades of the podium. The 1 st storey facades on the east and south consist of an almost full height glass envelope shaded by a continuous overhang. 62
