Intent

Intent 1:

To limit the probability that the energy model will not account for heat transfer through all building envelope elements for each thermal block, which could lead to inaccuracy of the model, which could lead to overestimation of the energy used by the reference building or underestimation of the energy used by the proposed building, which could lead to excessive use of energy, which could lead to an unacceptable effect on the environment.

Intent 2:

To limit the probability that the dynamic response due to thermal characteristics of the building envelope assemblies will not be accounted for in the energy model, which could lead to inaccuracy of the model, which could lead to overestimation of the energy used by the reference building or underestimation of the energy used by the proposed building, which could lead to excessive use of energy, which could lead to an unacceptable effect on the environment.
