Intent

Intent 1:

To limit the probability that the overall thermal transmittance of certain floors-on-ground will be unacceptably high, which could lead to excessive thermal transfer through the building envelope, which could lead to unnecessary energy consumption for heating and cooling, 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 extent of the insulation under certain floors-on-ground will be insufficient in cases where thermal transfer could be increased due to the presence of radiant heating cables, heating or cooling pipes or membranes, which could lead to excessive thermal transfer through the building envelope, which could lead to unnecessary energy consumption for heating and cooling, which could lead to excessive use of energy, which could lead to an unacceptable effect on the environment.
