Given: A wall section has been constructed as shown in the drawing to the right. Assume that the interior temperature,

T_(i)

, is

70\deg F

and that the outside temperature,

T_(o)

, is

23\deg F

. The wall components are as shown below. Required: Find the weighted average overall coefficient of heat transfer,

U_(eff )

, of this wall section due to the thermal bridging of the wood studs. Estimate the weighted value to two decimals. Estimate all R-values to two decimals. Calculate the sensible heat loss {Btuh} through this 10' high by
