In situ testing of the thermal performance of wall sections in N.W.T. : report for Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation / prepared by: G.K. Yuill and Associates Ltd.: NH17-155/1989E-PDF

"A project to evaluate the thermal performance of composite wall sections in Arctic housing was carried out over the 1988/89 heating season in Rankin Inlet, Northwest Territories. The project involved in situ testing in four housing units that were of different styles and constructed in different years. The purpose of the project was to determine if significant reductions in the insulating value of otherwise physically sound composite wall sections have occurred as a result of wall degradation caused by exposure to the harsh Arctic environment"--Exec.
