The better insulated the rest of the building, the greater the proportion of heat lost through thermal bridges. Many thermal bridges can be avoided through good design and workmanship. Some, however, are unavoidable because of their structural function. Most insulation materials cannot bear the imposed loads, so these bridges remain a source of excess heat loss. 

In this webinar, June 17th, 11am, the FOAMGLAS team will be going through how thermal bridging can affect the building envelope and what can be done to prevent it.
