Building Envelope Effects

Building Envelope Effects is a construct in building science that refers to the influence of the physical and thermal properties of a building’s external barriers—such as walls, roofs, windows, and insulation—on the indoor thermal environment, specifically in terms of heat transfer, air leakage, and solar gain, thereby affecting thermal comfort conditions within educational buildings.
