The objective of this work was to compile available information regarding energy use in concrete homes, develop additional information as needed, and use this information to develop a methodology to properly size heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment for concrete homes in the US and Canada. The authors prepared a literature review on thermal performance of insulated concrete walls and on sizing HVAC equipment in residential construction. The literature review, attached as Appendix A, identifies and briefly summarizes published information on (i) thermophysical properties of concrete and concrete walls, (ii) thermal behavior of concrete walls, including work performed to support the development of energy codes, (iii) general information on sizing HVAC equipment independent of construction type, and (iv) sizing HVAC equipment for insulated concrete homes. Appendix B is a summary of thermal mass in concrete and masonry.
