Enhancing Energy Efficiency with Thermal Mass in Concrete Structures

This article explores the primary energy benefits of utilizing concrete mass in construction, emphasizing its ability to mitigate peak energy demands. By minimizing carbon emissions and reducing overall energy costs, thermal mass proves essential for sustainable building design. The benefits of mass in insulated concrete forms (ICF) extend beyond energy efficiency, highlighting R-value advantages and their performance with respect to infiltration. The piece also distinguishes between exterior and interior applications, making it a comprehensive guide for effective concrete use in sustainability.
