“R-value” means a measure of thermal resistance of material or composite materials. “R-value” is equal to the reciprocal of the conductance of a given material, orR-value =

1

conductance of the material

where the conductance of the material is: Btu (hour × square foot × Fahrenheit degree average temperature difference between two surfaces).

Notes

Defines R-value as a measure of the thermal resistance of a material or composite materials, equal to the reciprocal of the material’s conductance. The provision also states conductance in British thermal units per hour, square foot, and Fahrenheit-degree average temperature difference between two surfaces.
