Section 5: Building Envelope, Prescriptive Option . Opaque Roofs (§5.5.3.1) Attic and all other roofs: “all other roofs” Comments: 5.8.1.8 prohibits installing roof insulation on suspended ceiling with removable ceiling tiles 5.8.1.6 prohibits recessing light fixtures into insulation unless area is < 1% 5.8.1.4 requires baffles around eave The Building Envelope Trade‐Off method provides much greater flexibility to the designer over the Prescriptive Method. Only the building envelope components may be considered, such as the walls, roofs, windows, doors, skylights, and foundation insulation. The Envelope Trade-off Method permits the use of COMcheck to provide a more economical solution. A 10,000 ft warehouse that is 200’ long x 50’ wide with a 16’ eave height provides a good example. For simplicity we will ignore doors and windows. Upgrading the thermal efficiency of the doors and windows can save money on a project.
