PartL NI: Results Tab

Contains the resulted reports derived from PartL NI calculations. The program checks criteria for PartL2A compliance. All checks need to be satisfied before overall compliance is achieved. Actual compliance with PartL2A involves further criteria such as ensuring the building is constructed consistent with BER and operated in an energy efficient manner. These additional criteria are outside the scope of this calculation program.

CO2 emissions mandatory requirement

Carbon dioxide emissions for the actual building (BER) is computed by SBEM. A notional building is automatically constructed using the actual building data and limiting U values and glazed areas, as defined in PartL. The carbon dioxide emission for the notional building is computed by SBEM.
