Original Abstract

This paper focuses on the analysis of the roof overhang detail performed by using rafter within above-rafter thermal insulation system. Close attention is paid especially to course of temperatures and the moisture condition of the rafter which goes continuously through the building envelope from interior to exterior. Both simplified thermo-technical calculations results and the results from long-term experimental measuring performed on a real building are presented and compared here.
