LowE Glazing Design Guide Author:Timothy Johnson Low-E Glazing Design Guide, an international reference on low-emissivity — glazings, includes practical design methods for solar load minimization, solar — heating applications, and daylighting. This book reveals the many issues — concerning building codes, energy, and thermal and visual comfort that designersmust address to understand this revolu... more »tionary glazing. Readers learn the evolution of the product and how the rapid acceptance of low-e glazing is
tabulated both by performance and application for quick identification, and
examples of office and residential low-e glass usage in Europe and North Americaare given. Low-E Glazing Design Guide fills the void of technological
information for the designer in this new field.
