U Value Calculation

This document calculates the "U" values for various building components based on tables from the ASHRAE Load Calculation Manual. It provides the U values for the main building walls (0.0865 BTU/HR°F), three different roof types (ranging from 0.0654 to 0.0778 BTU/HR°F), and the auditorium roof (0.0682 BTU/HR°F). It also states the U value for glass is 0.335 BTU/HR°F. Additional notes provide lighting and other electrical load assumptions, as well as fresh air and building operation details.
