“…Thermal bridges may lead to surface damage and hygiene problems, such as mould growth, surface condensation and the staining of surfaces. The fact that thermal bridges in a building envelope can cause considerable heat loss was detailed in the 1980s [1][2][3]. This factor should also be considered in the design of modern buildings [4,5] because the relative significance of heat loss through thermal bridges is increased when there is a general decrease in thermal transmittance [6][7][8][9].…”
