<p>Hi Aris,</p>
<p>Thank you for your great help. </p>
<p>It is exactly what I want to do. And thank you for your detailed explanations, I think I will never get confused about the NoMassOpaque again.</p>

<p>Hi Xiaojian,</p>
<p></p>
<p>Yes, a construction with no mass may help in modelling thermal bridging but will result in inaccurate results if you try to make a detailed simulation. Perhaps what you might want to do is create a custom construction and play with the thickness of the insulation material to get different U values.</p>

<p>Hi Aris,</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thank you for your great help and so sorry for my late reply. That seems the only way to handle the problem. But does that can change the result much as <span>the calculation will not take into account any thermal mass?</span></p>

<p>Hi Xioajian,</p>
<p>There is the NoMassOpaque Material Component found in the construction tab of Honeybee. You can plug in directly an R value there along with absorbance parameters, however, as the name implies the calculation will not take into account any thermal mass.</p>
