Answer:
c. expanded polyurethane
Step-by-step explanation:
Thermal performance of a building fabric is measured in terms of heat loss and is expressed as U-value or R-value. U-value is the rate of heat transferred through a structure divided by the difference in temperature across the structure with a unit of measurement of W/m²K.You can calculate the U-value of a by getting the reciprocal of the sum of thermal resistances , R, making the building material.
If you have the value of R, then U=1/R
Material size R U
plywood 1" 1.25 0.8
Poured concrete 2" 0.99 1.010
Expanded polyurethane 1" 6.5 0.1538
Asbestos shingles 1" 0.03 33.33
The material with lowest U-value is expanded polyurethane
