“R-58” is the measure of how effectively this wall section resists thermal conductivity. This value is calculated using the method specified by the Energy Conservation Code of New York State. In extending these standards to a hypothetical wall buildup, R-58 opens the range of objects whose ability to insulate and isolate can be quantified.
