To determine metal stud wall systems with improved thermal insulation performance. Thermal transmittance of steel framed walls was analyzed using heat-transfer simulation program THERM 7.6. Thermal insulation performance of various configurations of metal stud walls has been evaluated. Approaches to enhance thermal insulation performance of steel framed walls were determined. The work results can be used in designing new energy efficient building.
