The use of cast-in-place concrete elements, such as balconies or parapets, can create significant thermal bridges, reducing the wall U-value by up to 50% and compromising the building envelope. As modern building envelopes become more insulated and airtight, solutions like concrete balcony thermal breaks and effective thermal break concrete slab details are crucial to minimize heat loss and address issues at connection points.
