Summary
As with the past two GPD Finland conferences I would like to present a 4 hr workshop regarding the vacuum insulated lazing (VIG) technology. This will include a discussion of the energy use in buildings and conventional IGU applications. A discussion of the properties of the VIG; I will speak to thermal and mechanical properties, discuss the design optimisation, testing of the VIG, and also the future evolution of the technology.
