100 Hood Park Drive

InFacade’s Role

InFacade performed the thermal performance analysis of the glazing and framing systems for 100 Hood Park Drive, providing the NFRC-based U-factor, SHGC, VT and condensation resistance values required for energy code compliance.

Scope of Work

• Thermal performance analysis of the glazing and framing systems using NFRC methodology (THERM / WINDOW)
• U-factor calculations
• Condensation resistance evaluation
• Solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) and visible transmittance (VT) calculations

Deliverables

Thermal simulation reports prepared under NFRC 100 and NFRC 200 methodology by an NFRC LEAFF Certified Simulator, documenting U-factor, SHGC, VT and condensation resistance for each system, ready for energy code submittals and specification review.

About the Project

100 Hood Park Drive is a seven-story building at the center of the Hood Park development in Charlestown, Boston, Massachusetts.

The approximately 95,000-square-foot project combines a 900-space parking structure with about 60,000 square feet of lab-ready space and 20,000 square feet of ground-floor retail, along with a rooftop solar array and electric vehicle charging.
