We use the plans to calculate the envelope area which we require for the test. We also need the Design Air Permeability from your SAP assessment. This is a value of 10 or less and is quoted in m3 / m2 .hr ( measured at a pressure of 50 pascals). This is the value set by your SAP Assessor.The design air permeability is shown on your SAP calculation.
