Does Ecotect account for thermal bridging in framed walls?

Does anyone know? What i mean is I have drawn a house with brick walls that the insulation is in the middle, but the collumns and the beams are from concrete and the insulation is on the outside. In reality, there are created thermal bridges. Does Ecotect, if I have made the layers correctly, take into consideration those bridges?

Thanks in advance, and hope it hasn't been discussed before, I tried but couldn't find anything.

Hi.

 

Did you ever found the answer for this question? I'm new to Ecotect and I've been learning to use this program all by myself and I've been trying to find the best way to model possible thermal bridges but don't know how.

 

How did you handle this question?

 

Thank you very much

Hi,

I have similar problem, according to my work it doesn't. The only thing which I've found and maybe helpful is that the analysis in Ecotect is cunducted acording to CIBSE Admittance Method.
