Thermal Mass Research Initiative

MMI is proud to partner with leading research professionals at Red River College Polytech, The University of Manitoba Faculty of Engineering, Crosier Kilgour Engineering and The National Research Council on this multi-year study on the effects of energy consumption with respect to Thermal Mass in building envelopes.

The project utilizes sophisticated monitoring equipment, with the goal of collecting true and trusted data, over multiple seasons, to determine the real energy consumption of various masonry envelopes, and how the thermal mass impacts the consumption. 

This unique partnership between industry, university, polytech, NRC, and design professionals, bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise resulting in information that can be verified, trusted, truthful, and fact-based, over multiple heating and cooling seasons, to determine the true energy consumption.
