The BBA operates a Scheme for assessing and monitoring
U-value and condensation risk calculation competency.
The Scheme seeks to promote and assist accurate, objective and consistent calculation of U-values and condensation risk within buildings.
Registration under the Scheme provides reassurance to any specifier or user that the services or data being provided are supplied by an individual or company that has been subject to a rigorous independent assessment process. They can therefore be assured that this output is representative and reliable.
The content of the Scheme was devised in association with TIMSA, the Thermal Insulation Manufacturers and Suppliers Association, who continue to participate in maintaining its validity with ongoing development. However, it is also open to individuals and companies who are not members of TIMSA.
JPA TL supports the scheme, and scheme members can use JPA Designer to display the scheme logo on the outputs from U-value and condensation risk calculations.
Further information about the scheme can be obtained from:

Technical note 2011/02 below describes how Scheme members can add the Scheme logo to PDFs and
print-outs from JPA Designer.
