Poroton T8 is available from Wienerberger in a thickness of 30 cm. This achieves a U-value of 0.26 and just stays below the requirement of 0.28. Whether there is a static problem - no idea.
That is not sensible. Why not at least 36.5 or 42.5 in monolithic masonry?
According to the following information page, the limit for the Energy Saving Ordinance external walls is 0.24, so what is the limit now? I am a bit confused

Also, this is the first time I’ve heard that better window and roof insulation allows for a worse U-value for walls. (That would be great)
36.5 cm would also be possible, but for planning/dimensions/size, 30 cm, if possible, would be better.
PS: By 30 cm I mean purely the brick (without plaster etc.)
