C402.2.8
Above-grade exterior concrete slabs. Above-grade concrete slabs
that penetrate the building thermal envelope including, but
not limited to, decks and balconies, shall each include a minimum R-10 thermal
break, aligned with the primary insulating layer in the adjoining wall
assemblies. Stainless steel (but not carbon steel) reinforcing bars are
permitted to penetrate the thermal break. If the total building performance
path or the component performance alternative in Section C402.1.5 is utilized
and the thermal break required by this section is not provided where concrete
slabs penetrate the building thermal envelope, the sectional
area of the penetration shall be assigned the default
U-factors from the "exposed concrete" row of Table A103.3.7.2.
