I am trying to run a simulation of local residential buildings. Most building's material properties are found in ASHRAE. Can you let me know where to find the values of solar absorptance, thermal absorptance and visible absorptance for different materials used in building construction such as walls, roof, windows , etc...?
If you understand French, the attached picture may be of interest. It comes from the book Archi Bio of J.-L. Isard edited by Parenthèses. I have also added a colorimetric table used at the LESO-PB, EPFL for visible characteristics

Not sure if this is what you're looking for but I found it useful for thermal envelope simulations
Dear Eng. Heba
Join the email-list of IBPSA-World and ask your question unless you find it in the Egyptian Code for Energy in Buildings.

Did you find the answer of your question? I'm trying to simulate the building envelope heat transfer and I don't know how to find the Thermal, Solar and Visible absorptance of different materials.
These documents that I make available to you have information that may be useful to you. I hope this information is helpful to you in your research.
