The article in the ASCE Journal of Energy Engineering (1999, Vol. 125, pp.59-75) describes a study of the thermal inertia properties of autoclaved aerated concrete used as a building material. Five samples of the material were tested in a structure, and the average interior temperatures (°C) reported were as follows: 23.01, 22.22, 22.04, 22.62, and 22.59. Test that the average interior temperature is equal to 22.5°C using alpha (a) = 0.05.
