Warning: reverse order construction

A warning is displayed in my simulation in EnergyPlus :

"GetSurfaceData: Construction DIVIDER WALL of interzone surface SURFACE 3 does not have the same materials in the reverse order as the construction DIVIDER WALL of adjacent surface SURFACE 16 * ~~~ * ...but Nominal U values are similar, diff=[0.0000] ... simulation proceeds. * ~~~ * ...if the two zones are expected to have significantly different temperatures, the proper "reverse" construction should be created ".

What does it mean? How can I solve it?
