[0001] The invention relates to a steep-pitched roof decked with roof decking boards according
to the preamble of Claim 1 and a method for constructing a steep-pitched roof according
to the preamble of Claim 6.
[0002] Effective insulation of roofs, walls, facades and ceilings, whether in the case of
newly constructing buildings or also in the case of reconstructing old buildings,
is nowadays basically indispensable for reasons of thermal and/or acoustic insulation.
In the prior art, and in structural engineering in general, there exist therefore
a large number of suggestions for how to insulate these parts of buildings.
[0003] For example, a roof insulation system has been disclosed in DE-A 28 39 767, in which
thermal insulating sheets which can be rolled as an insulating layer parallel to the
eaves are placed on loosely and held in their position at specific intervals by supporting
planks which likewise run parallel to the eaves. Owing to the supporting planks which
are made of wood and are laid with a mutual spacing of about 2 m, there are, however,
several interruptions in the thermal insulating layer laid on the exposed panel work,
thus resulting in cold bridges or heat bridges in each case in the region of the supporting
planks, via which bridges cold or heat can pass from the roof decking into the inside
of the building.
[0004] In total, the effect of the insulating layer in the insulation system according to
DE-A 28 39 767 is therefore diminished. If the supporting planks were to be omitted,
no satisfactory insulating effect of the thermal insulating sheets laid would be provided
either since the pressure of the roof, consisting of its own weight, snow and wind
load, would then compress the thermal insulating sheets.
[0005] A thermal roof insulation system has been disclosed in DE-A 34 35 648, which to a
very great extent eliminates the disadvantage of the cold bridges or heat bridges
caused by the wooden supporting planks. For this purpose, DE-A 34 35 648 proposes
firstly laying sheets of insulating material running parallel to the ridge or eaves
on the exposed panel work mounted on the rafters, supporting planks running between
the sheets of insulating material approximately in accordance with DE-A 28 39 767.
Further supporting planks running perpendicular to the eaves or to the ridge are then
nailed to these supporting planks, and strips or sheets of insulating material are
then again laid between these further supporting planks, which strips or sheets run
turned through 90° relative to the first strips or sheets. The battens for the roof
decking are then mounted on the supporting planks of the second layer of insulating
material running perpendicular to the eaves. The continuous heat bridges or cold bridges
caused by the supporting planks are thus indeed reduced to point-like places in the
subject-matter of DE-A 34 35 648 where the supporting planks of the first and second
insulating layers running perpendicular to one another intersect, thus certainly improving
the insulating properties of this known roof substructure compared to DE-A 28 39 767,
but these improved insulating properties have to be produced at the expense of a number
of disadvantages:
[0006] For example, the insulation system according to DE-A 34 35 648 is expensive due to
the multiplicity of supporting planks and insulating sheets, and it is additionally
also time-consuming and thus expensive to construct since the roof virtually has to
be completely thermally insulated twice, once with the insulating layer of the first
layer and then with the insulating layer of the second layer running perpendicular
thereto. Furthermore, the weight of roof is increased by the dual-layer construction
with the increased number of supporting planks required. The provision of the additional
supporting planks is also disadvantageous from the point of view of fire protection.
[0007] The problems specified above no longer exist in a roof substructure according to
DE-A 36 15 109. In this known roof substructure, the supporting planks running between
the individual sheets of insulating material and serving as a bearing construction
for the subsequent roof load can be dispensed with. In the roof substructure according
to DE-A 36 15 109, individual boards of insulating material, which are provided with
a lamination on their topside, said lamination being open to diffusion but waterproof,
are laid in such a way on the exposed panel work mounted on the rafters that partial
regions of the lamination open to diffusion which project or overlap in each case
at a longitudinal or transverse edge cover adjacent boards of insulating material,
thus resulting in a lamination of the entire insulating layer which is formed in a
mutually covering imbricated manner and is waterproof, but is open to diffusion. The
bearing battens, which run perpendicular to the ridge and eaves and then receive the
transverse battens for laying the roof decking boards, are then laid directly on this
lamination which is water repellent, but open to diffusion. The bearing battens are
attached by nailing through the lamination, through the material of the insulating
boards and through the exposed panel work the roof rafters located below.
[0008] This roof substructure of DE-A 36 15 109 with the advantage of an insulating layer
over the entire surface has proved to be very expedient, but the insulating boards
must, for statical reasons in order to absorb the roof load, have a compression strength
of at least 50 kN/m
2 which makes such a roof substructure relatively expensive. At the same time, a relatively
high bulk density is thus required, which affects the thermal conductivity in relation
to the thermal insulating capacity. In order to obtain a good insulating effect, the
thermal insulating boards must therefore be of appropriately thick design. To achieve
a heat transmission coefficient k (k-value) of 0.42, for example, a thickness of at
least 80 mm is thus required. Any improved k-values desired require correspondingly
thicker thermal insulating boards. With an increasing thickness of the individual
thermal insulating boards, however, the total roof load also rises considerably. Furthermore,
thick boards of this type are awkward to handle, to cut and to lay. Also, the thicker
the thermal insulating boards are, an ever increasing shearing load results, which
acts in the direction of the eaves and exerts bending moments on the attachment means
of the insulating boards.
[0009] Furthermore, even though there are no inherent heat or cold bridges in DE-A 36 15
109, this roof substructure is built up of elements having a limited size (approximately
1120 x 600 mm). The size of these elements must be limited, for a single person could
otherwise not handle them any more without problems or danger. This does, however,
mean under practical circumstances that for decking the entire surface of a roof,
a multiplicity of such insulating elements must be used. If, for example, insulating
elements according to DE-A 36 15 109 having the above indicated dimensions are used
for decking a roof of altogether 320 m
2, approximately 480 such insulating elements must be used to realize full-surface
decking of the bearing formwork. The result is a multiplicity of joints between the
individual elements, which run parallel and perpendicular to a roof edge, for example
the eaves. Owing to prefabrication of the insulating elements and particularly to
individual laying of the insulating elements, mutual contact between the individual
abutting surfaces of the insulating elements in the area of these joints running parallel
and perpendicular will never be fully guaranteed to be perfectly full-surface or without
gaps, particularly in the case of inaccurate laying resulting in a multiplicity of
heat or cold bridges in the insulating layer that are distributed over the entire
roof.
[0010] It is conceivable to reduce the number of insulating elements per roof, for example
to half by doubling their size, and thus reduce the number of individual butt joints,
but then a single person would not be able any more to handle such an insulating element
having a size of e.g. 2240 × 1200 mm without danger.
[0011] As already mentioned at the beginning, not only the insulation of facades and roofs,
but also the insulation between storeys is increasingly gaining importance. Ceilings
between single storeys, however particularly the ceiling between the top storey and
the loft, are realized as layered insulated structures in the course of constructing
new buildings, but also subsequently, particularly if higher demands to protection
against impact sound are made, and/or if the space in the attic is to be used for
storage or other purposes.
[0012] It is a known and widely common manner of proceeding in constructing a ceiling composed
of a plurality of layers to lay a plurality of mutually spaced, parallel wooden beams
on the supporting ceiling portion of the building. These wooden beams delimit between
each other zones to be filled with insulating material which has the form of boards
or sheets, or bulk material. On top of the wooden beams, and thus above the insulating
layer, a top layer capable of bearing loads is then mounted, for example particle
boards or gypsum plaster boards, which are screwed or nailed to the underlying wooden
beams and form the cover for the layered ceiling capable of being walked on or otherwise
bearing loads.
[0013] Although this type of construction is commonly applied, it suffers from a number
of inherent disadvantages:
[0014] The wooden beams forming the supporting elements for the top layer are heavy and
bulky parts which, particularly in the case of subsequent insertion of a ceiling composed
of a plurality of layers to be constructed according to the known method, for example
in the process of reconstructing an old building, often cannot even be transported
to the location of installation through the inside of the building, i.e. the stairway,
but require the expenses of transport to the location of installation by means of
an extemal inclined hoist.
[0015] Laying the wooden beams is furthermore expensive as these must be screwed to the
ceiling portion of the building. The reason for this is that wood, being a natural
construction material, "works", which means that it can warp or tilt over the passage
of time. In such a case, the top layer capable of bearing loads, i.e. the particle
boards or the gypsum plaster boards or the like, will not be flushly supported any
more and may locally bend when walked on, resulting in the occurrence of creaking
or clattering sounds or the like. Screwing the wooden beams to the ceiling portion
of the building, however, particularly in the case of concrete ceiling, requires expensive
drilling and dowelling work.
[0016] If the ceiling portion of the building is uneven in itself, for example due to any
major surface roughness in the concrete or due to the fact that the ceiling portion
of the building is a wooden ceiling comprising more or less heavily warped boards,
which is a common sight in old buildings, it must be ensured in a time-consuming manner,
by underlying spacing wedges or the like when laying and fastening the wooden beams,
that the top surfaces of all the wooden beams are within a horizontal plane after
laying, in order to later on ensure correct laying of the particle boards or gypsum
plaster boards likewise inside a horizontal plane.
[0017] Even if the insulating material introduced between the wooden beams fills the zones
formed between the wooden beams closely fitting and essentially without a gap, the
thermal and impact sound insulating properties of this known ceiling composed of a
plurality of layers must be regarded as not always being satisfactory because the
wooden beams have a low resistance against heat transmission on the one hand and a
poor acoustic insulation capacity on the other hand. Impact sound is therefore directly
transmitted from the top layer capable of bearing loads via the wooden beams to the
underlying ceiling portion of the building and transmitted by the latter and radiated
into a part of the building below, that is to say the storey underneath. Likewise,
heat can travel from a part of the building situated underneath the layered ceiling
through the ceiling portion of the building, the wooden beams providing poor thermal
insulation, and the top layer capable of bearing loads.
[0018] Finally it is quite a considerable disadvantage of the known insulated ceiling according
to the above description that due to the wooden beams, the behaviour in fire of such
a ceiling is poorer.
[0019] In contrast, the object of the present invention is to provide a steep-pitched roof
decked with roof decking boards and a method of producing such a roof having a roof
substructure composed of a plurality of layers in such a way that, with a comparatively
light layer of insulating material and, at the same time, improved thermal insulating
capacity with smaller insulation thicknesses, a cost-effective roof substructure without
any heat bridges or cold bridges can be achieved at small expense of time, money and
work in the case of the roof substructure, and a ceiling which also is virtually free
of heat bridges and also offers improved protection against impact sound can be achieved
at small expense of time, money and work in the case of the insulated ceiling composed
of a plurality of layers.
[0020] This object is technically achieved in terms of device by the features of Claim 1
and in terms of method by the features or measures described in Claim 6.
[0021] For example, in the roof substructure according to the invention, the insulating
layer is made up of at least two types of strips of the same material laid alternately
individually and without gaps parallel to an edge of the roof, which can be laid individually
and consecutively while made to contact each other without a gap. The one type of
strip here serves to absorb the roof load of roof parts located above the insulating
layer, is provided with a far higher compression strength and of a many times narrower
design compared to the other type of strip, and manufactured from bonded mineral wool.
The other type of strip is also manufactured from bonded mineral wool, primarily glass
wool.
[0022] Owing to the fact that the two types of strips may be laid individually and consecutively,
care can be taken that the individual types of strips contact each other with a press-in
fit and thus entirely without a gap. Owing to the design of the two types of strips
in the form of bonded mineral wool, which has a certain fluffiness or elasticity particularly
in the case of the type of strip serving purely insulating purposes, this results
in contact of the two types of strips free of heat or cold bridges.
[0023] In other words, instead of the single, prefabricated board elements in the case of
the roof insulating system according to DE-A 36 15 109, which generate the heat bridges
or cold bridges, or instead of the supporting planks between the individual sheets
of insulating material in the known insulated ceiling, in the roof substructure according
to the invention, the strips running between the strips preferably designed as pure
insulating strips absorb the roof loads introduced via the bearing arrangement, for
example base battens, or the static and dynamic live loads introduced via a top layer,
for example particle boards or gypsum plaster boards.
[0024] It is essential, among others, that the strips for absorbing the load have a very
high thermal insulating capacity and also impact sound insulation which is far better
e.g. compared to supporting planks. It is an additional factor that the other strips,
designed as insulating strips, are not loaded, such that the latter can either have
the same or an even better thermal insulating capacity. Since the strips for absorbing
the load are of a many times narrower design compared to the other strips serving
purely insulating purposes, the reduced thermal insulating capacity in the region
of the load-absorbing strips - the reduction being relatively small in any case -
occurs in a region taking up a small percentage of the entire roof surface. In this
case, the strips serving purely insulating purposes - approximately as when using
wooden supporting planks - can be selected to have optimum properties in respect of
their thermal insulating capacity since they are not involved in absorbing the roof
load. As a result, it is once again possible to reduce the overall thickness of the
insulating layer without having to tolerate a poorer k-value when doing so. The multiplicity
of constructive joints running parallel and perpendicular to a roof edge as are present
in DE-A 36 15 109 are also eliminated, which also positively contributes to improve
the k-value. Finally, the use of an essentially relatively light additional insulating
layer allows a significant reduction in material costs, and the load-absorbing strips
provide a cost saving in respect of special supporting planks and their wage-intensive
attachment.
[0025] The method according to the invention for constructing a roof substructure essentially
comprises the steps of building up the insulating layer from at least two types of
strips of the same material which are laid alternately individually and without gaps
parallel to an edge of the roof, the one type of strip serving to absorb the roof
load, introduced via a bearing arrangement, of the roof parts located above the insulating
layer, and having a far higher compression strength in relation to the other type
of strip, and being of a many times narrower design compared to the other type of
strip. Furthermore, the strips for absorbing the load are arranged above the bearing
formwork with a mutual spacing which corresponds to or is slightly smaller than the
width of the other strips, the other strips then being pressed in without gaps between
the load-absorbing strips in order to form a continuous insulating layer which is
free of heat bridges.
[0026] What is essential here is that the strips serving purely insulating purposes are
pressed in between the load-absorbing strips without a gap in order to form the continuous
insulating layer free of heat bridges. This pressing in free of gaps is made possible
by the fact that both types of strips consist of bonded mineral wool, such that the
load-absorbing strips may be arranged with a mutual spacing which corresponds to or
is slightly smaller than the width of the other strips, with the fluffiness and elasticity
of the strips serving for insulating purposes making it possible to press in these
strips between the load-absorbing strips without a gap and closely fitting and thereby
form the continuous insulating layer without heat bridges.
[0027] The method according to the invention can be applied analogously in producing or
constructing the insulated ceiling composed of a plurality of layers according to
the invention, with the starting edge or reference edge, however, not being a roof
edge but a building wall.
[0028] Advantageous further developments of the invention emerge from the respective subclaims.
[0029] The strips for absorbing the load have a compression strength of at least 50 kN/m
2. As a result, it is ensured that, despite the width of the load-absorbing strips
being many times smaller compared to the other strips preferably serving purely insulating
purposes, the roof loads introduced via the bearing arrangement, or the static and
dynamic loads generated by pieces of furniture, walking on etc. introduced via the
top layer, can reliably be absorbed and distributed without said loads, while doing
so, excessively pressing in the load-absorbing strips and thus also the other strips
located between them.
[0030] At least the strips of bonded glass wool can be produced in either sheet or board
form. However, the sheet form is preferred since this allows more rapid laying between
the load-absorbing insulating strips.
[0031] If the roof substructure according to the invention is to be constructed for a steep-pitched
roof, the two types of strips are laid parallel to that edge of the roof which is
defined by the ridge and/or eaves. As a result, the load-absorbing strips can be used
directly for attaching the bearing arrangement, designed as base battens, for the
remaining roof construction, that is to say battens and roof decking boards. In this
case, the strips for absorbing the are attached to the exposed panel work more or
less fixedly depending on the roof slope, which can be carried out, for example, by
point-type tacking using staples or the like. This is begun starting from the ridge,
by attaching the first load-absorbing strip of higher bulk density parallel to said
ridge on the exposed panel work covered by the vapour barrier. The second load-absorbing
strip of higher bulk density then follows parallel to the first and parallel to the
ridge, specifically with a spacing which corresponds to the width - with a slight
underdimension - of the strip serving purely insulating purposes. The strip made of
bonded glass wool serving purely insulating purposes is then pressed or clamped into
the strip-shaped zone thus created. The third strip of higher bulk density then follows,
and so on until the entire roof surface has the alternating insulating layer.
[0032] In the method according to the invention, in laying the sheets or boards of mineral
wool serving for insulating purposes, any excess lengths projecting in the region
of an end face of the roof can advantageously be cut off. These cut-off excess lengths
can then form the beginning when laying the next strip serving insulating purposes.
As a result, laying is possible which is to a very great extent without waste and
thus without losses.
[0033] Further details, aspects and advantages of the present invention emerge from the
following description with reference to the drawing, in which:
Figure 1 shows a sectional illustration along line I-I in Figure 3 to illustrate a
construction of a roof substructure according to the invention;
Figure 2 shows a sectional illustration along line II-II in Figure 1 and 3; and
Figure 3 shows a perspective and, in some parts, cutaway view of a roof substructure
according to the invention.
[0034] The following description of an embodiment of a roof substructure according to the
present invention is given with reference to a practical example, in which a steep-pitched
couple roof is insulated using the roof substructure according to the invention. The
insulation of other roof types, however, is equally possible.
[0035] A roof substructure denoted in total by 2 in the drawing has the construction which
can be seen, in particular, in Figures 1 and 2. In the example illustrated, the roof
substructure serves to insulate a couple roof decked with roof decking boards. Couple
roofs are distinguished in a known manner by a exposed panel work 4 which is designed,
for example, in the form of tongue-and-groove boards which are nailed to the individual
rafters 6 over the entire surface. The exposed panel work 4 is followed by a covering
layer 8 which not only serves as a vapour barrier, but also provides the required
draught-proofing. A reinforced bitumen roof sheeting mat V13 can be used, for example,
as the covering layer 8 which is nailed at seams and joints to overlap in a concealing
manner.
[0036] An insulating layer 10 is then built up on the covering layer 8. As can best be seen
in Figures 1 and 3, the insulating layer 10 consists of at least two types of laid
strips which are laid, according to Figures 1 and 3, between a roof eaves 12 or an
eaves beam 14 at that point and a roof ridge 16 without gaps and alternately parallel
to said roof ridge and to the eaves 12. In this case, the one type of strip 18 serves
to absorb the roof load introduced via base battens 20 serving as a bearing arrangement
for the remaining roof construction (in particular battens 21 and roof decking boards),
and the other type of strip 22 serves purely insulating purposes. As can best be seen
from Figures 1 and 3, in this case the strips 18 for absorbing the load are of a many
times narrower design compared to the strips 22 serving purely insulating purposes.
For example, the strips 18 have a width of 150 mm and the strips 22 have a width of
600 mm.
[0037] The strips 18 for absorbing the load have a compression strength of at least 50 kN/m
2 and consist, in a preferred design, of bonded mineral wool. The strips 22 located
between them and serving purely insulating purposes preferably also consist of bonded
glass wool.
[0038] A film 24 which is water repellent and open to diffusion is laid in sheets in an
overlapping manner on the insulating layer 10 (Figure 2). The individual battens of
the base battens 20 are predrilled in the region of the load-absorbing strips 18 and
nailed through the insulating layer 10 with the rafters 6 located below it by means
of rafter nails 26. The base battens 20 then serve to receive the battens 21 for the
roof decking.
[0039] To produce the roof substructure 2 according to the invention or the insulating layer
10, the procedure is as follows:
[0040] The laying of the insulating layer 10 begins at the ridge 16 in the direction of
the eaves 12. When the required preparatory work has been completed, i.e. when the
exposed panel work 4 has been attached to the rafters 6 and the covering layer 8 has
been mounted thereon, a row of load-absorbing strips 18 is firstly attached to the
corresponding rafters 6 through the exposed panel work 4 and through the covering
layer 8 at that point. For this purpose, the load-absorbing strips 18 can be tacked
on, for example, using so-called staples. In this case, the spacing between the individual
strips 18 is slightly smaller (e.g. 1 cm) than the width of the strips 22 to be laid
between the load-absorbing strips 18 and serving purely insulating purposes, in order
thus to achieve a clamping effect of the strips 22 between the strips 18 which is
free of heat bridges. When the last strip 18 has been tacked to the rafters 6 through
the covering layer 8, the strips 22 serving purely insulating purposes are pressed
into the zones between the load-absorbing strips 18 with a press-in fit and without
joints. The spacing between the last load-absorbing strip 18, seen in the direction
of the eaves, and the eaves beam 14 generally does not correspond precisely to the
width of a strip 22 serving purely insulating purposes, but is usually smaller to
a greater or lesser extent, as indicated in Figures 1 and 3. The last strip 22 of
pure insulating material, located in the region of the eaves, therefore has to be
cut to an appropriately narrower size.
[0041] Another possibility of building up the insulating layer 10 is to tack the load-absorbing
strips 18 on in the rafters 6 through the covering layer 8 as the insulating layer
gradually "travels" in the direction of the eaves 14. More precisely, the first load-absorbing
strip 18 is firstly tacked on starting from the ridge 16. The second load-absorbing
strip 18 is subsequently tacked on with a suitable spacing (see above) from the first
load-absorbing strip 18, and the first zone between these strips 18 is filled with
the first strip 22 serving the insulating purposes. The third load-absorbing strip
18, seen from the ridge 16, is then tacked on with a suitable spacing from the second
load-absorbing strip 18, and the second zone between these strips 18 is filled with
the second strip 22 serving the insulating purposes, and so on.
[0042] The load absorbing strips 18 are available in a specific length, for example 2 m,
a specific width of, for example, 150 mm and appropriate thicknesses of, for example,
80 to 180 mm, graded in increments of 20 mm. The width of the strips 22 serving purely
insulating purposes is, for example, 600 mm and their thickness corresponds to the
thickness of the respective load-absorbing strips 18, that is to say, for example,
is within the range of 80 to 180 mm in increments of 20 mm. The strips 22 serving
purely insulating purposes can be built up of insulating material in board form or
sheet form. The use of glass wool in sheet form is preferred, which can be cut off
in the case of an excess length projecting at the end face and forms the beginning
at that point when the next strip 22 serving insulating purposes is laid. Laying of
the sheet-type or board-type glass wool material to build up the strips 22 serving
purely insulating purposes is thus possible to a very great extent without waste and
without losses.
[0043] When the insulating layers 10 have been built upon both sides of the roof according
to one of the procedures mentioned, the gap remaining in the region of the ridge 16
between the two load-absorbing strips 18 at that point is also stuffed with insulating
material 28. Subsequently, the film 24 which is open to diffusion is laid in sheet
form with appropriate overlaps 30 on the two insulating layers 10 overthe entire insulating
or roof surface and is sealed off in the regions of the overlaps 30 using self-adhesive
strips. In this case, the film 24 and its individual sheets on one side of the roof
extend by a specific amount beyond the ridge 16 onto the other side of the roof and
vice versa so that the layer which is formed by the film 24 and is open to diffusion,
but is waterproof, is closed over the entire surface. As already mentioned, the individual
battens of the base battens 20 are then predrilled in the region of the load-absorbing
strips 18 and the base battens 20 are nailed using the rafter nails 26 through the
material of the load-absorbing strips 18 into the material of the individual rafters
6. The base battens 20 then receive the bearing battens 21 for the roof decking.
[0044] The introduction of the roof load onto the rafter zone of the roof, formed by the
rafters 6, thus takes place via the base battens 20 and the load-absorbing strips
18. Since the load-absorbing strips 18 have a compression strength of at least 50
kN/m
2, they also have sufficient compression strength to absorb the roof load - composed
of the load caused by roof parts located above the insulating layer 10 and snow and/or
wind load - and introducing it into the rafters 6 without any substantial compression
of the load-absorbing strips 18 and thus of the strips 22 serving purely insulating
purposes occurring when doing so.
[0045] It is also possible to use the combinations, according to the invention, of compression-resistant
strips made of bonded mineral wool and sheets serving only purely insulating purposes
and likewise made of bonded mineral wool, but having a far lower bulk density for
insulating facades on buildings. In this case, instead of the basic battens 20, as
in the couple roof described, a lattice structure is laid overthe entire roof surface,
which lattice structure spans the insulating surface and is embedded in an undercoat
rendering. Subsequently, the entire surface is provided with an exterior rendering
so that the layer of external rendering thus formed is then supported via the lattice
structure on the individual compression-resistant strips.
[0046] Furthermore, the combination according to the invention can also be used advantageously
for facade constructions in which claddings, such as shingles attached to batten grids
or prehung renderable bearing panels are used. In the exemplary use of bearing panels,
the facade construction can also be designed to be ventilated, specifically by the
compression-resistant strips being of thicker design than the strips serving purely
insulating purposes, so that ventilation slots remain free between the bearing panels
and the insulating sheets. As shown by the further examples of use specified, the
combination according to the invention can be used universally. In general terms,
the above statements in respect of a roof insulation using the roof substructure according
to the invention apply essentially also to a facade insulation. The same advantages
can be achieved, that is to say advantages in respect of cost saving, weight reduction,
simple construction, continuous freedom from heat bridges and non-flammability of
the insulating layer.
