This kind of structural solution is commonly used in semi heated industrial buildings and warehouses, although is is recommended to be used only to buildings with a low indoor temperature. The steel frame forms cold bridges through the insulation. The cold bridges should be eliminated by a layer of fully covering insulation; the effect of the cold bridges is greater the higher the temperature difference over the wall is. The cold bridges should be eliminated by a layer of fully covering insulation.
The fire performance of the final wall structure is strongly affected by the fire properties of the insulation. All Paroc stone wool products presented here belong to Euroclass A1 - stone wool tolerates high temperatures of up to 1000 °C, protecting the steel structures from fire. |
