Insulation curved roof
The design set a number of specific requirements in terms of acoustics, thermal resistance, manipulation and shape stability, implementation method, pressure resistance and cost price for the roof insulation.
During the preliminary study, various insulation materials were tested against these requirements. Both as stand-alone materials and in combination with other insulation materials. During discussions with the manufacturers, the limits of the various products were examined. Several mock-ups were also built to visualise and assess the whole.
- Finally, the choice fell on the installation of a 3-layer structure of mineral fibre boards with a thickness of 60 mm on the Steeldeck layer of the curved roof.
- For the concrete side wall, a 4-layer superstructure made of 3 mineral fibre sheets with a thickness of 60 mm and 1 layer of extruded polystyrene of 100 mm was chosen.
