Thermal Breaks For Supported Steel Structures And Roof Structures

Uninsulated rooftop connections for parapets hvac units solar equipment and other structures penetrating the roof insulation layer act like cooling fins creating a thermal bridge between the cold exterior.

Thermal breaks for supported steel structures and roof structures.

Reduce heat loss by up to 90 while preventing mold growth where rooftop connections penetrate rooftop insulation. Structural columns exoskeleton structures junctions between masonry walls and support steel can form a linear thermal bridge. Each fabreeka tim thermal break pad has high compressive strength combined with low thermal conductivity making it an effective solution to reduce thermal bridging through the building envelope. Structural thermal break rooftop applications schöck north america.

Armatherm frr structural thermal break material provides a combination of low thermal conductivity and high compressive strength and has been used in hundreds of structural steel framing connections transferring load in moment and shear conditions. Fabreeka tim structural thermal break or thermal insulation material tim is an energy saving load bearing thermal break used between flanged steel connections. Isokorb structural thermal breaks.

Armatherm frr thermal break material can support up 40 000 psi and has an r value of 0 9 per inch. Farrat structural thermal breaks will support full column loads whilst insulating the steel structure.
