SUSTAINABILITY

In the past, erroneously, the relative environmental sustainability of insulation materials hasbeen compared on the basis of embodied energy and ozone depletion potential. It isnow recognised that a much wider basket of embodied environmental impacts (includingthose caused by their embodied energy), rather than embodied energy alone, is the onlycredible tool of comparison. Time has also annulled ozone depletion potential as an issueas all insulation materials are now banned from using CFC and HCFC blowing agentsby law.

For buildings designed to today’s Building Regulations energy usestandards it is now also known that the embodied environmentalimpacts of all of the materials and labour used to create a buildingare insignificant in comparison with the lifetime operationalenvironmental impacts of that building, and so are of very limitedimportance. Since it is operational energy use that creates the vastmajority of operational environmental impact, saving energy byspecifying the lowest U–values possible is the most environmentallysustainable action to take. A ground breaking study “Insulation forEnvironmental Sustainability” has been published by BING on thisand related issues. This report, written by XCO2 connisbee, isfreely available from Kingspan Insulation (see rear cover).

Furthermore, one of the most neglected facts about environmentally sustainable buildingsis that the longevity of their standards of operational energy use, and therefore thelongevity of their operational environmental impacts, is critical. The performance of someinsulants, such as mineral fibre, can deteriorate rapidly if exposed to water penetration,air movement or compression. This may increase operational energy use and hencecompromise the environmental sustainability of the finished building to an alarmingdegree. Other insulation materials, such as rigid phenolic and rigid urethane insulation,are not vulnerable to any of these problems.

In summary, designers should:(a) specify the lowest possible U–value regardless of insulation type;(b) design out the risk of their chosen insulant not performing as specified; and (c) if the latter is not possible, choose an insulant that is at low risk of failure e.g. acellular plastic insulation material.

However, manufacturers should not rest on their laurels; it is a matter ofsocial responsibility to be open and honest about the environmental impactof the manufacture of a product, and a full Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) basedon a much wider basket of environmental impacts, rather than embodiedenergy alone, is recognised as the preferred tool to achieve this.

Kingspan Insulation was the first insulation manufacturer to complete andopenly publish an independently certified Ecoprofile (a type of LCA) on itsKingspan Therma™ product range. This was carried out by the BuildingResearch Establishment (BRE). Kingspan Insulation is currently completing aBRE Ecoprofile of its Kingspan Kooltherm® K–range of rigid phenolicinsulation products.

But there is far more to sustainability than whether or not a product, process or companyaffects the environment in a positive or a negative way. A company can, and should,demonstrate its financial viability and social responsibility, as well as ensure that itsmaterials and methods do not add unduly to the burden placed on the planet.

In 2004 Kingspan Insulation put the manufacture of its products at its Pembridge facility in Herefordshire through a rigorous independent appraisal of its economic, social,environmental and natural resource impacts using Arup’s SPeAR® tool. These productsinclude the Kingspan Kooltherm® K–range of rigid phenolic insulation boards. Theresults showed a well balanced performance in terms of sustainability, and that KingspanInsulation was already meeting legislation or best practice in most areas, even movingbeyond best practice in some.

A year later in 2005 and then again in 2006, Arup returned to the Pembridge site toaudit Kingspan Insulation’s progress.

The results showed a substantial improvement across all four sectors of the Arup SPeAR®

tool. Once again, the conclusions of the audit are being made public.

Kingspan Insulation was the first and still is the only construction material manufacturer tohave taken this bold move and openly publish the results.

Contact the Kingspan Insulation Marketing Department for a copy ofthe publication that contains, in full, Arup’s 2005 and 2006Assessment reports and Kingspan Insulation’s current action plan (seerear cover).

Kingspan Thermataper® Systems comprise tapered rigid urethane insulation boardsdesigned for warm deck flat roofing applications. They provide insulation and drainagein one system.

BENEFITS

Solves the problems associated with water pondingRainwater ponding can decrease the life of a roof by subjecting the membrane to attackfrom thermal stress, alkaline formation and mould growth. Kingspan Thermataper®

Systems provide suitable falls, eliminating the risk of ponding.

Compatible with all waterproofing systemsSystems are available with a range of facings ensuring compatibility with all highperformance waterproofing systems.

Easily achieves U–valuesEasily achieve the U–values required by Building Regulations / Standards.

No load bearing implications for new or existing structuresKingspan Thermataper® Systems are estimated to be as little as 1% of the weight of asolution using screed to falls with flat insulation boards.

Easy to handle and installSystems are simple and easy to install with full instructions provided and the boardspre–mitred to your specification.

Ideal for new build or refurbishmentAre ideal for both new build and for the refurbishment of existing flat roofs. Forrefurbishment when the existing insulation / substrate and waterproofing is sound, thetapered board and a new waterproofing membrane can simply be laid on top of theoriginal waterproofing.

Environmentaly friendly and less wasteAre manufactured without the use of CFCs/HCFCs and have zero Ozone DepletionPotential. Pre–mitred boards herald an end to wasted material and the cost and timetaken for disposal.

Complete design flexibilityEncompass a range of tapered insulation boards which can be designed to providesuitable roof falls of between 1:30 and 1:120 – directing rainwater to your existing orplanned drainage system.

Single point of responsibilityUnlike traditional methods of achieving drainage, by using a Kingspan Thermataper®

System a single trade is adopted when creating a fall – single point of responsibility.

Saves timeBecause the roof falls are pre–designed and pre–cut, there is no need to design complexstructural supports or wait for screeds to dry.

Roof SystemShowing Pre-mitred Boards(Falls have been exaggerated)

Kingspan Thermataper® Systems are now being offered with off-site pre-cut taperedboards for forming hip and valley mitres within a Thermataper System. This offers variousbenefits to the installer; such as reduced installation times by eliminating the need for onsite mitre cutting, thus leading to reduced labour costs. It has been noted that the timetaken to install a pre-mitred Thermataper system could be reduced by approx 50%(depending on roof design) compared with traditional methods. In addition, the environmental benefit is key as far less waste is generated.

Summary of benefits:

● reduced on site waste; ● reduced installation times; and ● reduced installation costs.

FIXING DETAILS● Kingspan Thermaroof™ TR26 LPC/FM should be fixed in

accordance with the Factory Mutual specification for Class1 steel deck constructions using other FM approved roofcomponents (if required).

● The boards should be laid over a non–bituminous vapour control layer (if required). Boards should be laid with edges butted and in a break bonded patternlaid at right angles to the edges of the roof or diagonallyacross the roof.

● Ensure that all joints are supported by the deck.● An FM approved vapour control layer should be continued 25 mm past the insulation

abutting the parapet and sealed.● The boards are normally secured using mechanical fixing systems and washers

appropriate to the substrate.● The number of fixings required will vary with the geographical location of the building

and the height and width of the roof.● A minimum of 6 No. fixings should be placed within the individual board area giving a

minimum fixing rate of 2.10 fixings per square metre (2.4 x 1.2 m boards) see Figure 2.● Each fixing should incorporate a square or circular plate washer (50 mm x 50 mm or

50 mm diameter).● The waterproofing membrane (FM Approved) if required can now be laid over the

boards in accordance with the manufacturers specification.● At the completion of each day’s work, a night joint must be made to prevent water

penetrating the roof construction.● Boards should be cut using a sharp knife or a fine toothed saw.

Warning – do not stand on or otherwise support your weight on these Kingspan Insulation products unless theyare fully supported by a load bearing surface.

Kingspan Thermaroof™ TR27 LPC/FM is also available in a tapered version called KingspanThermataper® TT47 LPC/FM. See page 13.

FIXING DETAILS● Kingspan Thermaroof™ TR27 LPC/FM should be fixed in

accordance with the Factory Mutual specification for Class 1Steel Deck constructions using other FM approved roofcomponents (if required).

● On metal decks the boards should be laid over thevapour control layer break–bonded with their long edgesat right angles to the trough opening, or alternativelydiagonally across the corrugation line. (Other types of deckmay not conform to Factory Mutual Specifications. Pleaseconsult the Technical Service Department for advice on suitable decks).

● The joints should be lightly butted and all joints supported by the deck. ● The boards should be laid over a non–bituminous vapour control layer

(FM Approved if required). ● An FM approved vapour control layer should be continued 25 mm past the insulation

abutting the parapet and sealed.● The boards are normally secured using mechanical fixings and washers. ● The number of fixings required will vary with the geographical location of the building

and the height and width of the roof.● Each fixing should incorporate a square or circular plate washer (50 mm x 50 mm or

50 mm diameter).

For a 2.4 x 1.2 m board● A minimum of 6 No. fixings should be placed within the individual board area giving a

minimum fixing rate of 2.10 fixings per square metre, see figure 2.For a 1.2 x 0.6 m board

● A minimum of 4 No. fixings should be placed within the individual board area and besited >50 mm and <150 mm from the corners of the board giving a minimum fixing rateof 5.55 fixings per square metre, see figure 2.

● The waterproofing membrane (FM Approved) if required can now be laid over theboards in accordance with the manufacturers specification.

● At the completion of each day’s work, a night joint must be made to prevent waterpenetrating the roof construction.

● Boards should be cut using a sharp knife or a fine toothed saw.Warning – do not stand on or otherwise support your weight on these Kingspan Insulation products unless theyare fully supported by a load bearing surface.

PARTIALLY BONDED BUILT–UP FELT AND MASTIC ASPHALT WATERPROOFING

Insulated Composite Timber Deck with or without Insulation Between Joists

FIXING DETAILSInsulated Composite Timber Deck

● Suitable for use over joists at 400 mm and 600 mm centres.● Cutting of sheets should be carried out using a fine toothed saw.● Lay sheets, plywood facing upwards, with long edges following

joists and with shorter edge joints staggered (see Figure 2).● All edges of the sheets should be supported. The use of 50 x 50 mm cross–noggings

will ensure this along the sheets’ shorter edges and where sheets may be cut atopenings or details.

● A wide bead of non–setting gun–grade mastic sealant, applied along the centre ofthe joists and cross–noggings will ensure a continuous vapour control layer on theunderside of the sheets. The mastic sealant must be wide enough to accommodatetwo sheet edges butted together (see Figure 3). Refer to:

Adshead Ratcliffe & Co Ltd +44 (0) 1773 826 661C M Sealants +44 (0) 2085 196 358

● Sheets should be lightly butted (approx. 2 mm gap) whilst maintaining a 20 mmbearing at edges over supporting timbers.

● For insulant thicknesses over 50 mm, sheets should be fixed with low profile oval head screw fixings. These are to be placed at 200 mm centres around the sheetedges and at 300 mm centres along any intermediate supporting timbers. Refer to:

EJOT UK Limited +44 (0) 1977 687 040Flat Roofing Supplies +44 (0) 1293 590 970SFS Intec Limited +44 (0) 1132 085 500

● Fixings should not be positioned within 10 mm of the sheet edges or within 50 mm ofthe corners.

● Care should be taken to keep the decking dry prior to waterproofing. Always utilise atype 3G felt as the base layer to a 3 layer felt system with a fully bonded perimeterzone, commonly 500 mm wide.

● To avoid cold bridging, ensure the wall insulation around the roof perimeter is carried upinto the parapet as shown in Figure 1. Alternatively, 25–30 mm CFC/HCFC–free rigidurethane insulation is typically used on the face of the parapet prior to waterproofing.

Between Joist Insulation● The insulation boards should be installed between the roof joists

prior to the installation of the insulated roof deck.● To ensure the insulation boards are flush with the top surface of the

joists side–nail timber battens to the joists or partially drivegalvanised nails into the side of the joists in the appropriate positionto provide a ‘stop’. Nails should remain 40 mm proud of the joists.

● Measure the distance between the joists before cutting the boardsas spacings can vary.

● Cut boards individually to fit the joist spacing using a sharp knife or fine toothed saw.

● Lay the correct thickness of insulation between the joists so they are supported by the battens / nails.

● In all cases ensure that insulation boards between joists are fittedtightly. Fill any gaps between the boards and the joists withexpanding urethane sealant.

● Insulate any narrow gaps between a joist and the perimeter wallwith specially cut pieces of board. Support these on blocks nailedto the underside of the joists.

● To prevent flotation, wind uplift and UV degradation, boards must be loaded with atleast a 50 mm deep layer of washed rounded gravel nominal size 20 mm to 40 mm.Boards may be overlaid with a geotextile (a non–woven polyester or polypropylenewith a minimum weight of 140 g/m2) lapped 300 mm to allow the gravel ballast tobe maintained at 50 mm. Without the inclusion of the geotextile the thickness ofgravel ballast and Kingspan Styrozone® board should be in the ratio of 1:1.

● Where concrete paving slabs are the preferred ballast these should be laid oncruciform supports (minimum base diameter 150 mm). Paviors 600 x 600 mm and50 mm deep should be used for boards of all thicknesses.

● Kingspan Purlcrete®chevron is recommended for use as insulated upstands. ● Where the possibility of flotation exists, every 10 mm increase in the insulant thickness

above 40 mm should be reflected by a 5 mm slab thickness increase.● A 75 mm peripheral margin of round washed pebbles should be allowed at parapet

/ roof projections when pavior ballast is adopted.● Boards should be cut using a sharp knife or a fine toothed saw.● Kingspan Styrozone® H350 / Kingspan Styrozone® N300 is also available for

use in roof gardens and car park deck applications. For further details please contactthe Kingpan Insulation Technical Service Department.

● A 20% adjustment of thermal performance should be allowed for the cooling effect ofrainwater draining beneath the boards in accordance with Section 3 BS 5250: 2002(Code of practice for control of Condensation in Buildings).

INTRODUCTIONKingspan Styrozone® H350 / Kingspan Styrozone® N300 is recommended for use inprotected membrane flat roofs and roof gardens.

Kingspan Styrozone® is a high performance rigid extruded polystyrene insulant that ismanufactured without the use of CFCs/HCFCs and has zero Ozone Depletion Potential(ODP). Its closed cell structure makes it ideal for these applications as rigid extrudedpolystyrene is the only material approved for use where it will be subject to freeze / thawand wetting / drying cycles.

Kingspan Styrozone® H350 uses an HFA blowing agent whereas Kingspan Styrozone®

N300 uses a carbon dioxide blowing agent. Both are in compliance with the MontrealProtocol and both are available rebated or tongue and groove on all four edges.

FIXING DETAILS● Before any work commences the roof waterproofing should be

completed and the roof completely watertight and wind stable. The roof should be graded to allow the correct falls to allrainwater outlets and the surface smooth without largeprojections steps or gaps.

● A full wind uplift calculation should be produced to verifythe fixing specification over the roof. This should beassessed in accordance with BS 6399 – 2: 1987 (Codeof practice for wind loads). This service is available free ofcharge from the Kingpan Insulation Technical Service Department.

● The design restraint of the Kingspan Purlcrete®chevron system when interlocked intoan array can be up to five times the panel self weight. Please contact the KingpanInsulation Technical Service Department for further information.

● Full details of the laying procedure for this product should be obtained from theKingspan Insulation Technical Service Department.

● Double entry rainwater outlet or gullies should be specified to allow rainwater to bedrained from the roof surface at both membrane and upper surface level.

● The boards have a pre–finished, durable, smooth upper surface and no furthertreatment is necessary, (suitable for maintenance access).

● To protect the upstand detail from UV light and thermal cycling KingspanPurlcrete®chevron can be fitted vertically (see figure 2).

● The 75 mm peripheral margin should be insulated separately with extrudedpolystyrene and ballasted to prevent wind uplift.

● An allowance of 20% of the calculated thermal resistance should be made tocompensate for saturated roofs during long periods of rain, in accordance withBS 5250: 2002 (Code of practice for control of condensation in buildings).

● Where the panels are perforated to allow pipes or other roof projections to passthrough, holes should be cut cleanly using a masonry saw. If the stability of the roof isaffected, additional restraint may be required.

● The roof deck should be close boarded to prevent any damage if used as a workingplatform after the system has been laid. On completion the roof should be swept cleanand all debris removed.

● When ever work is interrupted free edges of the laid panels under which wind maybe able to blow should be temporarily ballasted (if allowed) or adequately secured toavoid wind blow off of the partially completed roof area.
