The protected membrane roof insulation shall beKingspan Purlcretechevron comprising ____mmthick rigid extruded polystyrene insulation with a10mm thick polymer fibre reinforced hydraulic cementtopping manufactured to BS EN ISO 9002: 1994 byKingspan Insulation Limited and shall be applied inaccordance with the instructionsissued by them.

Details also available in NBS PLUS.NBS users should refer to clause(s):J21 150, J21 710, J41 150, J41 710, J42 120, J42 810 (Standard and Intermediate)

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

WIND UPLIFT CALCULATIONSA full wind uplift calculation should be produced toverify the fixing specification of the KingspanPurlcretechevron over the roof. This service isavailable free of charge from our Technical ServicesDepartment (see rear cover).

DESIGN LOADSThe suitability of the structure under consideration toaccept or withstand the design imposed loadsincluding the increased dead load of the KingspanPurlcretechevron system plus any necessary ballastand design snow loads should be verified accordingto BS 6399: Part 3: 1988 (Code of practice forimposed roof loads).

WIND LOADINGSWind loadings should be assessed in accordancewith BS 6399: Part 2: 1997 (Code of practice forwind loads). BRE Digest 346 Parts 1-8 can also bereferenced for wind loading.

DESIGN DYNAMIC PRESSUREThe design dynamic pressure q should be calculatedin accordance with BS 6399: Part 2: 1997 (Code ofpractice for wind loads).

EXTERNAL PRESSURE CO-EFFICIENTThe external pressure co-efficient, Cpe, should beapplied in accordance with BS 6399: Part 2: 1997(Code of practice for wind loads). This figure is subjectto a reduction as stated in the following section.

REDUCTION OF EXTERNAL PRESSURECO-EFFICIENT VALUEIt is recommended in BRE Digest No. 295 (Stabilityunder Wind Load of Loose-Laid External RoofInsulation Boards) that the uplift force co-efficient on asingle insulation board, Cf is taken as one-third of theexternal pressure co-efficient, Cpe, applicable to thearea in which the insulation board lies.

PARAPET & EDGE DETAILParapet and edge detail should comply withparagraph (g) of BRE Digest 295, as detailed in‘Loose Laid Systems’ on page 5 (see also Figures1 and 2).

DESIGN RESTRAINTThe design restraint of the Kingspan Purlcretechevronsystem when interlocked into an array is:-

Stretcher bond array Self weight x 2Chevron array Self weight x 3Chevron array plus clips Self weight x 5 Not interlocked into array Self weight

The normal and recommended laying pattern forKingspan Purlcretechevron is the chevron pattern(see page 9). This method offers additional restraintvalues of three times self weight where the panels arelocked into the array. This restraint value can beincreased to five times self weight by the use ofChevron stainless steel clips. When the KingspanPurlcretechevron panels are laid to a stretcherbond pattern the restraint value when locked into thearray is twice self weight. Panels with a free edgeand not locked into the array should be considered asself weight only. Whatever pattern is specified, theKingspan Purlcretechevron system should be laidso that the rebate interlock is always maintained.Where panels have to be cut the continuity ofinterlock should be maintained by the use ofPromenade Clips.

EDGE DETAIL ADDITIONAL RESTRAINTWhere the design requires additional ballast ormechanical restraint over and above the self weightvalues offered by the various methods of laying asdescribed above, this is normally achieved by the useof 50 mm concrete paving slabs loose laid over thepanels at centres as appropriate to the design values(see Figure 1).

Alternatively it is possible to incorporatePurlcretepromenade Edge Panels (see literature forKingspan Purlcretepromenade).

Figure 3 RAIL FIXING SYSTEM

RAIL FIXING SYSTEMThe rail fixing system should be used on those roofsthat will not accept the additional loading imposed byfurther ballasting.

The exact design will vary with each roof and ourTechnical Services Department (see rear cover) shouldbe contacted in order that they can make theirrecommendations. Basic lay-out details are given inFigure 3.

MECHANICAL RESTRAINT PERIMETER DETAILMechanical restraint systems can be used in somecircumstances in place of or in conjunction withballast. Suitable trims which allow anchorage to thevertical face of perimeter walls etc. may beincorporated into the design. On roofs without aparapet a trim or flashing should be specified toprevent wind blowing under the perimeter panels (seeFigure 2). This will also apply to the free edge of theKingspan Purlcretechevron wherever the continuityof the insulation is interrupted.

BONDED SYSTEMSOnly partially bonded systems can be considered forsuch applications in order to allow drainage ofrainwater from the roof. The application pattern of thespecified adhesive system must ensure that thedrainage plane between the insulant and the roofwaterproofing membrane is always maintained.

Both the specified waterproofing and adhesivemanufacturers advice should be sought as to thesuitability of their material or system to adequatelybond the Kingspan Purlcretechevron to thespecified substrate bearing in mind the nature of thesubstrate, the rigid extruded polystyrene insulationbacking of Kingspan Purlcretechevron, thepercentage bond area, and the distribution pattern.In any case the wind uplift resistance, without anyreductions for layout or configuration, should becalculated in accordance with BS 6399: Part 2:1997 (Code of practice for wind loads).

LOOSE LAID SYSTEMSIn order to provide stability against wind-induced upliftand normally being reliant on self weight, KingspanPurlcretechevron can be laid loose in conjunctionwith additional ballasting or mechanical restraintwhere wind conditions are appropriate.

The use of the Kingspan Purlcretechevron systemshould take into account the recommendations givenin BRE Digest No. 295, from which the followingextracts have been taken.

a. The existing roof on which the system should belaid should be impermeable and should itself ableto withstand the design imposed loads, namelythe increased dead load due to the weight of theinsulation system and, the design snow load asdetailed in BS 6399: Part 3: 1988 (Code ofpractice for imposed roof loads).

b. The insulation boards should be laid directly on,but not bonded to, the surface of the roof.Bonded systems should be designed to withstandthe full loads given by BS 6399: Part 2: 1997(Code of practice for wind loads).

c. The top surface of each insulation board shouldbe flush with it’s neighbours.

d. The area of each individual board should notexceed 2 m2.

e. Any space remaining between the bottom of theinsulation and the roof surface should be less than5 mm high, when averaged over the whole areaof the board.

f. The gap between each board and its neighboursshould not be less than 1 mm when averagedover the length of the joint.

g. Wind should be prevented from blowing underthe boards at the perimeter of the roof, or at anyuninsulated area of the roof, either by means ofan eaves trim or flashing, or by a parapet.The height of the parapet, measured from the topof the insulation system, should be greater than thethickness of the insulation system and also greaterthan the distance between the rear face of theparapet and the edge of the first board (e.g. thewidth of any gutter).

5

RAINWATER OUTLETSDouble entry rainwater outlets or gullies should bespecified to allow rainwater to be drained from theroof surface at both the membrane level and at theupper surface level.

SURFACE TREATMENTThe boards have a pre-finished, durable, smoothupper surface and no further treatment is necessary.

UPSTAND PROTECTIONTo protect the upstand detail from UV light andthermal cycling the specifier may wish to considerfitting Purlcretechevron vertically as shown below.

WALKWAYSWalkways should be designed by use of pavingslabs overlaid on the Kingspan Purlcretechevrontiles.

Figure 4 ALTERNATIVE UPSTAND DETAIL


The R-values and l-values quoted un thisdocument are based on the procedures for thedetermination of the aged values of thermal

resistance and thermal conductivity, laid downin the harmonised European standard BS EN

13164, using so called 90:90 principles.Comparison with alternative products may not

be appropriate unless the same procedureshave been followed.

THERMAL CONDUCTIVITYThe thermal conductivity (l-value) of the extrudedpolystyrene component of the panel is 0.028 W/m.K,and that of the polymer fibre reinforced cementtopping is 1.4 W/m.K.

THERMAL RESISTANCESThermal resistance (R-value) varies with thickness andis calculated by dividing the thickness of the individualcomponent (expressed in metres) by its thermalconductivity and adding the resultant figures together.

Additionally, an allowance of 20% of the calculatedinsulation thermal resistance is made to compensatefor saturated roofs during long periods of rain inaccordance with BS 5250: 1989 (1995) (Code ofpractice for control of condensation in buildings).The following table of design resistance values takesthis allowance into account.

*Product Thickness = insulant thickness + 10 mm polymer fibrereinforced cement topping

TYPICAL U-VALUES

The following examples have been calculated using boththe combined method and the proportional area method.The combined method is required for compliance withBuilding Regulations / Standards revised after the year2000. These examples are based on the use of 150 mmconcrete deck, 50 mm screed and mastic asphaltwaterproofing. In applications with plasterboard ceiling, itis taken to be 12.5 mm plasterboard with a cavitybetween it and the underside of the deck.

If your construction is any different or you needHazardous to Health Regulations 1988 (COSHH)information, please consult our Technical ServicesDepartment.

Combined Method – U-values were calculated usingthe method which has been adopted to bringNational standards in line with the EuropeanStandard calculation method, BS / IS EN ISO 6946:1997 (Building components and building elements.Thermal resistance and thermal transmittance.Calculation method).

Proportional Area Method – the U-values shownbelow were calculated using the proportional areamethod as detailed in The Chartered Institute ofBuilding Services Engineers (CIBSE) Guide A3(Thermal Properties of Building Structures).

NB for the purposes of these calculations the standard ofworkmanship has been assumed good and therefore the correctionfactor for air gaps has been ignored.

The figures below are for guidance only. A detailed U-valuecalculation together with condensation risk analysis should becompleted for each individual project. Please call our TechnicalServices Department for assistance (see rear cover).

THERMAL PROPERTIES


Where the specification calls for the interlock of theKingspan Purlcretechevron system to be reinforcedby the use of Kingspan Purlcretechevron stainlesssteel clips, these should be fitted by inserting thepointed end of the clip immediately below thecementitious topping of the panel so that thepreformed section of the clip fits snugly to the rebatededge. The flat non pointed section of the clip isseated below the adjacent panel. (see Figure 1).

The 75 mm peripheral margin should be insulatedseparately with rigid extruded polystyrene insulationand ballasted to prevent wind uplift.

Roofs without Parapet (see Figure 2)Where the roof is not protected by a suitable parapetit is necessary to ensure that the wind is not allowedto blow under the edge of the KingspanPurlcretechevron panels. During the laying of theKingspan Purlcretechevron system all such edgesmust be temporarily secured until final completion ofthe edge detail using trims, mechanical restraints orpermanent ballasting as appropriate. Where the useof temporary ballast is permitted, it is advisable toprevent slippage over unprotected edges. Continuelaying the remainder of the panels maintaining thedirection of left and right hand panels as determinedat the commencement.

STRETCHER BOND PATTERN LAYING PROCEDURE(Brick bond)This method of laying Kingspan Purlcretechevronshould only be considered for those roof areas thatwill not accommodate the Chevron pattern.

Roofs with ParapetAlways start laying at the prevailing windward cornerof the roof and work towards the leeward corner orside. (In the UK and Ireland the prevailing wind isusually South Westerly or Westerly). Create a marginby starting 75 mm in from the perimeter and lay onerow of Kingspan Purlcretechevron panels downone edge of the roof. The second row is then laidstarting with a half panel. These should interlock withthe first row and with the panels adjacent to them. Alternate all subsequent rows across the fullwidth or length of the roof. The 75 mm peripheralmargin should be insulated separately with extrudedpolystyrene and ballasted to prevent uplift.

SITEWORK

STANDARD LOOSE LAID SPECIFICATIONBefore any work commences, the roof waterproofingshould be complete and the roof completely water-tight and wind stable. The roof should be graded toallow the correct falls to all roof rainwater outlets andthe surface smooth without large projections steps orgaps. Where gaps are unavoidable, the maximum un-supported span of the Kingspan Purlcretechevronpanels should be 100 mm. Care should be exercisedto ensure that wind cannot blow under the panels atsuch points.

CHEVRON PATTERN LAYING PROCEDURE

Roofs with ParapetTo facilitate directional laying of the KingspanPurlcretechevron panels laid to a chevron pattern,the product is supplied in equal numbers of left andright handed panels. Start laying at the mostwindward corner of the roof and work towards theleeward corner or side. (In the UK and Ireland theprevailing wind is usually South Westerly or Westerly).Strike a right angle at this corner of the roof,preferably 75 mm in from the inner edge of theparapet. Lay one panel adjacent to the perimeter ofone edge of the roof and lay a second panel of theopposite hand at right angles to it, the short end ofthis panel fitting to the long edge of the other panelso as to complete the rebate and form an exact ninetydegree angle. A 1 mm gap should be createdbetween all panels. Continue laying the remainder ofthe panels maintaining the direction of left and righthand panels as determined at the commencement.(see Figure 5).


Roofs without ParapetWhere the edge detail does not include a parapet, ballast or restrain all edge panels to preventwind uplift. Alternatively temporarily ballast or restrainthe panels prior to the application of the specified edgetrim or mechanical fixing detail. All ballasting orrestraint irrespective of its permanent or temporarynature should fully meet the wind loading requirementsfor the roof. Except for those panels at the perimeter ofthe roof, each panel should be fully interlocked with theadjacent panel or be specially anchored or ballasted.

Continue across the full length or width of the roofensuring that the panels are interlocked and are flushwith the adjacent panels. Gaps between panelsshould not be less than 1 mm.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL METHODS OF LAYINGAt rainwater outlets or gullies it is essential to ensurethat rainwater can be drained from the roof surface atboth the membrane level and at the upper surfacelevel. This can be achieved by the use of double entrygullies or outlets. Where the panels are laid over aroof surface that has a change in roof slope to facilitate rainwater drainage, the polymer fibrereinforced cement topping should be cut with amasonry saw along the line of the change in plane.This will reduce the risk of the panels cracking alongthis line. The saw cut should be left open. Where it isfound to be necessary to cut right through a panel theinterlock must be restored. This can be achieved by theuse of opposing Promenade Clips of appropriatethickness.

Where the panelling is perforated to allow pipes orother roof projections to pass through, the holesshould be cut cleanly using a masonry saw.A minimum 5 mm gap should be allowed betweenthe panel and the projecting object. Where theseholes may effect the stability of the roof, as regardswind up-lift, additional restraint of the panels shouldbe provided.

Where the roof deck is to be used by other tradesas a working platform after the KingspanPurlcretechevron system has been laid, the roofshould be close boarded to prevent any damage tothe completed insulation or deck. On completion theroof should be swept clean and all contractualequipment or debris removed.

DAILY WORKING PRACTICEWhen ever work is interrupted free edges of the laidpanels under which wind may be able to blow shouldbe temporarily ballasted (if allowed) or adequatelysecured to avoid wind blow off of the partiallycompleted roof area.
