Foamglas Insulation Board - Application on Underground Structures
Underground Structures: Below Ground Walls It is important to choose an insulation system which will ensure long-term protection of the building and allow full use of the below ground floor levels. The insulation should resist soil pressure and moisture. In combination with a waterproofing system and / or drainage membrane FOAMGLAS® cellular glass provides an excellent risk free system. It is an insulation system and vapour barrier in one material; it prevents water absorption, penetration or tracking by capillary action. Many different systems are available, providing improved performance for waterproof wall constructions and retaining walls. Underground Structures: Below Ground Floors Below ground is usually a difficult environment for an insulation, it may be subjected to vermin, water, moisture and high compressive loads. There is only one opportunity to get the specification right; replacing below ground insulation would be extremely costly. The insulation must provide reliable thermal performance for the entire service life of the building. Technical features and benefits: - Vermin proof FOAMGLAS® cannot rot, it is inorganic, it is vermin-proof and can’t support plant growth. It’s the ideal choice for situations where insulation is in contact with the ground. - High compressive strength FOAMGLAS® supports high compressive loads without deflection or movement. It is the ideal insulation material for load bearing areas, such as, foundations and floors. - Vapour control FOAMGLAS® consists of pure glass, it has a truly hermetically sealed, closed cell, glass structure. It is gas and vapour tight. FOAMGLAS® and its adhesive is vapour tight, providing both: an insulation system and high performance vapour barrier in one material. - Waterproof FOAMGLAS® consists of pure glass, it has a truly hermetically sealed, closed glass cell structure. It is gas and vapour tight. The closed cell structure prevents water absorption, penetration or tracking by capillary action. - Dimensionally stable FOAMGLAS® has a low coefficient of thermal movement in the same range as concrete or steel, the insulation is therefore simply adhesive bonded onto the building structure. - Acid-resistant FOAMGLAS® is re sistant to organic solvents and acids. - Non-toxic FOAMGLAS® is non-toxic, non-hazardous, it does not contaminate the environment; and is easily cut using hand tools. - Does not contaminate the water table.
