Insulation of material is essential for creating barriers inside of your building and different temperatures outside to prevent heat or sound from being transmitted Insulation serves several important purposes in steel buildings.
2. Insulation for Steel Buildings
• Insulation of material is essential for creating barriers
inside of your building and different temperatures
outside to prevent heat or sound from being
transmitted Insulation serves several important
purposes in steel buildings.
• There are many types of insulation available on the
market, but depending on your local energy codes
and the intended use of your structure, you may be
forced to use a particular form of insulation.
3. Considerations When Selecting Your
Steel Building Insulation
• A high R-value, or thermal break.
• Condensation elimination.
• Humidity resistant.
• Easy to install.
• Energy efficiency
• Liner panels
• Permeability
• Workability
4. Advantages of Insulating A Steel
Building
• Reduce Condensation
• Manage Temperature
• Absorb sound
• Save on Energy
• High R-value (thermal break)
• Vapour barrier
• Easy installation
5. Types of Insulation Materials
• Reflective Foil
Reflective foil is a radiant barrier that has a
thin layer of reflective foil on one or both
sides and is designed to reflect heat.
• Fiberglass Blanket
This is the most common type of material
used for steel building insulation due to its low
cost and ease of installation.
6. Types of Insulation Materials
• Insulated metal panel
Insulated metal panels are exterior wall or roof panels
made of steel skin and an insulating foam core.
• Foam board
Foam board materials are used for rigid insulation
materials that function by trapping air in individual
cells of the foam.
• Spray-on Cellulose
• Spray-on cellulose is a paper product with fire-
retardant properties.
