D-Max Wall is a new assembly and continuous insulation solution which allows spray polyurethane foam insulation to be installed from the interior while managing thermal bridging of the studs and structure.
Kingspan Insulated Panels North America has released a new white paper, Finding the Meaning in the R-Value and U-Factor of Insulated Metal Panel Building Envelopes, providing guidance for architects and specifiers on evaluating the thermal testing of insulated metal panels (IMPs).
THIS RESIDENCE HALL WAS GIVEN THE THREE C’S: CONCRETE, COLLABORATION, AND COLOR. AND WITH THAT, THERE’S CONCRETE EVIDENCE TO HOW A PRECAST APPROACH PROVIDES SOLUTIONS.
You might describe precast concrete construction as “controlled efficiency.” While weather conditions, supply chain disruptions and labor availability can all threaten to throw a project off course, a Midwestern residence hall housing future artists demonstrates the efficiency precast concrete construction offers for enclosures that must meet stringent performance criteria, tight production schedules, and discerning occupants.
AISI has published AISI S250-21, as a source for calculating the thermal transmittance (U-factors) of walls and ceiling/roof envelope assembles that contain cold-formed steel framing.
CertainTeed introduces InsulPure Fiberglass Building Insulation. With a newer, more efficient fiberglass binder formula, InsulPure offers better performance and increased quality with the same ease of installation.
