Insulation and Waterproofing for Metal Buildings & Metal Roof Systems
Insulation and Waterproofing for Metal Buildings & Metal Roof Systems
In this Commercial construction technical white paper, we examine general principles and some recommended practices for selecting, designing, and erecting hybrid metal building systems using ccSPF. Solutions for commonly used building systems are discussed, for both new construction and renovation applications. Attention is given to typical dimensions, materials, surface treatments, and construction approaches for these situations. Performance expectations are also outlined, such as durability, energy efficiency, sustainability considerations, and maintenance requirements. Finally, new developments in the codes and standards affecting ccSPF and metal construction are reviewed. Case studies are presented to highlight the real-world track record of ccSPF construction approaches for metal buildings.
