Most places with suspended floors with have ventilation blocks on the outside walls, so no problem.

From what I’ve looked into, that was caused more by bad building design than from the panels, which as far as I can tell, did a amazing/horrid job of holding in the heat from the fire, causing it to spread faster. But I’ve only looked into it for 20-30 minutes after seeing this.

i thought that was a different manufacturer, and that there was fraud uncovered in the fire rating process.

What are the other ways to do it?

Unfortunately, you will be trapped forever

you dont we lose thousands of workers every year to tragic insulation lock in incidents

why ?

Vacuum insulated panels have R-values up to five times higher than conventional insulation of the same thickness. Normally, heat transfers through both the foam structure and the air. If the air isn't there, there's much less stuff for the heat to transfer through. Simple.

Hi Jonathon, terraces and balconies will often need insulation as a requirement if they are a refurbishment or a new build over a heated room/habitable space. This also helps the thermal efficiency in the room below.

Hi Sam, usually when constructing a terrace area for a refurbishment or a new build above a heated room/habitable space, there will be a requirement to put insulation in the deck of the balcony/terrace. This also helps the thermal efficiency in the room below.

You need R values of individual materials to help you calculate the overall value of a stuctural unit. (the U-value). Mainly because Building Regs require standards to be met in terms of insulation and sound transfer. These Regs have got considerably tighter with regard to insulation of properties over the years. Buildings used to be built of solid brick or stone, then cavity walls came in to help restrict the transfer of moisture and as a result help the heat retention (or loss). Then cavities had to have some insulation put in to further increase the insulation of the building. Now you have to have a 100mm cavity filled with insulation . Also floors need to be insulated in a similar manner. So, yes you need R-values to help you calculate the overall U-value.

In the middle contains nothing or absence or so-called vacuum. if you have a perfect vacuum you should receive almost no heat conduction and no convection. The problem lays in structure because you need something like up to a cm thickness of vacuum chamber to properly use vacuum insulation properly. The system should require a way to depreasurize the whole system from time to time because there is nothing perfectly airtight just probably a really slow ten-year process in this product. My recommendation would be it's too complex and expensive for the regular house. But I recommend not this product but something different alternative like aerogel since its cuttable can use same matter mineral wool just around twice effective.

@@ignasbartkus2595 what about something like this for acoustic isolation. Say for a theater

@@ignasbartkus2595 How do VIPs have structure while minimizing conduction thru material? Unlike grapes which shrink when they dry out, aerogels are made in such a way that the liquid is removed without the structure collapsing. Why don't grapes (etc) maintain their shape when dried out? As I understand it, as water gradually leaves, the remaining materials are still wet and so stick together due to water surface tension. Aerogels are made by converting the liquid in [anything with water content] to gas in ... an indirect way (with the intermediary stage not being solid either, perhaps something more like plasma). (That's the extent of my knowledge on the matter.) I think fumed silica is the most common (despite being most expensive) VIP core material. Fumed silica is a powder, so I don't think silica aerogel can be made from fumed silica. Do you know / have any guesses: How do VIPs have structure while minimizing conduction thru material?

@@SlyNine Load bearing strawbale buildings are inexpensive and very insulative. Houses made like this in the 1800 are still standing well..

MEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I’m here.

I’m only doing this cause I don’t want a bad grade and my fucking teacher is holding me back intill I finish all this shit

Exactly what I thought

@@northeastcorals With Kingspan nilvent membrane you don't need an air gap if provided with 75mm tape on the membrane

Eps is better but the problems you are talking about are structural problems. You can easily improve these problems
