Specification:
Thermal Lightweight Aggregate (TLA) & V Screed
Project Overview:
EnergyScreed was requested to provide non-combustible heavy-duty insulation for both roofs and a roof-based plant room. Using the TLA system, EnergyScreed could pour insulation of EPS bound within a cement screed to meet the desired ‘U’ Value.
We installed it using our unique EnergyScreed Screed Factory truck that mixes and pumps huge volumes with no wastage. EnergyScreed could encapsulate services and conduits within a seamless joint-free insulation that achieves an A2 fire rating. We covered the TLA layer with Vebro’s V-Cem to a nominal depth of 100mm.
This was installed with D49 mesh at day joints, and within 48 hours, this was dry enough to apply finishes and the waterproofing system.
The combination of the EnergyScreed Screed Factory, TLA and V-Cem enable the project to enjoy the massive time, management and cost savings. The site had minimal space, so not having to take multiple deliveries of insulation boards, sand and cement enabled other trades to continue unimpeded. This specification eliminated many of the construction risks
