Underdeck Insulation Of Metal Roofsheeting

Pre Engineered Building (PEB) Systems are a complete package of low rise steel buildings manufactured and delivered to the site by a single supplier. The package comprises of rigid structural steel, cladding system and building accessories. In a typical PEB structure, the roof accounts for approx. 40% to 50% of total heat gain, while walls account for approx. 15% to 20% of heat gain. Also a metallic structure transmits noise of rains and other clamorous activity outside very easily.

PEBs need to be insulated for the following reasons:

• Minimize heat gain & maximize thermal comfort.
• In case it is air conditioned building minimize energy loss, cooling load and operating cost.
• Provide acoustic insulation from heavy rain and other outside noise.
• Prevent moisture condensation thus protect building from corrosion.
• Improve aesthetic look from inside of the building

Suggested Material for Underdeck Insulation:

• Fiberglass wool
• Bubble Foam
