(1) Air Barriers in Building Construction: Understanding Costs, Meeting Performance Standards and Exceeding Codes
* Paper Description New requirements in energy codes, coupled with requirements for better performance, underscore the importance of air barriers for commercial-building performance and code compliance. Use of closed-cell spray polyurethane foam (ccSPF) as a key component in air-barrier assemblies provides good performance characteristics as well as cost and construction advantages. Learn more in this significant review of industry data.
(2) Insulation and Waterproofing for Metal Buildings & Metal Roof Systems
Paper Title Insulation and Waterproofing for Metal Buildings & Metal Roof Systems
* Paper Description In this technical white paper, the use of closed-cell spray polyurethane foam (ccSPF) in metal buildings and metal roof retrofits and re-roofing projects is discussed, demonstrating the benefits of ccSPF for improving building energy efficiency, structural integrity, moisture resistance, and other key performance factors.
(3)Severe Weather and Walls/Roofs - The case for using spray polyurethane form (SPF) in hurricane zones
Severe Weather and Walls/Roofs - The case for using spray polyurethane form (SPF) in hurricane zones
*Building owners and managers, as well as design and construction professionals, need to be more vigilant than ever in their specification and detailing of building assemblies that resist the effects of wind and weather events. For their part, manufacturers, consultants, trade associations and other experts are conducting more in-field performance testing as well as materials studies to make roofing and envelope systems that better protect buildings and their occupants during storms and high wind.
In the following pages, we examine the safety considerations and bottom-line issues that drive the selection and specification of SPF and other building products today. We conclude with six constructive recommendations - an "Action Plan" - for consideration by building designers, constructors, developers and owners concerned about severe weather.
