Armatherm™ FRR structural thermal break material provides a combination of low thermal conductivity and high compressive strength and has been used in thousands of structural steel framing connections, transferring load in moment and shear conditions. Armatherm™ FRR thermal break material can support up 310 N/mm2 and has an R value of 0.9 per 25mm. The material is made of a reinforced, thermoset resin which is fire resistant and has very limited creep under load, making it the ideal m...

In addition to the heat flow normally transmitted through the building envelope due to air leakage for example, multi directional heat flows are created by thermal bridges. Due to these three dimensional heat flow paths, it is difficult to use traditional area weighted averaging to obtain the accurate effects of a thermal bridge. The heat loss contribution of thermal bridging on expected building envelope performance is calculated most accurately using thermal modelling. Moreover, whole building...

Balcony Canopy Thermal Bridging Solution Balcony Thermal Bridging Solution The most common interface details for structural framing are canopies and balconies that use cantilevered steel or aluminium elements. These elements are typically connected to slab edges or spandrel beams on the interior side of the thermal envelope passing through insulation and air barrier layers. The R value of a wall assembly can be reduced by as much as 60% due to thermal bridging at balcony and canopy connections....

Continuous insulation is almost always compromised by metallic structural connections such as clips and girts which create thermal bridging when connected to steel stud framing. These connections in conjunction with the steel studs have a significant impact on the U value of wall assemblies. Insulation effectiveness can be reduced by as much as 50% due to these heat flow paths. Armatherm™ Z GIRTs improve the U value of cladding and wall panel assemblies by eliminating the use of highly con...
