Embodiment Construction

[0023] Such as figure 1 As shown in , a building roof and wall insulation system 10 includes installing insulation elements within the roof and wall structural features of a building 12 . The roof structure 14 includes roof panels or roof sheets 16 supported by purlins 18 . A purlin is a structural member in a roof that spans parallel to the building eaves 20 and supports the roof deck or sheet 16 . Sandwiched between the purlins 18 and the intermediate roof panels 16 are thermal insulation elements, various embodiments of which are described in more detail below.

[0024] The insulation system 10 detailed herein is equally applicable to insulating wall panels 22 of a building 12 to limit heat transfer. The structural features disclosed herein can also be used to retrofit existing roofs or walls to enhance the thermal resistance of buildings. The wall panels 22 are supported by the wall beams 24 , which cooperate with the columns 26 and the wall panels 22 . Surrounding bea...

Abstract

A system for insulating a building comprising a first layer of rolled insulation disposed atop a longitudinally extending upper chord of a roof truss, a purlin or a girt of a wall. Discrete insulating spacer members are intermittently disposed atop the first insulation layer and along the longitudinally extending chord, purlin or girt. A three sided bridge with a plurality of tab elements overlaying and contiguous with the insulating spacer members. A second layer of rolled insulation disposed atop the bridge and panel clips secured with a fastener extending through each of the second layer of insulation, bridge, insulating spacer member, first layer of insulation and upper chord.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims the benefit of priority to US Application Serial No. 62 / 117,214, filed February 17, 2015. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates generally to the field of insulating roof and wall structures and related methods. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to the field of insulating metal roof and metal wall structures in new and retrofit structures. Background technique [0004] Insulation has been used in metal buildings for decades to impede heat transfer through roof and wall structures. Conventional roof and wall insulation arrangements use felt insulation. The thermal resistance provided by the insulation is compromised when it is compressed or tamped. In conventional metal roof and wall insulation systems, when the roof structure is applied to the top of the roof purlins, or the wall structure to the girders, the thick felt insulation is compressed, reducing the thermal resistance of ...
