In a roof, the placement of the insulation plays a big difference. Unlike a traditional cold roof design where the insulation is only placed between rafters, a #warmroof has an insulation layer across the entire roof directly under the waterproofing system. With a warm roof, the building structure benefits from being warmer in winter and cooler in summer, lowering energy bills and improving carbon emissions. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gtbW7phA

Masonry is the most environmentally friendly building system available! Masonry construction provides natural insulation benefits due to its thermal mass properties. This means that masonry buildings can regulate interior temperatures more efficiently, reducing the need for heating and cooling. Masonry materials like brick, and stone have additional benefits, too! They don’t emit volatile gases or toxins during a fire, creating a safer indoor environment. Over 70% of buildings worldwide are built with masonry, making it a tried-and-true method. Masonry materials can be easily recycled or repurposed, resulting in less waste and a lower carbon footprint. By choosing masonry construction, you’re not only building a sustainable future but also creating a structure that will stand the test of time. Learn more about how Authentic Masonry and Stone can help you build a greener tomorrow at https://lnkd.in/g3AQzuJw. #authenticmasonryandstone #masonryexcellence #masonry #projectpartner #masonrycontractor #stone #clientcollaboration

What Are The Benefits Of Using Wood Fibre Insulation On CLT Buildings? Environmental Sustainability: Both CLT and wood fibre insulation are sustainable materials made from renewable resources. Using them together enhances the overall sustainability of the building, reducing its carbon footprint compared to traditional construction materials. Thermal Performance: Wood fibre insulation provides excellent thermal insulation properties, helping to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures year-round. This can lead to reduced energy consumption for heating and cooling, resulting in lower utility bills and less reliance on fossil fuels. Moisture Regulation: Wood fibre insulation has natural moisture-regulating properties, absorbing and releasing moisture to help maintain optimal humidity levels inside the building. This can contribute to a healthier indoor environment by preventing mould and mildew growth. Acoustic Performance: CLT buildings often benefit from good acoustic properties due to the mass of the timber panels. Adding wood fibre insulation can further enhance sound insulation, reducing noise transmission between rooms and from external sources, and improving occupant comfort. Overall, using wood fibre insulation on CLT buildings offers a holistic approach to sustainable construction, combining the benefits of timber as a structural material with the thermal, acoustic, and environmental advantages of wood fibre insulation. https://lnkd.in/ecm4VEcq #clt #modularconstruction #offsiteconstruction #microhomes #gardenrooms #architects #architecturaltechnologist #sustainableconstruction #construction
