Definitions

  • the present invention relates to systems for a building envelope, such as walls or roofs, and in particular to those which are constructed using cassettes, which are usually metal and most usually steel cassettes.
  • the cassettes are fixed onto a substructure and insulation material is positioned in the cassettes. Cladding is then fixed to the outside of the cassettes.
  • Such constructions are particularly common in industrial buildings.
  • the steel cassettes are formed of a major plate, which is typically vertical and horizontal plates extending in the same direction from the upper and lower ends of the major plate. These horizontal plates connect at their distal ends to downwardly directed flanges.
  • the wall may, therefore, be constructed using a number of these cassettes positioned one on top of the other such that the lower horizontal plate of an upper cassette faces the upper horizontal plate of a lower cassette.
  • the downwardly directed flanges of the cassettes overlap each other.
  • insulation material between the upper and lower horizontal plates of each cassette.
  • the insulation material can be held in place by the overlapping flanges and is usually in the form of a man-made vitreous fibre batt. This type of insulation material is particularly suitable for this application due to its good insulation properties, fire resistance and ease of installation.
  • the cladding is then fixed to the cassettes.
  • the cladding is typically metal cladding and is often fixed to the cassettes with screws that pass through the cladding and both overlapping flanges.
  • thermal bridges can also lead to condensation and damage to the inner surface of the building envelope.
  • EP0849420 describes a cassette wall, wherein, the insulation panels not only fill the space between upper and lower horizontal plates, but also cover the flanges thereby separating them from the cladding. In this way, the thermal bridge is substantially reduced.
  • This solution has a number of disadvantages. Problems arise when fixing the cladding to the cassette, because of the distance between these two elements and the compressibility of the mineral fibre panel. This distance results firstly in the screws bearing much of the weight of the cladding and being put under stress. Secondly, since the mineral fibre panel is compressible, there is a problem that it may be more compressed in the region of the screw. This might create an uneven outer surface and compromise the structural soundness of the cladding.
  • the solution of suggested in EP0849420 is to provide a firm outer layer in order to spread the pressure of the screw.
  • this firm outer layer further increases the distance that the screw must span between the cladding and the cassette. This may put more stress upon the screw itself, whilst also increasing the space that the building envelope occupies. Furthermore, the firm layer may further increase cost and might not contribute significantly to the insulation.
  • EP1179645 describes another attempt to diminish the thermal bridging in this type of wall.
  • insulation material is disposed between the cladding and the flanges of the cassettes.
  • spacer elements are provided to give a fixed space between cassette and cladding in which the insulation material can sit.
  • the spacer elements may be in the form of screws, having two separated threads with different diameters.
  • One disadvantage of this system is that here too the screws are subjected to bending stress under the weight of the cladding.
  • Another disadvantage is the need to use special spacer elements.
  • EP801190 describes an insulated metal wall construction.
  • the wall as a cassette wall and comprises a material strip manufactured from insulating material and dimensioned to absorb pressure forces. This document provides no information with regard to what material should be used for the material strip in order to provide the insulating and pressure absorbing properties.
  • WO2004/001154 describes a profiled element for a building wall, especially a cassette wall, with a heat or sound insulation member arranged in the profiled element.
  • the insulation member is preferably made from mineral fibres and consists of at least two interconnecting insulation elements, the first of which fills the profiled element and the second of which is located on a large surface of the first.
  • the insulation member can cover flanges of the profiled element, thereby reducing the number of cold bridges. Since the insulation covers the flanges and due to the nature of the insulation, it is necessary when using such a profiled element to somehow provide a fixed gap between the panel and the element.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a system for a building envelope, such as a wall or roof, comprising cassettes, which reduces the transmission of heat and/or sound through it and in particular through the cassettes.
  • a further object is to achieve such a reduction without the need for any special form of spacer to separate the cladding from the cassettes and to provide a system for a building envelope, such as a wall or roof, which has a good structural strength.
  • the building envelope as defined in claim 1 which comprises; a substructure generally arranged in the plane of the building envelope; at least a first cassette and a second cassette, each having a major plate extending in substantially the same general plane as each other and substantially parallel to and extending across the width of and attached to the substructure, top and bottom plates extending substantially perpendicularly from substantially the top and bottom respectively of the major plate away from the substructure, and downwardly directed flanges extending from substantially the distal ends of the top and bottom plates, the second cassette positioned adjacent to the first cassette such that the top plate of the first cassette faces the bottom plate of the second cassette and such that the flange of the bottom plate of the second cassette overlaps the flange of the top plate of the first cassette; man-made vitreous fibre batts positioned between the top and bottom plates of the first cassette and between the top and bottom plates of the second cassette; and outer cladding comprising sheeting elements, at least one sheeting element being fixed to the overlapping flanges of the first and second cassettes
  • the present invention also provides a method of making a system for a building envelope according to claim 10 comprising in any suitable order the steps of;
  • the present inventors have found that by providing, between the flange of the bottom plate of the second cassette and the sheeting elements that make up the outer cladding, a mat comprising at least 20 and up to 95 wt % aerogel and having a compressive stress at 10% compression of at least 20 kPa or, if 10% compression is not reached before the maximum compressive stress, having a compressive strength of at least 20 kPa, it is possible to provide improved insulation in a system for a building envelope, such as a wall or roof, with good structural strength and without the need to use special spacers to create a fixed space between the cassettes and the outer cladding.
  • the mat used in the present invention effectively provides its own fixed space between the first side surface and the first panel. Therefore, it is possible to use a regular screw, which passes through the sheeting element, the mat and the overlapping flanges of the mat because the mat retains its depth effectively.
  • the present inventors have found a solution to these problems using dried gel products, commonly known as aerogels. These products are known to have excellent insulation properties, owing to their very high surface areas, high porosity and relatively large pore volume. They also have good fire-resistant properties. They are manufactured by gelling a flowable sol-gel solution and then removing the liquid from the gel in a manner that does not destroy the pores of the gel.
  • gels are described as compositions, wherein a continuous liquid phase is enclosed by a continuous solid three-dimensional network of colloidal particles.
  • An aerogel can be formed by removing the liquid from the gel and replacing it with air as the dispersion medium.
  • Aerogel when used in the broader sense means a gel with air as the dispersion medium. Within that broad description, however, exist three types of aerogel, which are classified according to the conditions under which they have been dried.
  • aerogels also encompass dried gel products, which have been dried in a freeze-drying process. These products are generally called cryogels.
