- the cover plates 1c and 2c have grooves 5 having a quadrangular cross section, said grooves penetrating to the foam layers 1a and 2a. Flat areas 46 are delimited between these grooves 5.
- Each of the insulating barriers, secondary 1 or primary 2 respectively, carries on its wall farthest from the supporting structure 3, a sheet of metal, for example stainless steel, which constitutes a secondary, respectively secondary, secondary barrier 6 7.
- Each of the secondary, and respectively primary, secondary sealing barriers 7 is in the form of an assembly of rectangular, secondary and primary metal plates 25a, which each comprise corrugations 8 having a V-shaped profile, the two branches of the V having an angular aperture of about 90 °. It is also possible to make an opening greater than 90 °, a lower opening being discouraged because of the welding difficulties that result.
- each secondary metal plate 25 and 25a respectively primary are made in two orthogonal directions, at equal distances, so that the network of corrugations defines planar interverteplane areas 40 of square shape (views perpendicular to the structure carrier 3), as is clearly visible in FIGS. 1 and 1A for the secondary barrier.

- the sealing between the edges of the adjacent metal plates is simpler when these edges are regular, which would not be the case if it were also necessary to arrange attachment points of the couplers at the edges of the metal plates.
- the areas between the adjacent insulating blocks, where the couplers are arranged are likely to have slight level offsets, due to the set of mounting of each insulating pad. These zones are thus likely to off ir a less uniform support surface for the metal waterproofing membrane than the central zones of the insulating pavers, hence a possible concentration of the stresses in these zones situated between the insulating pavers.
- the most fragile areas of the waterproofing membrane namely the edges of the metal plates, are disposed on the areas where the support surface is the most uniform, while the areas between the insulating pavers are covered by the central portion of the metal plates 25 or 25a, which is more resistant to stress, in particular because of the elasticity imparted by the corrugations 8.
