Definitions

• the present invention relates to loadbearing heat insulation modules placed between the main structure floor and the balcony/cantilever, and thus allows separation of these components from each other without contacting each other during rough construction in the construction sector.
• the invention particularly relates to a heat insulation module, which is placed between the main structures and balconies of buildings so as to ensure independent operation of the balcony due to its static loadbearing characteristic, and thus allow continuous and intact heat insulation to be applied on the building, formed of blocks that can be extended as much as desired in the form of consecutively arranged blocks or by being combined with heat insulation blocks, allows designing all floor and balcony types without thermal bridges, by means of a single model, and provides much more economical and energy-saving solutions for buildings by means of mass production possibility.
• thermal bridge is a situation that occurs when heat transfer is more in one part of a structure compared to other parts due to the materials used in buildings and/or the construction technique.
• Thermal bridges are commonly formed due to deficient or faulty insulation applications and as a result of using materials that have different thermal conductivities and geometries compared to each other.
• thermal bridges are mostly formed in parts such as cantilevers, parapets, and balconies. Thermal bridges cause loss of heat in living spaces and significant damages in buildings, especially due to moisture, and also are harmful for health.
