Description
(54) SELF-SUPPORTING COMPOSITE ROOFING SLAB
(71) We AKTIESELSKABET JENS
VILLADSENS FABRIKER, of Milepar
ken 38, DK-2730 Herlev, Denmark, a Com
pany organised under the rules of Denmark
do hereby declare the invention, for which
we pray that a patent may be granted to us.
and the method by which it is to be
performed, to be particularly described in
and by the following statement: The invention relates to a self-supporting
composite roofing slab and concerns such a
slab having an upper layer provided with a
waterproof top lining and a lower layer. said
layers being united by a layer of an organic
binder.
A proposed slab for use in the building
industry consists of a layer of inorganic
fibres and a waterproof lining. Such a slab
has excellent insulation and fire resistance
properties but presents the drawback that it
Is not self-supporting. Consequently. when
using slabs of the above mentioned type as
roofing elements, it is necessary to provide
independent supporting elements for said
slabs.
Wood wool slabs, i.e. slabs made from
long wood fibres which are coated with
cement and bound together under pressure,
have been used as self-supporting roofing
elements. However, due to the relatively
low bending strength of such wood wool
slabs, relatively thick slabs. i.e. having a
thickness of above 10 cm. should be used to
make them self-supporting. Such thick slabs
are very heavy and difficult to handle.
The specification of British patent specifi
cation No. 1 445 787 discloses a composite
slab comprising a pair of wood wool slabs
between which is sandwiched a slab formed
of a rigid foam of a synthetic plastics
material.
Although the strength to thickness ratio is increased as compared with a single wood wool slab by providing a laminate as dis
closed in the above mentioned British patent specification, relatively thick and consequently heavy wood wool slabs have to be utilised in order to make such slabs selfsupporting.
It is among the objects of the invention to provide a relatively light self-supporting composite roofing slab.
According to the invention there is provided a self-supporting composite roofing slab, comprising an upper layer of inorganic fibres and provided with a waterproof toplining, and a lower wood wool slab layer, said layers being bonded together by an intermediate layer of an organic binder.
Thus. it has been found that by laminating a layer of inorganic fibres with a relatively thin wool wool slab layer. i.e. a layer having a thickness of about 3.5 cm. by means of an intermediate layer of an organic binder, a roofing slab is obtained having a surprisingly high bending strength.
As an example it has been found that a mineral fibre layer of a thickness of 8 cm laminated with a wood wool slab of a thickness of 3.5 cm produces a roofing slab having a bending strength sufficiently high to make it self-supporting over a span of 1.8 m. When using a mineral fibre layer of a thickness of 18 cm, the roofing slab is self-supporting over a span of 2.4 m.
As a result of the use of a relatively thin wood wool slab the weight of a composite roofing slab embodying the invention is significantly lower than that of the proposed wood wool slabs.
The layer of organic binder is preferably thin in order to obtain a high fibre resistance of the composite slab, the remaining components of which, viz. the layer of inorganic fibres and the wood wool slab, are resistant to fire. By using such thin layers of organic binder. composite slabs have been produced for which the burning through time is above 60 minutes.
The layer of inorganic fibres is preferably made from mineral wood and in particular rockwool. However, other types of inorganic fibres, such as glass wool fibres, may also be utilised.
The top lining provided on the layer of inorganic fibres is preferably made from a roofing felt, which may be composed of one or more layers.
As indicated above, the wood wool slab preferably has a thickness of about 3.5 cm.
The layer of organic binder is preferably made from foamed resin so as to further improve the acoustic and thermal insulation properties of the composite slab. The thickness of such a foamed resin layer is preferably between 5 and 20 mm.
A particularly preferred embodiment of composite roofing slab embodying the invention comprises a moisture barrier, e.g. a metal foil, located within the layer of organic binder. Such a metal foil prevents moisture vapour from penetrating into the layer of mineral fibres from the underside of the composite slab and thus reducing the insulation properties of said layer.
An aluminium foil incorporated into a layer of polyurethane foam has been found to be particularly suitable because of the good adherence of the polyurethane foam to the aluminium foil. However, it should be mentioned that also other metal foils are suitable.
Examples of other binders suitable for use in the production of composite roofing slabs embodying the invention are phenolic resins and polyesters.
The upper layer of the composite roofing slab embodying the invention is preferably displaced relative to the wood wool slab so as to allow the edge portion of the fibre layer of one slab to overlap the edge portion of the wood wool slab of an adjacent composite slab. Such a construction has an improved fire resistance and a reduced moisture migration in the spaces between adjacent slabs.
A further advantage of the composite slabs embodying the invention is that they can be manufactured on a travelling conveyor belt.
Thus, the composite slab may be manufactured by successively introducing wood wool slabs located on a travelling belt and a metal foil into a spray station in which a foaming plastics material is sprayed onto the top surface of the wood wool slabs and the metal foil. The wood wool slabs, the metal foil and a layer of inorganic fibres are subsequently laminated by means of the foaming material. During the foaming process the plastics material penetrates into the surface of the wood wool slabs and the fibre layers and strong bonds are formed.
A self-supporting composite roofing slab embodying the invention is hereinafter described. by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawing, which shows a cross sectional view of one edge portion of the composite slab.
Referring to the drawing the slab shown has a mineral fibre layer 1 having a waterproof top (as viewed) lining 2 consisting of two layers of roofing felt. A layer 3 of polyurethane foam incorporating an aluminium foil 4 having a thickness of e.g. 40 llm is located between said mineral fibre layer 1 and a wood wool slab 5 having a thickness of e.g. 3.5 cm so as to form the composite roofing slab.
The polyurethane layer 3 not only serves as a binder but also imparts to the composite slab an increased thermal and acoustic insulation.
As will appear from the drawing, the mineral fibre layer 1 is displaced slightly with respect to the wood wool slab 5. Thus, at one end of the roofing slab the slab 5 overlaps the layer 1, as shown, and at the opposite end of the roofing slab the layer 1 overlaps the slab 5. This overlap, which may be about 35 mm, allows the edge portion of a mineral fibre layer 1 of a composite slab to overlap the edge portion of the wood wool slab 5 of an adjacent composite slab.
A wood fibre strip 6 is located between the wood wool slab 5 and the mineral fibre layer 1 along the edges of the composite slab so as to confine the foaming material of the layer 3 and so as to form a support for fixing means, if any. located in the spaces between the mineral fibre layer 1 of adjacent composite slabs.
The slab described above with reference to the drawings is a self-supporting roofing slab having improved acoustic and thermal insulation properties. which is fire resistant, an insulating layer of which is protected against the ingress of moisture from the underside of the slab.
