TH45408A - Building components that transmit light. - Google Patents

Abstract

DC60 (24/03/42) Light-transmitting building components (10) for use as roofs, walls, or ceiling components, etc., are constructed with a technical thin membrane (12) in the form of textile tissue on the outward-facing side, and in addition a sound-insulating layer (21) arranged at a certain distance from the outer layer (11) of the technical thin membrane (12), and an infrared-resistant light-transmitting layer (36) on the inward-facing side. In this way, the building components are constructed with a low surface weight while still meeting the strict requirements not only in terms of resistance to weather influences, but also in terms of thermal and sound insulation. Light-transmitting building components (10) for use as roofs, walls, or ceiling components, etc., are constructed with a technical thin membrane (12) in the form of textile tissue on the outward-facing side. In addition, there is a sound-insulating layer (21) arranged at a certain distance from the outer layer (11) of the technical membrane (12), and there is also a light-transmitting layer that resists infrared radiation (36) on the inward-facing side. In this way, the building components are constructed with a low surface weight while still meeting the stringent requirements not only in terms of resistance to weathering but also in terms of thermal and sound insulation.
