For additional parking and driveways – a truly well-utilized space.
Contemporary design has accepted rooftop parking lots and otherwise utilized flat roof surfaces as a normal state of affairs. At first glance, conventionally looking parking lots may not even look as utilized flat roofs. Such is the power of good architecture and proper integration of construction into the existing space.
In driveable roofs, thermal insulation not only reduces thermal losses of conditioned spaces below but protects the underlying waterproofing from mechanical damage. In thin layers, even minimal thermal insulation will prevent the buildup of condensate at the roof in unheated spaces while still protecting the waterproofing.
Expected loads must be reflected in the choice of thermal insulation. Depending on the load dimension and type of final layer, which greatly affects load distribution, thermal insulation with very high (500kPa) or extremely high (700 kPa) compressive strength characteristics should be installed.
Parking Deck with OPTIMO system
OPTIMO roofs are optimally layered flat roofs where the desired slope is achieved with FIBRANxps inclination thermal insulation boards instead of the heavy inclination concrete.
In designing flat roofs – mostly in roofs, terraces and balconies renovation – we are often faced with two key challenges: with the structure’s excessive load and the insufficient height which limits our choice of energy efficiency measures. Both challenges are usually connected with the inclination layer, as traditionally, the desired slopes were executed with the heavy inclination concrete.
To reduce the flat roof’s load, the OPTIMO flat roof system substitutes the heavy and thick inclination concrete with FIBRANxps INCLINE – lighter and leaner inclination thermal insulation boards which, additionally, improve the assembly’s thermal resistance.
The OPTIMO system:
