Abstract
Relates to Thermaclass Cavity Wall 21 for Full Fill Cavity Walls, comprising rigid polyisocyanurate (PIR) foam boards with a composite foil-facing on both sides, for use as full fill thermal insulation (with a residual cavity of up to 10 mm) in new external masonry cavity walls up to 25 m in height, in domestic and non-domestic buildings. Additional requirements apply for buildings above 12 m in height and further restrictions may apply based on the reaction to fire performance. The key factors assessed include mechanical resistance and stability, safety in case of fire, hygiene, health and the environment, safety and accessibility in use, protection against noise, energy economy and heat retention, sustainable use of natural resources, and durability.
