Vulcan Thermal Break R0.2
Thermal Break that reduces the impact of thermal bridging by reducing the flow of heat through the conductive pathway from the steel framing to the external cladding.
Application
Suitable for use in framed wall that have a higher thermal conductivity that cause heat leakage through the wall frame and into the building.
Description
The National Construction Code (BCA Vol 1 & 2) introduced a requirement in 2006 which states that all metal framed buildings of certain construction and building classification, require a Thermal Break with an R 0.2m2 K/W to be installed between the metal frame and external cladding.
Where a Thermal Break is used to meet the compliance provisions of the BCA (NCC) for Metal Framed External Walls of All Type A and Type B Construction it must meet all of the following criteria:
- Be a Non-combustible product.
- Be installed between the Metal Frame and the External Cladding.
- Be a material with an R-Value of not less than R 0.2.
The TBA Firefly Vulcan R0.2 Thermal Break is 100% Non-combustible in accordance with AS1530.1
