roof insulation
Many people care about their homes so that they look the best and most beautiful, including the interest in isolating roofs or ceilings, as many people resort to insulating the roofs of buildings and homes to keep homes and buildings intact and to ensure that they are not exposed to any problems, and roof insulation can be defined as the process of protecting homes Or buildings and roofs by using special materials in order to mitigate the effects of external factors that can affect the building, as the roof is considered one of the most places that can be damaged due to its permanent exposure to external factors such as rain water, dust and high sunlight heat
Roof insulation methods
thermal insulation
It is to protect the ceilings from high temperatures so that they are not affected by high temperatures; This is to prevent damage or erosion as a result of the high heat to which the ceilings are exposed, and this is through the use of a lot of materials, and one of the most important and best of these materials is rock wool, as it is used by panels attached to the surface or through special ceiling tiles, and it is called Al-Mazaiko , where a percentage of rock wool is placed in it, and another material used for thermal insulation of roofs is the use of perlite, with the aim of reflecting heat away from the roofs of houses, in addition to using foam or fiberglass.
waterproofing
The accumulation of water on the ceilings leads to the appearance of cracks, which cause water leakage and the appearance of moisture on the ceiling, and thus mold is formed. There is water glass that is used by spraying it directly on the surfaces, then mixing concrete or cement with silica, which strengthens the bonds of the cement mixture and prevents water leakage well. In addition, rock wool is also used in waterproofing, as it is placed on the roof structure and then work A cement surface on it again, and cement chips are used that are attached to the ceiling to prevent water and moisture, and there are other materials used for waterproofing, which are polystyrene, cork, and paraffin, which is a liquid substance that is sprayed on the ceilings using a spray or brush to prevent water leakage.
After completing the waterproofing process, the work of the other layers must be continued for a period not exceeding one week so that the waterproofing is not exposed to damage.
