Settlement of Cellulose Insulation

Abstract

Construction has recently become greener and returns to the materials that used by our ancestors. Recycled paper is considered as ecological material. Cellulose insulation is made from it has been used for several years. People do not believe in this blown insulation mainly due to the settlement and the creation of thermal bridges in the least desirable areas of the structure. This paper presents a description of a new test filling insulators which should clearly define the issues settlement.

Airtightness and Acoustic Properties of Family House from Straw

“…The aim was determine the intensity of air exchange n 50 and evaluate quality of building envelope in terms of leaks in the building envelope [8]. As expected, the leakages were occurred in places of penetration wooden elements of roof by peripheral construction, in places where windows are connected to wall and in places with another penetration by peripheral cladding.…”

“…Results of research involve measuring of mechanical and physical parameters of strawbales [4], acoustic and thermal properties. There were several airtightness measurements of straw houses [8].…”

Effect of an additional accumulation wall on course of interior temperatures in a light modular construction

“…The thickness of one paving stone was 100mm. While considering the accumulation properties of the accumulation wall the maximum width of would be 150mm; thicker wall will not show significantly better results [6]. …”

Comparison Thermal Conductivity and Cost of Materials Specified for Thermal Insulation of the Building's Facade

“…Comparison of thermal insulation was done according to the materials available from [2,3] in the first quarter of 2014. The comparison is made in terms of thermal conductivity (Graph 2), since this parameter represents as a parameter representing the thermal insulation property.…”
