Moisture in buildings

Fixed underroof

A fixed underroof is characterized by the fact that it has a surface that is so strong that it can withstand being walked on. It is usually made with a substrate of boards, plywood or OSB boards lined with roofing felt or other strong track products of the roofing type, cf. WOOD 54, Suspended ceilings: Wood fiber and fixed suspended ceilings (Brandt, 2007). In addition to acting as a sub-roof, fixed sub-roofs of sheet materials can help to absorb wind effects on the building, as they can act as a bracing element when using a slab. Track goods Undercarriage of track goods are usually thin, free-hanging membranes that are mounted along or across the barrier direction. They have no stiffening effect. Some track products can be laid on a solid surface of boards, plywood or OSB boards without, however, being of the roofing type. The use of railway products in this way should only take place under the following conditions: It must be ensured that the wood-based substrate is not moistened due to the tent effect. The execution must be done according to instructions from the supplier, who must accept use on solid ground.

Sheet materialsSuspended sheets of flexible sheets mainly comprise fibreboard and gypsum-based boards. These are usually relatively thin plates that cannot be stepped on.

Roofs with ventilated roof spaceBy ventilated roof spaces is meant unused roof spaces located between the ceiling and the roof surface. This is a traditional, well-functioning roof structure, which is known, for example, from lattice rafting subjects. This type of roof can be used in moisture load classes 1-3. The roof space must be ventilated in accordance with the general ventilation rules. For roofs with sub-roofs, eg roof tiles or slate, the instructions for the current sub-roofs must be followed. When using unventilated underroofs of diffusion-open materials, ventilation / pressure equalization is established in the roof space, eg in pitches or at the top of gables. This also applies to pointed ceilings for cockpit roofs.

Renovation and re-insulation of roofsIn duo roofs and inverted roofs, the drop can be reduced to 1: 100. If the ratio of insulation above and below the roof membrane in duo roofs is less than 1: 1, a vapor barrier must normally be installed on the upper side of the roof deck. the insulation in inverted roofs and the upper insulation layer in duo-roofs lie over the membrane and must therefore be a material with closed cells that absorb only small amounts of water and which are therefore not damaged by frost effects, eg XPS insulation (extruded polystyrene). In duo roofs, other insulation materials can be used under the membrane where they are not exposed to water, such as EPS insulation (expanded polystyrene) or cellular glass. The compressive strength of the insulation must be dimensioned based on the load on the coating. Materials with (short-term) compressive strengths below 150 kN / m2 cannot normally be used. the insulation has - in addition to the heating and moisture technical function - the purpose of protecting the roof membrane against mechanical influences. Roof terraces can also be designed as ordinary, upright, warm roofs, provided that the covering is placed on blocks so that the water can run freely under the covering. The roof membrane must, if necessary, have a slope of at least 1:40. The coating can consist of concrete tiles on tile feet or wooden decks on joists.
