Fasteners Introduction Primary fasteners hold the insulated panels to the building frame, and secondary fasteners join panels to each other and to flashings etc. The fasteners are therefore an integral part of the building, their strength being weatherproofing, durability and appearance must be carefully considered as part of the overall design. The following general notes explain the various fasteners which are used with Kingspan Insulated Panels. Specific references from ITW Buildex fasteners are within this document. Primary fasteners Head Washer Support thread Thread to structure Drill point These fasteners are specially designed to drill through the panel, self tap into the framework and finally seal the outer sheet. This is achieved in one fast operation using a screwgun with a depth sensing nose piece. Various accessories for these tools are available from the fastener manufacturer. Fasteners are manufactured to suit the many materials and constructions in common use. The variations include: They may be made from high quality carbon steel or austenitic stainless steel. The drill point alters for drilling into different materials and thicknesses. The self tapping thread can vary with the type and thickness of material. The overall fastener length will vary depending on the thickness of the panel being fixed. For through fixed panels some fasteners have a secondary support thread directly under the head to withstand superimposed loads caused by foot traffic. This also draws the outer skin tightly up to the washer, thus ensuring a weatherproof seal. The fastener head may be coated to match the roof and wall panel colour (contact ITW Buildex for further information). Secondary fasteners These are the fasteners which join sheet to sheet, flashing to sheet, or flashing to flashing. The main types used are stitching screws or rivets. Stitching screws self drill and tap, draw the sheets together and seal in one operation, in the same way as the primary fasteners. They are available in high quality carbon steel and austenitic stainless steel and in several head forms to suit the various materials being fastened. Rivets are made from aluminium alloy and are installed in a two stage operation which involves drilling a hole through the two components, pushing the rivet into the hole and setting it with a rivetting tool. This tool draws the mandrel through the rivet body and deforms it so that it grips the materials together until it finally breaks. Other blind fasteners are used for special applications, such as the side laps of rooflights, where normal pop rivets and stitchers are unsuitable. These larger fasteners come in several forms, some require a rivetting tool and others use a bolt to pull an EPDM grommet up to the underside of the sheet. Installation and weathering Self drilling / tapping fasteners are supplied with a bonded washer which is designed to prevent water ingress into the building through the fixing point. To be sure of optimum performance it is important to install the fasteners correctly. The fasteners and washers are designed to be driven so that the washer is compressed evenly, giving the appearance shown. The screwgun is fitted with an adjustable, depth sensitive nosepiece which can be set to disengage the clutch when the fastener has been installed correctly. Stitching Screws Rivets Bulb-tite Rivet 100

Strength The primary fasteners hold the panels in place on the building and must be strong enough to resist the applied loads. In practice the most important load consideration for fasteners is often wind suction. In these circumstances ultimate failure of the fixing can happen in three possible ways: 1. Pull over The outer skin of the panel deforms around the head and washer of the fastener until the hole is large enough for the panel to pull over, leaving the entire fastener in place.

Fastener tensile failure The fastener breaks in tension, part way down its length, leaving part of the thread in the frame. Permissible tensile load on a 5.5mm diameter carbon or stainless steel fastener is 6.0kN. Durability and appearance The ultimate life expectancy of the fasteners depends on their corrosion rate which can be affected by their material specification, the internal and external environments and the construction of the building. However, there may be appearance or performance problems long before ultimate failure occurs. These may be due to leakage at washers, rust staining, or faded / missing colour caps. Material specifications fasteners Corrosion can occur if there is moisture on the fastener. The rate of corrosion will depend on the fastener material, its coating, the materials being fixed, how long the moisture is present, corrosive elements and the ambient temperature of the environment. Under these circumstances it is difficult to make general predictions about the life expectancy of fasteners, although a number of statements can be made: 1. Coated carbon steel fasteners have performed well in Australian and New Zealand conditions on roofs and walls of insulated buildings. For warranties contact ITW Buildex. 2. Separate snap-on plastic colour caps may come off over time, but integral colour heads will not. The fastener recommendations for ITW Buildex products have been tabulated on page 102. In situations where there is industrial or marine pollution, or internally there are chemical or wet processes (ie. swimming pools), the fastener manufacturer should be consulted.

Sitework tools and installation To be sure of optimum performance it is important that purpose designed tooling is used to install the fasteners correctly. The fasteners and washers are designed to be driven so that the washer is compressed evenly, thus ensuring a weather tight seal. The screwgun must be fitted with an adjustable, depth sensitive nose piece which can be set to disengage the clutch when the fastener has been installed correctly.

Sealants and fillers Introduction Sealants are a fundamental part of wall and roof cladding specification and installation. They make an important contribution to satisfactory weathering, building physics and durability performance of the cladding envelope. It is therefore vital to specify the correct external and internal sealants and fillers at the design stage. Sealants Sealants and fillers used with Kingspan Insulated Panels can be supplied by Kingspan Australia / New Zealand. Preformed mastic tape Bostik 5250 preformed mastic tapes are nonhardening, permanently flexible, synthetic butyl rubber sealants with adhesive properties. They can withstand extreme heat and cold conditions, still retaining their seal, adhesion and resilience. These tapes are supplied on rolls with a release paper. Preformed PVC foam tape Tesa 60105 is a closed cell PVC foam tape with a self adhesive to one side. It is fungi, oxidation, UV and ozone resistant and is used to seal the top hat to the panel. Tape thickness mm approximately roll length metres Tape thickness (mm) Approximate roll length (mm) 6 x 4 12 (AWP / LS and RW) 4 dia. 12 (AWP / LS and RW) 9 x 4.8 15 (AWP Top Hat only) Mastic sealants Silicone sealant is exclusively used with Kingspan Insulated Panels. Kingspan recommends the following grades: Neutral cure This low modulus silicone does not release any acid during cure, is softer than alternatives, and can accommodate + or -35% joint movement. Material Neutral cure Material Neutral cure Coated steel Lining enamel Permaguard GRP Glass Polycarbonate PVC Brick Concrete Non-settling Non-settling, non-skinning synthetic elastomers and plasticisers reinforced with inert pigments. The sealants have a life of more than 20 years in external applications and joints are normally designed to allow the seal to be removed and renewed, thus extending joint life almost indefinitely. Sealant applications The following table shows which materials to use in a variety of normal building applications for AWP / LS and RW wall.

Installation of sealants Tape sealants: 5250 On side and end laps the location of sealant tape is as indicated. On shallow roof pitches a double line of sealant should be used or alternatively a U section sealant can be supplied. All tapes are applied from the roll leaving the backing paper in place to avoid stretching the tape. The paper is removed after the tape is in position. It is important that the tape is fitted properly down the valley sides and across the troughs without stretching. If this procedure is not followed a good seal is unlikely to be made. TESA 97498, is 20mm thick and cut from closed cell polyethylene foam. This grade is available in black or white and is suitable for general use in non critical applications with a minimum life of 10 years. It should not be used in exposed applications near the coast as it may be subjected to damage by seabirds. When placing the panels care should be taken to avoid displacing the tape. When fixing the sheets, fasteners must not be over tightened as this could force the sealant out of the joint. In buildings where the internal air has a high humidity or low temperature, eg. swimming pools or chill stores, the liner side of the panel joint must also be sealed to form a vapour barrier. When it is not possible to make a butt joint, a backing tape or gap filling foam should first be inserted into the joint and the sealant is then applied so that it has an adequate bond area on both sides of the joint. Generally this should be at least 4mm, but in some instances it may have to be varied to accommodate surface profiles etc. All surfaces must be firm, clean, dry and free from dust, dirt, grease and water to enable the sealant to adhere to them. The surfaces should preferably be reasonably warm and never below 4 C. Profile fillers Where any flashings, such as at a ridge or hip are fixed to profiled roofing or cladding panels a series of gaps are created. To prevent wind, rain and wildlife entering the construction these gaps need to be closed with profile fillers. The following material specification of profile filler is available: Additional requirements 107

Site handling Packing, delivery, off-loading and site storage Packing The number of panels in each pack varies depending on panel thickness and customer requirements. Normally the maximum height of each pack is approximately 1200mm. Each pack is labelled with the customers name and contents. Delivery and off loading Using forklift with panels under 6 metres < Spreader bar with slings 2m Max 3m Max 3m Max 2m Max Panels are normally delivered to the site by road transport, the number of packs depending on panel and pack size. The packs are separated with bearers which create gaps between the packs to allow lifting straps or forklift tines to be inserted. It is the customer s responsibility to arrange lifting Using lifting beam with panels equipment and over 6 metres long labour to unload the packs. This usually requires using a crane, with or without a lifting beam, or a forklift, depending on panel length and weight. in prime condition until they are installed the following precautions should be taken: Store packs off the ground and on a slope, so that should rain water penetrate the wrapping, water will drain away. Support the packs evenly with bearers spaced at 1.2 metres. Bearers should always be placed one directly above another. Store packs in a secure area, where they will not be damaged or stolen. Inspect the storage site and the packs regularly to ensure the panels remain in good condition. Do not store packs where people will walk across them. Site handling Packs of panels up to 6 metres long can be lifted either with a forklift, or by crane with lifting straps, as illustrated on page 107. Care must be taken to ensure the forklift tines do not damage the bottom panel and When hoisting packs or panels into position protect the edges if necessary to avoid damage. Use flat slings and not chains for hoisting. Site storage It is often necessary to store packs of panels on site for a period before they are fixed. To ensure that panels remain

similarly using straps, protect the edge of the panels to prevent local damage. Packs longer than 6 metres should be lifted by cranes with a lifting beam with straps at a maximum of 3 metre centres. Individual panels should always be lifted from a pack and not dragged over others. The weight of individual panels for lifting can be determined from the information in the product data pages for the individual products. Generally panels can be placed into position manually, subject to OHS, weight and handling restrictions. For larger panels the contractor would normally arrange to use a crane, hoist, or other equipment to help lift the panels into position. Appropriate personel protective equipment should always be worn to avoid cuts and abrasions to operatives. Installers should always wear rubber soled footwear to avoid damage to the panel coating when installing panels. Protecting film When panels are supplied with a plastic protective film this should be removed immediately after site installation. 6m Max 1m Min Fork lift 2m Min Lifting straps 2m Max 3m Max 3m Max Lifting beam Additional requirements

BCA Part J compliancy Mandatory energy efficiency measures for non-residential construction The new BCA Part J, which came into force in 2006 will change the way we build. It sets new standards for long term insulation and environmental performance of components and construction methods. It is the responsibility of all involved in the construction industry to understand and comply with the new mandatory provisions of BCA Part J. This includes: designers specifiers engineers building contractors owners investors Part J covers all Class 2 to 9 buildings (residential and commercial buildings). It aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by increasing energy efficiency of structures. Affects all air conditioned and many non-air conditioned buildings. Specific areas of focus include: Loss of energy through heating / cooling leakage through building fabric roof, ceilings, walls and floors External glazing to reduce heat gain and place less pressure on air conditioning Sealing to reduce leakage around chimneys, flues, windows, doors and other projections Air movement and ventilation to reduce air conditioning needs Design of air conditioning systems to prevent excessive power consumption Part J regulations are different for each class of structure and climate zone in Australia. The Building Code of Australia Part J: Mandatory energy efficiency measures for non-residential construction The Building Code of Australia (BCA) Part J (mandatory energy efficiency measures for nonresidential construction) regulation aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from buildings.

Implementation dates Energy efficiency measures were initially introduced into the BCA housing provisions in 2003. In 2005, State Australian Capital Territory Adoption date 1 May 2006 New South Wales 1 November 2006 Northern Territory 1 May 2006 Queensland 1 May 2006 South Australia 1 August 2006 Tasmania 1 May 2006 Victoria 1 May 2006 Western Australia 1 May 2006 mandatory measures were introduced into the BCA for Class 2-4 buildings. This was followed up in 2006 with similar measures for Class 5-9 buildings. All of the BCA provisions are now mandatory for Class 2 to 9 buildings (refer to the appendix description for building classes). Buildings with HVAC are particularly affected by the new regulations. Greenhouse gas emissions The Australian government has committed to achieving specific greenhouse reductions as part of the Kyoto Protocol, which came into effect in 2005. Part J in building construction is a key project in the steps taken to achieve these emission targets. Compliance to Part J Automatic compliance to Part J mandatory regulations can be achieved by meeting the BCA prescribed building solutions, called Deemed to Satisfy provisions. There is provision for alternative engineered solutions, which will require documentary evidence, verification, comparative analysis or expert judgement. New energy efficiency measures The incorporation of energy efficiency measures in the BCA is targeted towards ongoing operational efficiencies over the life of buildings. The BCA sets standards for the performance of buildings, including services that aid the efficient use of energy. Part J incorporates the use of the building, the method of construction, its geographic location, the effects of nearby features such as landforms, structures and buildings and solar radiation considerations. The mandatory energy efficiency requirements vary according to the Class of building and are also based on the climate zone. Australia is divided into 108

geographical zones (see map, also available on the ABCB website). Different levels of energy efficiency are required, based on the climate severity for each building being designed. Specific areas targeted by the BCA for improvement are: of the building and glazing orientation are also factors that can affect heat loss or gain. 3. Building sealing Building sealing effectiveness can not only influence the size of air conditioning HVAC in building design, it can also influence longer term energy operating consumption. The BCA requires sealing around chimneys, flues, windows doors and other projections. The building fabric around roofs, walls and floors also needs to be constructed to minimise air leakage. 4. Air movement Air movement within a building offers a form of cooling, so that air conditioning requirements can be reduced. Ventilation requirements vary by building class and climate zone. There are also restrictions on the fixing method and size for ceiling fans or evaporative coolers. 1. Building fabric The building fabric the basic components of a building, including the roof, ceilings, walls and floors should have sufficient thermal resistance to ensure that energy is not lost by heat transmission. Roof, ceiling, walls and floors must achieve a specified total R value (which is the total sum of the insulating performance of all individual component layers, including any building material, insulating material, airspace and associated surface resistances). 2. External glazing There are regulations to ensure that the amount of heat gain through windows is not excessive and that air conditioning needed to counteract the heat losses through windows is not excessive. Shading 5. Air conditioning and ventilation systems Air conditioning must be able to operate at different temperatures and times to meet the intended use of the building. The design of the HVAC system in terms of motor power and ventilation / exhaust must prevent excessive energy consumption. 6. Artificial lighting and power The number of lights and power consumption are to be regulated to within acceptable maximum levels. 7. Hot water supply Hot water systems must be designed and installed in accordance with Section 8 of AS / ANZ 3500.4 plumbing and drainage heated water services. 8. Access for maintenance There are maintenance measures that must be provided to all plant, equipment and components that require maintenance, to ensure that they operate at efficient levels. Summary Part J energy efficiency measures are implemented through the local standard building approvals process, involving building inspectors and surveyors, and often independent building certifiers and assessors. Building designers and builders themselves need to be aware of these new requirements. The Part J implications for building construction are complex, and vary according to the class of building and also with the climate zone. From Kingspan s experience worldwide where similar regulations have been introduced, it has been the signal / catalyst for further regulations to be developed. Likely further developments include mandatory air leakage testing, regulations being extended across all classes of buildings, the requirement for thicker insulation, the implementation of elemental calculations and the anticipation of change of tenancy.

New concept insulated panels a compliance solution Kingspan insulated panels were developed for construction efficiency. They provide energy efficient solutions that are already compliant with BCA Part J and are widely used in markets where such regulations have long been in force. The external envelope must be procured under one package with a single point of responsibility for design detailing, supervision and installation, rather than as individual building elements. This is at the heart of the Kingspan concept. Thermal insulation thickness Minimum compliance requirements from May 2006 (November 2006 for NSW). Please note where light colours with high reflective values are used in certain climate zones there is a provision under Part J where the minimum thickness can be reduced from Kingspan 60mm to 40mm.

Sustainable insulation achieves energy savings and climate protection In use energy savings are the most important issue because fossil fuel energy usage is leading to global warming and rising sea levels, raising the very real possibility of catastrophic climate change which may destroy life as we know it. Kingspan s insulated roof and wall systems can reduce energy use by up to 60%. This enables the design of HVAC systems to optimise energy efficiency and reduce CO 2 emissions. Sustainable manufacture and site installation Off-site pre-fabrication provides factory quality systems achieving higher quality, faster and safer site installation. The Australian Building Codes board has identified increased insulation and higher air tightness as keys to reducing energy use in buildings. This is consistent with their policy to promote sustainable construction principles. Kingspan Insulated Panels are CFC and HCFC free. That is they have a zero ozone depleting potential. Polyisocyanurate (PIR) is twice as thermally efficient as polystyrene (EPS), mineral fibre and rock fibre insulation. High thermal performance PIR insulated roof and wall systems optimise thermal efficiency and contribute to air-tightness criteria, thereby preventing unnecessary heat transfer. This provides substantial CO 2 emission savings and contributes to the Federal Government s goals of minimising global warming and consequential climate change. An additional value of insulated roof and wall systems is that they maintain their exceptional thermal performance throughout their lifetime, which is a key requirement for any sustainable solution. Additionally these solutions provide lower site costs, reduced construction programme times and greater certainty in project delivery. Pre-engineered solutions are delivered to the construction site with the correct dimensions therefore reducing site wastage. In use sustainability Embodied energy An important factor in a material specification is the embodied energy of the material. For base construction materials, the replacement of one material with an equivalent with lower embodied energy will reduce the overall energy impact. However, achieving low energy demand in-use is the most important factor in the selection of insulation materials. The significance of embodied energy can be particularly misleading for energy efficiency materials and systems where the embodied energy will typically only be in the order of 1%-3% of the energy saved over the building s lifetime. The chart clearly indicates that thermal efficiency, low air leakages and longevity of performance over the lifespan of the product are the key environmental issues for choosing insulation materials.

Fire performance 114

Insurers are demanding the use of insurer approved products in building construction. External cladding and internal panel systems should be compliant with Factory Mutual (FM) approval requirements in most projects. Certification for building, cladding and fire protection systems is necessary to facilitate efficient letting, re-letting and sale of the building. There are key differences between panel core types. Typical types of core include polystyrene (EPS), mineral fibre, polyurethane (PUR) and more recently, non-approved polyisocyanurate (PIR) and FM approved polyisocyanurate. Each core performs differently in fire. In recent years insurance companies have encountered considerable loss as a result of large fires particularly in the food and drinks industry. The vast majority involved EPS cored panel systems used as internal structures. Recent research confirms that the real insurance fire losses are associated with the use of unsuitable insulated internal panel systems. The construction market has been generally confused about the suitability of EPS cores in particular resulting from conflicting information, misinformation and misreporting. An important legal precedent was set in an important High Court Judgement in London where an architect was held liable for a fire loss resulting from the specification of polystyrene (EPS) panels. Kingspan has been working closely with brokers, insurers and re-insurers to assess the performance of polyisocyanurate (PIR) panels. The real life fire performance record of external envelope and internal insulated panels with FM-approved PIR cores is exemplary. Additional requirements 115

Fire performance Incident: Tip Top Bakery fire, 02.06.2002 Location: Fairfield, New South Wales Australia Insulation type: Polystyrene (EPS) core panels Total losses: $150 million Major fire in Australian food production facility The following extract from a NSW Fire Brigade report on the Tip Top Bakery Fire in Fairfield, NSW on 2nd June, 2002 acknowledges the fire susceptibility of polystyrene (EPS) foam insulation panels: Polystyrene foam is thermoplastic, that is, it softens when heated. Thermoplastic materials tend to melt and shrink away from heat long before ignition. This melting causes voids that reduce the structural strength of the panels. As the panels buckle, the joints tend to open introducing flame and air into the core. This results in internal flame spread between the panels and throughout the structure and there is likely to be a rapid loss of structural strength and subsequent collapse of walls and ceilings. Polyurethane (PUR) and polyisocyanurate (PIR) foams are both thermosetting materials, which means that they do not melt, flow or drip when exposed to fire. Rather, they form a strong carbonaceous char that helps to protect the foam core and prevent flame spread within the panels themselves. It would appear that the sandwich panels utilised in the construction of the Tip Top factory were constructed with EPS insulation. Construction using EPS sandwich panels presents several major difficulties for fire fighting: The loss of adequate structural integrity and subsequent likelihood of significant building collapse; The combustibility of the insulation material adds substantially to the fire load and results in the production of large amounts of heat, smoke and toxic products; Fire spread can be hidden within the panels, and This fire spread can be rapid, leading to conditions that favour flashover. There have been incidents in other countries where firefighters have lost their lives whilst engaged in offensive firefighting tactics in structures constructed with EPS sandwich panels. Firefighters need to be aware of the inherent dangers of this type of lightweight construction. Incident commanders must be aware that firefighting in these conditions can be extremely hazardous with early collapse, high fire load and massive smoke production being major factors affecting firefighter safety.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ s) Q. What is the difference between non-certified and certified polyisocyanurate (PIR)? A. Non certified PIR has not been through the rigorous test programme demanded by FM. Certified PIR uses a unique formulation that gives a highly fire resistant product which is capable of passing insurance industry tests. Companies such as FM Global have precise details of approved formulations and regularly audit manufacturers facilities to confirm compliance. Non certified PIR s or PUR s will not give the same fire performance as certified PIR s. Q. In real buildings the panel core is always exposed due to poor maintenance etc. Is this a fire risk? A. It is always good practice to inspect and repair damaged panel systems. Having said that, the reality is that a certified PIR core, even when exposed to a high intensity propane torch, cannot ignite the unprotected insulation core. This is in stark contrast to EPS where a very small fire source can ignite the material. This is then compounded by the tendency of EPS to shrink and melt leading to the formation of a cavity between the metal skins that can allow hidden fire spread. This phenomenon does not occur with certified PIR. impingement, radiant heat or high temperatures. Typical parameters normally measured include ignitability, flame spread and rate of heat release. The Kingspan range of insurer approved panels includes systems that have excellent performance in reaction to fire. Systems are also available that demonstrate high levels of fire resistance up to 1 hour insulation / integration. Q. My insurer / insurance premium is telling me it is OK to construct building using polystyrene (EPS) panels. Is this true? A. Over the past decade there have been numerous fires where EPS insulation cores have been used in a building s construction and the EPS has proven to contribute to the ferocity of the fires and subsequent damage. By selecting certified PIR cores you are safeguarding your business against consequential losses and against future, harder attitudes to EPS resulting in higher premiums. By outlining these characteristics to your broker you should benefit from lower premiums. Q. As an architect, how can I ensure that FM approved systems are installed correctly? A. Contractual documents must make reference to compliance with the appropriate specification model specifications and help in specification development are available from Kingspan Technical Services. Q. What is the difference between reaction to fire and fire resistance? A. Reaction to fire assesses how a specific material or composite product reacts when exposed to heat which can be in the form of direct flame Polystyrene (EPS) melting under the effects of fire Polyisocyanurate (PIR) after 30 minutes at over 1000 C Additional requirements 117
