Concrete roofs fall into 3 main categories icf wood or metal deck and precast.
Icf roof deck.
One advantage of an icf roof is that the insulation for the roof is already in place and protected on the inside of the roof.
Icf roof system applications for icf floor forming panels.
Icf roof panels are typically 6 inches or thicker and can span up to 40 feet with thickness increasing as span increases.
Examples of this are.
By using the highly insulated eps deck floor system construction professionals can easily and cost effectively build a solid load bearing flat or low slope reinforced concrete roof structure with inherently high insulation values ideal for finishing with a green roof system.
Buildblock s builddeck and lite deck.
A 2005 study by brad bass of the university of toronto demonstrated that green roofs can also reduce heat loss and energy consumption under extreme canadian winter conditions.
The builddeck floor roofing decking system is a lightweight stay in place insulating concrete form icf made of expanded polystyrene eps and used to construct a solid monolithic insulating concrete floor and or roof decking system.
