    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_insulated_panel

    A structural insulated panel, or structural insulating panel, (SIP), is a form of sandwich panel used in the construction industry. SIP is a sandwich structured composite, consisting of an insulating layer of rigid core sandwiched between two layers of structural board, used as a building material. The board can be sheet metal, plywood, cement ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

    Building insulation material. A building site for a row of riverside apartment blocks in Cambridge. The buildings are being constructed using a systems build with a steel frame and various prefabricated components. The blue plastic on the central building is the vapour barrier for the thermal wall insulation before the exterior cladding has ...

  4. Superinsulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superinsulation

    The passivhaus standard combines superinsulation with other techniques and technologies to achieve ultra-low energy use.. Superinsulation is an approach to building design, construction, and retrofitting that dramatically reduces heat loss (and gain) by using much higher insulation levels and airtightness than average.

  5. ThermaSAVE - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThermaSAVE

    ThermaSAVE is a panel building system which uses a 4 to 12-inch-thick core of expanded polystyrene (similar to Styrofoam) sandwiched between two sheets of cellulose fiber-reinforced cement board varying in thickness from 3/8 to 7/16 inch, depending on structural requirements. This creates a "stress skinned" panel, also known as structural ...

  8. Polystyrene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polystyrene

    Common thicknesses are from 10 mm to 500 mm. Many customizations, additives, and thin additional external layers on one or both sides are often added to help with various properties. An example of this is lamination with cement board to form a structural insulated panel. Thermal conductivity is measured according to EN 12667. Typical values ...
