Roadstone Thermal Liteblock- Building Energy Efficiency

Roadstone has launched a new Thermal Liteblock system. The Roadstone Thermal Liteblock is a lightweight, durable and thermally efficient concrete block that provides improved energy efficiency in the design and construction of new buildings, and combined with a program of thermal modelling provides customers with solutions for compliance with the recently revised building regulations. There is now a greatly increased emphasis on minimising heat loss in the fabric of new buildings and particularly thermal bridging that can occur at building junctions. Roadstone’s product development included thermal modelling of a wide range of these building junctions which means that we can provide customers with design solutions and validated thermal performance calculations, through our technical support team. Roadstone’s product launch program included a number of regional seminars throughout Ireland that were well attended by architects, BER assessors, engineers and building contractors.

Roadstone has thermally modelled each critical junction detail, ACD’s as listed in TGD L 2011 appendix D1, D2, D4 and D6 and has calculated the psi value for each junction. This means we can provide a certified (y) factor calculation to our customers when using the Roadstone Thermal Liteblock system and the improved benefits of this will be evident in the improved BER results for your building. By using the Roadstone Thermal Liteblock System you can comfortably comply with TGD Part L 2011 thermal bridging requirements.

Roadstone has now developed a designated web page for Thermal Liteblock that includes the product brochure, contact details for our technical support team and a wide range of details that are now available for download. These details are fully certified and have been thermally modelled by our NSAI certified energy consultants Evolusion Innovation, to demonstrate compliance with TGD Part L.

Please contact one of our technical support team to discuss CPD accredited Liteblock seminars that can be provided in your practice or to discuss design solutions for your project.
