Great way to convert a loft, it would be useful to show a thermal imaging survey when finished to see if the beams are insulated into the envelope to prevent thermal bridging.

I was using the scotsdale machines and shocked it never took off more to be honest .Looks exact same profile of their 90 machines. We used to use the 140 profile for the joists for extra strength.

@@builditwithrob hi rob, in the end, we went down the traditional route. Ecotruss stitched us right up with design phase. They clearly ignored the agreed and approved plans and just used someone else's loft and tweaked it. Then when challenged about it they claimed the £2k design fee. I had to threaten litigation to get it back. Nightmare.

Hi mate, how would you insulate this system? You couldn't use PIR as fitting correctly between the studs and rafters would be impossible. If you used a "mineral wool" type insulation the thickness required to meet building regs would be much greater than the depth of the studs/rafters. The best and most efficient way would be to fit PIR boards to the external side of walls and roof. This would dramatically improve heat loss and limit thermal bridging through the metal frame structure. Cheers mate 👍
@murphyslaw20202 ай бұрын
I was thinking the same. a warm roof would be best but hard to finish maybe. Or Spray Foam the inside but I wouldn't use it myself not a fan

Looks like a really good method and probably lighter than timber. I wonder if the steel is protected, zinc coated, even a little rust would weaken it.
