It can further be used internally across walls or ceilings to take a plaster fi nish, while providing sound decoupling and acoustic absorption


properties, as well as thermal insulation. The 600 x 1200mm Fireboards are available in thicknesses from 20mm up to 200 mm and with the polymer modifi ed mortar honeycomb coating on one or both faces. With a nominal density of 150 kg/m3

New Mapei Polyglass roof for Enfield Council Civic Centre


A


Mapei Polyglass waterproofing roof system has been used to complete an extensive renovation at Enfield Council


Civic Centre. The project, completed by Alex Bennett Precision Roofing, spanned the link roof at the Centre and provided ungraded insulation, along with a host of high-performance features that were much-needed to improve the safety and efficiency of the building. Constructed in 1961, in postmodern style, Enfield Civic Centre has expanded over the


years and was refurbished in 2017 to provide an open plan working environment and incorporate new timber grill ceilings. During the recent roof refurbishment, limestone was carefully removed from the asphalt surface and the existing waterproofing system was cleaned and prepared. Mapei’s fast-drying Bituminous primer,


Polyprimer


HP45 Professional, was then applied to the surface to eliminate dusting and the roof was treated with germicidal foam.


The new roof system included three Mapei Polyglass membranes which provided strength, stability,


water resistance, and puncture resistance.


cold flexibility They included:


Polyvap SA P-AL prefabricated self-adhesive bitumen membrane, featuring ADESO® technology; Bitulight P – prefabricated elastomeric-plastomeric membrane featuring REOXTHENE® compound


and


Ultralight Technology Polyshield


prefabricated


waterproof plastomeric membrane. The system was installed with Adepur insulation adhesive.
