![]() ![]() ![]() The usual symbol for this is the small Greek letter λ (lambda) with the unit J/(m It specifies the heat flow in joules that passes through a 1-m² large and 1-m-thick layer of a certain material. Thermal conductivity is a temperature-dependent, material-specific value of a pure solid body, a pure liquid or a pure gas. This article addresses the construction-related physical property of thermal conductivity as well as the numerical and measurement-based possibilities for its determination.ġ Basic principles concerning thermal conductivity from the Brick and Tile Research Institute Essen was published on “Application of numerical simulations for investigation and improvement of the acoustic behaviour of vertically perforated bricks”. For more information on the complete range of masonry look fencing and wall solutions at Modular Wall Systems™ call on 1300 556 957 or visit issue 1-2021 of ZI Brick and Tile Industry International, an article by Darya Ivanova M.Sc. With a reputation for quality and innovation, Modular Wall Systems™ has changed the way residential walls are built. Modular Wall Systems™ is a new generation solution for walls and fences that is 100 per cent Australian made and manufactured. Homes today have become a reflection of our lifestyle and modern-day living demands alternatives to traditional building materials. This eliminates the need to build an expensive retaining wall, which can look out of place when a fence is mounted on top of it. Retaining walls for sloping or stepped sites, planter boxes or for unusual situations where the fence needs to retain its base panel can also be addressed using the Modular Wall Systems™ integrated and reinforced retaining panel, TerraFirm™ 75, which will maintain the look of the fence on both sides whilst retaining up to 750mm of soil. The brick masonry look is created by using textured paint for a fraction of the cost of traditional cement render. Various finishing treatments or paint is then applied. Each will integrate perfectly with the architectural integrity of any home and additional designer touches such as slats, infills, gates and letterboxes or wiring for lighting, sound and security systems can be easily incorporated. The grand visual appeal associated with brick rendered walls can be recreated with Modular Wall Systems™ using a range of stylish designs including grand EstateWall™, the most cost effective TrendWall™ or the popular VogueWall™. The rock solid panel structure will not rot, dent, warp or corrode and is so deceptively strong that no one would ever guess the fence was engineered from lightweight composite fibre cement panels. The modern modular post and panel system can be installed in a matter of days and requires no strip footings, specialised skills or heavy machinery. Furthermore it also comes with the added acoustic benefit of a 20+dB reduction in audible noise. Modular Wall Systems™ is not only faster, easier and less expensive to install, but visually provides the same high-end appearance when compared to a traditional masonry wall. This saves renovators from dealing with the high costs and hassles associated with brick construction, and can eliminate the need to apply for council approval. Recently, with the surge in demand for bricks and the increasing cost of bricklayers, many homeowners are looking to alternative fencing solutions, like Modular Wall Systems™, to emulate the look of masonry rendered walls. ![]() While a rendered masonry wall can add instant value to a home, bricks are expensive, a messy process and render can be prone to cracking. Not only does it provide a feature boundary wall, but it distinguishes the home from others, accentuating the property’s character and charm. The front wall is often one of the first features of a home to be noticed. ![]()
