Steel structure workshops are mainly used for product processing and production. The insulation of the workshops can improve the working environment for workers and provide certain protection for the products produced. Therefore, most steel structure workshops will take corresponding insulation measures to isolate most of the sunlight radiation, reduce the heat conduction, and reduce the room temperature effect formed indoors, thereby reducing the temperature of the workshop and improving the environment of the steel structure workshop.
There are usually the following methods for insulation of steel structure workshops:
- Add insulation cotton to the steel structure roof. Add a layer of insulation glass wool to the steel structure roof beam, and you can choose 50mm, 75mm or 100mm according to your needs. Usually, adding insulation cotton to isolate light can reduce the room temperature by 5 to 8 degrees Celsius in summer. This method is simple and affordable. However, it is relatively complicated for the renovation of old workshops, because the original roof needs to be dismantled first, and then the wire mesh can be pulled before the insulation cotton can be laid. Then cover the original roof and re-waterproof it.
- Another commonly used method of heat insulation is to spray heat-insulating reflective coating directly on the roof panel. This coating can be applied on metal, concrete, wooden structure surface, plastic and other surfaces. It is simple and easy to operate. The coating is only 0.25mm, but the effect is equivalent to 10-15mm glass wool, and it can reflect 99% of infrared rays and the sound insulation effect is 50%.
- In addition to heat insulation and cooling, ventilation and cooling are also required to ensure that the heat and steam in the factory are discharged in time. In addition to adding windows, general ventilation generally requires the installation of roof ventilators or exhaust fans.
Ventilators are generally non-powered equipment, mainly relying on the principle of air convection. When there is a difference in indoor and outdoor air pressure, air activity will occur, thereby removing indoor exhaust gas and hot air. Common ones include turbine ventilators, ridge ventilators, and strip ventilators.
Exhaust fans are generally power equipment, relying on electric power, with better exhaust effect, and can adapt to ventilation in any environment. The disadvantage is that it requires electricity and is exposed to the outdoors for a long time, so the service life is not long.
- Forced cooling of steel structure workshops usually refers to the installation of air coolers or air conditioners. The cost is relatively high, but the effect is fast and the required temperature can be reached quickly.
Of course, there are other methods for heat insulation of steel structure workshops, but they are not commonly used. The above are the methods commonly used for heat insulation of steel structure workshops, and they are also more practical methods. If there is a need, corresponding measures can be taken. It is very necessary to insulate the workshop. The role of the workshop is to serve mankind, so it is necessary to provide people with a more comfortable working environment.
