Eternit Slates, the market leader in double-lap slating, has launched a new detailed guide containing information on its wide range of 'heavenly' slates.
Like the relevance of the thermal, fire and acoustic regulations to building boards, and design details and considerations for each regulation.
Marley Eternit boards used in an external rainscreen cladding system can accommodate a wide range of insulation types and thicknesses to help meet the requirements of Part L, both for new build and refurbishment.
They are also excellent candidates for specification in a wide range of fire-resisting applications as they have been tested to EN 13501-1:2002 and have achieved Class A2, s1, dO (the second highest category).
They do not significantly contribute to fire load or growth, have the lowest category for smoke production, do not produce flaming droplets or particles, and can provide up to 120 minutes of fire resistance.
They can also help to significantly reduce the transmission of airborne sound in the walls and floors of houses, apartments and rooms for residential purposes, helping to meet Part E of the Building regulations and contributing towards the higher targets now set out in the Code for Sustainable Homes.
The A5 compendium includes product data on Marley Eternit's high-performance fibre cement Bluclad and Eter-board external render boards and Hydropanel internal partition board (that is especially suitable for wet areas) as well as cement particle structural sheathing board Duripanel.
Marley Eternit's range of building boards is one of the largest, most versatile building board ranges on the UK market as the company has drawn on its 90+ years of fibre cement expertise to come up with the ultimate offer for specifiers, installers and merchants.
