My flat roof (cold deck) on a new build extension has 9" x 2" joists, with firings tapering from 4" to 0.
I don't have my plans with me at the minute, but I want to sort out the roof insulation this morning. From memory I need to achieve a "U" value of 0.16 for a flat roof.
What product would be best to use between the joists to achieve this? It needs to be no thicker than 7" as I need to keep a 2" airspace over the top of the insulation. I also don't want to use the insulation-bonded to plaster board stuff thats available, just insulation between the joists & the 12mm plasterboard over the top, nailed to the joists.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
