This has become very important following new trends in the construction industry which includes eco-friendly, energy-efficient and fire-resistant building construction.
Here are specific roles Modern Roof Insulation plays in fire resistant construction
1. Acts as Heat Barriers: In Nigeria it can be very hot during the dry season and in recent times the temperatures have increased considerably. Modern Roof insulation products act as heat barrier to protect the roof from fires both outside and inside the house.
These Modern Roof Insulation panels are cladded on Light Gauge Steel trusses to increase fire-resistance of the roof as LGS trusses are resistant to weather conditions.
2. Providing good roof drainage: Light Gauge Steel Trusses and Modern Roof insulation materials act as drainage.to direct water flow out of the roof. Using tapered insulation boards on Light Gauge steel trusses enhances good roof drainage in addition to its fire-resistant characteristics.
Therefore, Modern Roof Insulation ideas in fire resistant building construction begins with Light Gauge Steel Trusses. The roof insulation is applied directly to the sloped roof of Light Gauge Steel by spraying the material diagonally across it. By laying the insulation flat, air tightness and moisture resistance are provided between the roof and the wall.

Light Gauge Steel roofs are described by various characteristics, such as fire-resistant, structural support, moisture control, etc. and are compatible with Modern Roofing insulation materials such as rigid- insulation boards and Polyurethane spray foams.
