In flat roofs construction, whether in renovation, new construction or building extension, both in walkable and non-walkable roofs, Laterlite lightweight materials provide a response to several technical requirements when used to build several of the elements composing the roofing systems.
Laterlite lightweight and insulating solutions for roofs, based on Expanded Clay LWA, avoid unnecessary overloading of the building structure. They can be used for the drainage and evacuation of rainwater, as a screed to support of the waterproofing, for waterproofing protection and ballasting, as the insulation or as an insulation complement of the roof, to build the load-bearing structure of the roof, and even for the creation of green areas on roofs and in roof terraces
