ZIC Lightweight Insulating Concrete
For New Construction Applications
For many years, the Siplast ZIC System has been successfully installed over galvanized slotted corrugated metal deck where insulation and slope are required in a fully fire rated construction. By design, Siplast Lightweight Insulating Concrete Systems encapsulate Insulperm Insulation Board in insulating concrete. Specific insulation values, from low to very high, can be achieved to meet design requirements simply through the adjustment of Insulperm thicknesses. Because Insulperm can be installed in stair-step fashion, slope-to-drain is much easier to achieve than creating slope with complicated tapered rigid board insulation systems. Given its inherent fire resistant quality, ZIC remains an economical alternative to the expensive process of fireproofing necessary for other insulation systems to meet the same fire ratings achieved by the Siplast ZIC System.
The standard Siplast ZIC System is a 1:6 ratio of Portland cement volume to ZIC aggregate volume. ZIC is used in new construction applications over slotted galvanized metal decking. The standard 1:6 (cement to aggregate ratio) system requires a minimum 2-inch thickness of ZIC over the top of the Insulperm Insulation Board.
