Cathédrale Saint-Bavon Gand

La célèbre cathédrale Saint-Bavon domine majestueusement la capitale de la Flandre orientale. Ce magnifique monument n'a pas non plus totalement résisté aux ravages du temps. C'est pourquoi une campagne de restauration approfondie a été lancée pour faire entrer Saint-Bavon dans le XXIe siècle.
FOAMGLAS® systems are installed in the basement of the church in order to provide the best possible floor insulation. FOAMGLAS® Floor Board was cold adhered to the substructure of the crypt at St. Bavo's Cathedral in Ghent.
Why this choice?
Due to the high compressive strength (up to 160 tons/m²) of this solution the insulation will not deform;
-
It is a pure mineral material and therefore there is no risk of volatiles;
-
FOAMGLAS® is completely impervious to moisture.
-
FOAMGLAS® is also completely impervious to moisture.
With this project we have once again proven that cellular glass is the ideal material for buildings with the highest insulation demands.
