CHICKEN WIRE ROOF AND METHOD OF INSULATION

摘要

An insulated roof structure is formed on an industrial building by mounting a support framework on the purlins in the partially-completed roof structure and moving the framework along the length of the purlins. A reel of wire mesh and a reel of sheet material are carried by the framework over each of the spaces between adjacent ones of the purlins and the reels are progressively unrolled and the layers of wire mesh and sheet material are applied to the spaces between the purlins as the support framework moves. Additional insulation can be blown upon or otherwise applied to the sheet material to fill the spaces between the purlins, and hard sheets of roofing material are applied to the purlins as the support framework progresses across the structure.
