Original Abstract

One of the major issues of using vacuum insulation in buildings is their problematic installation and the risk of their damage during and after fitting which results in the degradation of their thermal insulation properties. One of the solutions can be fitting the vacuum insulation directly into hollow masonry pieces (small-size insulators in several layers). The paper describes the possibilities of using small-sized vacuum insulation for the production of ceramic masonry elements containing integrated insulation of very high thermal resistance. The integration of a vacuum insulator into a masonry block minimises the necessity to additionally adjust the insulator at the construction site and furthermore it greatly increases the protection of the insulator against mechanical damage. The choice of placement of the vacuum insulator in a block can eliminate the risk of damage (e.g. drilling or otherwise breaking through) in the structure during its service life.
