RCC ROOF HEAT PROOFING
(RCC) roofs are widely used in construction due to their durability and strength. However, they tend to absorb and retain heat, making indoor spaces unbearably hot, especially in summer. RCC roof heat proofing is an essential solution to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures, reduce energy costs, and extend the life of the roof. Proper heat proofing can reduce indoor temperatures by 5-10°C, significantly enhancing comfort. By reducing the need for air conditioning, heat proofing helps lower electricity bills. Several methods can be employed to reduce heat absorption by RCC roofs. These include coatings, insulation layers, and reflective materials. Below are some of the most effective techniques: Cool roof coatings are reflective paints that minimize heat absorption. These coatings contain white or reflective pigments that reflect sunlight and prevent heat buildup. Common options include. A green roof involves planting vegetation on the rooftop, which acts as a natural insulator. The soil and plants absorb heat,
