Introduction


The Party Wall Integrity Barrier is supplied in long lengths and consists of semi-rigid profiled solid DPC, to which is bonded a thick alkaline earth silicate fibre insulation layer. The profiled design ensures no mortar-bridging or capillary attraction can function where an abutting solid or cavity party wall joins the external masonry skin. The Type PWIB promotes acoustic compartmentalisation, addressing flanking transmission (sound attenuation). It also introduces effective fire integrity measures. Designated a Cavi240 product, achieving 240 minutes fire integrity when independently tested.
