Ever wondered how temperature changes can affect ground screw foundations? ๐ก๏ธ
During winter, cold temperatures can pull heat away from structures through the steel ground screws. In summer, the opposite can happen - heat can transfer back up through the system. This is known as thermal transfer, and itโs something that needs to be considered on certain builds.
Thatโs why we use rubber thermal pads ๐๐ผ
These pads help reduce thermal bridging between the structure and the ground screw connection, improving insulation performance and helping to create a more energy-efficient build.
