3. nodullär- Lightweight Aggregates
Roof / Terraces   by  defination is the covering on the uppermost part of a building structure .
A roof protects the building and its contents from the rain / heat /earth quake effects of all climate  primarily in India against rains, heat , cold etc.,  
Majorly traditionally proven technologies like Brickbats / Integral Type are used as waterproofing
But nowadays this has been leads to failure , majorly because it Imposes unnecessary structural load on the building , besides resulting in :
Cracks reappeared due to temperature variations , causing water leakages
Damages to mother slab on restoration / repair
Lack of skilled manpower
Non-Availability of good quality bricks nor its quantity available as waste/excess
Not confused to be good waterproofing , it is used as filler for heat proofing
Innovating Traditional Methods

4. nodullär- Lightweight Aggregates
nodullär  aggregates are round in shape with coarse texture, off white / ivory coloured with a  cellular structure inside , are pelletized and  processed  resulting in light , porous aerated modules with a tough outer shell aggregates,  used for roof/heat insulation .
 In addition each of the  nodullär  balls also acts to form of geometric barrier which helps to :
Displace and irradiates heat over a larger surface area the air entrapped thus , reduces the rate of heat  transfer compared with dense, natural aggregates.
Resulting  the use of nodullär    in concrete improves, (i.e. reduces) the thermal conductivity. Therefore , the thermal properties of nodullär   have been used widely to improve thermal insulation in buildings and structures.
