Each guide offers technical background and practical design guidance tailored to specific applications. Designed to be clear and visually engaging, the guides strike a balance between technical breadth and depth, making them applicable to a wide range of project types. For users seeking more detailed information, each guide includes references to additional ROCKWOOL™ resources and supporting content.
Content Development
RDH’s writers combined their building science expertise with ROCKWOOL’s product knowledge to develop clear, technically sound content for each guide. RDH’s focus was on enclosure-related topics—heat, air, and moisture control—along with installation and constructability considerations relevant to those themes.
Each guide began with a literature review and a content outline developed by RDH and refined in collaboration with ROCKWOOL. From there, our technical authors drafted the copy, suggested visual assets (including photos, illustrations, and diagrams), developed tables, identified key pull quotes, and proposed opportunities to incorporate case studies for added relevance and impact. We also made recommendations for visual assets and some document design elements, and performed final technical reviews.
