INTRODUCTION
What is ventilated facade? Advantages?

▪ Lightweight ▪ Excellent resistance to fire


▪ Strong ▪ Frost proof
▪ Durable ▪ Resistant to fungi, algea
▪ Aesthetical ▪ Minimal maintenance
Sub-structure
SUPPORTING FRAME - ALUMINIUM

Why aluminium?
▪ Lightweight
▪ Strong
▪ Resistance to corrosion
▪ Aluminium or Stainless Steel fixings
▪ Profiles are extruded
– Many design options
▪ Relative significant thermal expansion rate
▪ (1,5-2,0mm / 1lm)
SUPPORTING FRAME - ITEMS

▪ Angle bracket with T and L


profiles = Most common
System
▪ T = Joint support
▪ L = intermediate support
▪ Double Brackets
– Carry weight of panels
▪ Single Brackets
– Resists wind loads
▪ Thermostops
– Stops thermal bridge
