Reason #9 to choose CGL Systems: Design Here at CGL Systems, design considerations hold utmost importance for any project. From the choice of materials to the functionality and aesthetic appeal, every decision made contributes to the overall success of the building. And when it comes to selecting the facade system, CGL Systems Rainscreen facades emerge as a game-changer, providing a unique and innovative solution that caters to the specific needs of clients. One of the distinguishing features of CGL Systems Rainscreen facades is their ability to harmonize design and functionality seamlessly. These facades serve as a protective barrier against harsh weather conditions, ensuring the integrity of the building while also improving its thermal performance. With a wide range of rainwater products, we offer a comprehensive solution that not only shields the structure from precipitation but also enables effective drainage and water management. www.cglsystems.co.uk #design #79reasons #rainscreen #rainwater #roofing #cglsystems Tony Grimley MIoR MInstCPD Stuart McMillan Jim Blair Clark Williams (MIoR) (MCMI) (ACIBSE) (FInstCPD)

🏗️ What a Quality Steel Building Project Means to Us 🏗️ At Bighorn Steel Buildings, a quality construction project is about more than just a durable structure—it’s about delivering a solution that exceeds expectations. It means precision in design, ensuring the building meets both functional and aesthetic needs. It’s about using sustainable, high-grade materials that stand the test of time. Most importantly, it’s about collaboration—working closely with clients from concept to completion to create a space that truly serves their goals. That’s the Bighorn commitment. #SteelBuildings #QualityConstruction #Sustainability

The development and material evaluation of high-strength architectural concrete products requires a systematic approach that involves numerous individual steps. From the initial idea to the final finished product, the process encompasses meticulous selection and integration of raw materials and concrete mix design. Our manufacturing process combines carefully selected raw materials and customized concrete mix designs, resulting from extensive further development.

Looking for guidance on designing a building that will stand up to lateral loads? We break down the critical role that diaphragms and shear walls play in creating a resilient structure in our recent blog post on Building Design & Construction - BDC. We define diaphragms and shear walls, discuss the advantages of wood diaphragm design, and more. Read > apawood.ly/U2hm50TnNyI #Diaphragm #ShearWalls

Non-combustibility is the most important safety criterion. Breathable membranes serve a second highly significant function: they must protect buildings from wind and rain, and in some cases, even from driving rain depending on the facade. Therefore, it is crucial that non-combustible breather membranes are also waterproof, as demonstrated here with the W1 rating (the best possible performance).
JOIN OUR NEXT RIBA APPROVED CPD WEBINAR AT 9TH DECEMBER A1-W2 and A2-W1 Building Membranes Learn about best practice for state-of-the-art facade design, by combining high-class fire potection with excellent water proofing. This CPD seminar will look to cover topics on membrane types, Grenfell Tower findings to date, why A1-W2 and A2-W1 membranes are important for buildings, the attributes of Euroclass A1 and A2 building membranes, driving rain and damp effects on high-rise buildings. It will also cover the importance of certificates and compliance for offerings, which membrane for which type of buildings, references, installation considerations, fire, rain, and breathability tests. #stamisol #fireprotection #fireprevention #highrisebuilding #highriseapartments Book your seat directly at RIBA Academy: https://lnkd.in/euqJXqeB

ASP Access Floors International congratulates Hines Jackson Clements Burrows Architects (JCB) Icon on the magnificent Compressed Laminate Timber Construction T3 38 Wellington Street Collingwood Australia. We are proud to have been selected to design, manufacture, supply and install the sustainable access floor system into the commercial environment that offers tenancy flexibility for the developer within a modern commercial infrastructure. Our Access Floor System offers unhindered accessibility to power and data ensuring morph ability of the system throughout the lifespan of the build. With some CLT design and structure (of old) having a lifespan greater than 500 years, as does the access floor design concept, architects can leverage design options in timber and porcelains utilizing magnetic technology which eliminate substrates (ASP Magnes, ASP Eclipse). Substrates, when removed, may shorten the lifespan of the access floor system, as tenancies change, design changes, revision of open workspaces occur. The ASP Icon and Urban Access Floor Systems contain a 97% recycled content thereby delivering an EPD International AB EPD Australasia and attributing to measurements in LEED Certification Green Building Council of Australia U.S. Green Building Council. The system also offers acoustic benefits with 'real-time' CLT Environment Testing for the commercial environment : unparalleled research of an access floor system within a commercial environment. We are honored to have been part of this project that offers sustainable solutions that contribute to creating a Carbon Neutral Footprint. #sustainableconstruction #sustainabledevelopment #sustainablearchitecture #commercialconstruction #commercialarchitecture #commercialdevelopment #epd #accessfloor #raisedaccessfloor #architect #construction #carbonoffset
