Glass Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) Compressive strength: Typically 30 MPa to 60 MPa. Mix design: Contains glass fibers, providing high strength with reduced weight. Use: Commonly used in decorative panels, facades, and architectural elements. Benefits: Lightweight: GFRC is lighter than traditional concrete, making it easier to install for architectural elements. Durability: Resistant to weathering, corrosion, and fire, ensuring long-term performance in outdoor environments.

In addition to their numerous design options, #rainscreen cladding facades provide maximum functionality and safety. The sophisticated StoVentro sub-construction is invisible yet indispensable, forming the basic supporting structure for aesthetically appealing rainscreen cladding facade solutions. Because functionality and #energyefficiency are part of the system.

The StoVentec Glass Rainscreen system provides wide design flexibility, with many color, shape, texture, and materials options to fit any aesthetic and #architectural requirements. The system consists of glass-faced composite panels (outer layer) to keep out snow and rain. Mounting brackets between the panels produce a gap that permits air circulation (ventilation), moisture evaporation, and drainage. Thermal insulation is installed over the liquid-applied water-resistive barrier and between the rails of the StoVentro subconstruction that fastens directly to the building structure.

With the update of design concept and practicality, the detail treatment of small holes and round holes on the glass becomes particularly important. So do you prefer a design with holes or no holes? #homedecoration #realestate #officebuilding #glass #window

These stair nosing’s are integrated into a cementitious polymer coating with high traction and contrast. This overlay has many uses that can level floors, increase traction in slippery areas, and correct spalling, cracks, and other existing surface damage. This application also has decorative purposes, offering an easy way to revamp the aesthetic makeup of a business. The entryway into a business is where you'll make a first and lasting impression on your customers. There is a virtually endless variety of colors available with polymer overlays. In addition, you can use stamps to give indented overlay lines that mimic the appearance of natural paving materials. Finally, having a safe set of steps can prevent a fall down the stairs from being a lasting impression of your facility. The system shown here is designed for exteriors but works well in interior applications as well. Looking to get your project started?

What's the difference between rainscreen and insulated panels? Metal-faced insulated panels, sometimes called ‘composite’ or ‘sandwich panels’, can have a very similar aesthetic appearance to rainscreen façade systems when viewed from the external facing façade. However, unlike the built-up construction of a rainscreen façade cladding system, insulated panels are robust, factory engineered products that are fixed directly to the structural frame. There is no cavity within this solid, single unit design. Read more: https://zurl.co/AGzt #Rainscreen #InsulatedPanels #BuildingEnvelope #Construction #Cladding

The pathway to achieving aesthetic excellence is through the implementation of the TOP-BEST Window&Door System. This system boasts a seven-chamber design, which can be equipped with either a three-layer or four-layer seal to ensure exceptional heat preservation. The innovative chamber construction design results in a Uf value of 0.98w/m2·K and a Uw value of less than 1.0w/m2·K, or a Uf value of 0.78w/m2·K and a Uw value of 0.8w/m2·K or lower. Furthermore, the system allows for the use of glass up to 50mm thick, providing even better heat preservation and sound insulation. Additionally, the profile thickness meets and exceeds the requirements of the Nation A Grade Standard, measuring at 3.0mm. 🔍：https://lnkd.in/gkZWfQhw #WindowDoorSystem #windowinstallation #windowinstallation #buildingcomponents

Renovation and Recladding Because of their high strength, lightweight, and ability to reproduce the look of a wide variety of cladding materials, GFRC panels are ideally suited for recladding the exterior facades of existing buildings. GFRC panels can replace or be installed directly over deteriorating masonry, stucco, EIFS, terracotta, or other claddings, in many cases, without even removing the old cladding. The lightweight cladding superimposes minimal loads on the existing structure, often obviating the need to reinforce the building foundation or structure. Installation of panels can often be done from the outside of the building without disturbing the existing tenants or functions of the building.
