CONCEPT
Profiles for the construction of façades include a wide choice of mullions and transoms.
The transoms are fixed to the mullions directly by screws, or by transom connector blocks without any machining. The system provides the choice between frontal and progressive installation/semi-unitized.
Transom connector block fixed transoms are drained through holes in pressure plates and cappings, whereas the direct screw-fixed transoms are drained through the mullions (cascade drainage).
The variety and range of its aesthetic variations allow the system to suit any architectural requirement, the dimensions of modules, range of inertia of profiles make the system to adapt to any technical constraints or requirement.
The technical solutions and options of the system reduce fabrication and installation time, while guaranteeing top performance and quality.
OPENING FRAMES
This façade system accepts glazing up to 49 mm. Possibility to fit in a concealed SSG italian window, concealed SSG tilt-and-turn window, in- or outward opening fire-brigade access window, and all the frame types of the Espace® 70 TH et Comète® 70 TH ranges.
In order to comply with the RT2012 standard, it is possible to increase the thermal efficiency by adding an extruded polyethylene foam spacer to achieve a minimum Uf of 0.9 W/K.m2.
The VEC bonding technique is sanctioned by an SSGS ETA in compliance with the current standards.
The initial type tests have been carried out with an italian window, thus authorizing the CE marking of the complete façade.
The thermal performance of this type of window corresponds perfectly to the overall performance of the façade, thus complying with the LBE and HPE/THPE RT2012 requirements.
