Engineered Assemblies (EA) RVRS TcLip™ SYSTEM2 (S2) Executive Summary In response to the rapidly increasing demand for thermally effective wall assemblies to meet the evolving National Building Code, EA has designed a Thermal Clip. The TcLip™ S2 comes in three clear field clip options; T100, T125 and T150, which accommodate 4”, 5”, and 6” of exterior insulation. The system comprises aluminum clips connected to horizontal and vertical sub-girts (framing members) that support cladding panels. The clips are designed to attach to a steel stud back-up wall/concrete block/concrete (other substrates may be considered). Thermal Performance The TcLip™ S2 meets the prescriptive requirements for non-residential steel stud walls in ASHRAE 90.1-2007/2010 for all climate zones. Performance of the system is validated through Modeling and the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) package completed by Morrison Hershfield. The thermal solver and modeling procedures utilized for this study were extensively calibrated and validated for ASHRAE Research Project 1365-RP “Thermal Performance of Building Envelope Details for Mid- and High-Rise Construction (1365-RP)1. (See Engineered Assemblies Inc. for full report). Structural Performance The TcLip™ S2 is engineered to accommodate Facade panels generally 826mm in thickness and up to 35kg/m2 that require vertical back ventilation of minimum 25mm free air space. The system provides vertical framing members that allow thermal expansion of both the vertical framing member and the movement of the panel. The vertical framing members are attached to horizontal framing members and may be positioned as required to accommodate panel fastening and vertical joint location. The horizontal framing member attaches to the TcLip™ S2 and can be adjusted to plumb out the structure. The spacing of the horizontal framing is adjustable to suit the design loads imposed on the system.

RVRS TcLip™ S2 design summary: The S2 framing system is designed to meet the dynamic performance requirements for thermally broken Lightweight Facade materials. The principles of the S2 design meet the guidelines of application and warranty requirements for lightweight facade materials including Fibre Cement, Phenolic and HPL Veneer, Porcelain and other non-structural facade materials. The S2 system is designed to distribute the imposed loads back to light gauge structural stud framing as well as concrete or block wall structures. The patented TcLip™ supports horizontal framing members that can be adjusted for wall alignment and extend beyond stud location for universal attachment of vertical framing members that support the panel. The TcLip™ comes in three clear field options; T100, T125 & T150, accommodating 4", 5", and 6" semi-rigid insulation. The depth is chosen by the required Effective R-Value of the system. S2 framing members remain identical for all system depths and are engineered to meet the following design principles: • Coefficient movement of individual facade panel • Prescribed panel joint size and fastener location • Unobstructed rear ventilation of panel • Expansion gaps in vertical framing members to allow for deflection and movement of framing members and building structure • Deflection strength of L/300 • Adjustability for structure misalignment • Post-disaster design requirement

Summary: • The SYSTEM2 Design Guide meets the requirements of ASHRAE 90.1- 2007/2010 for all climate zones • The SYSTEM2 Design Guide is a Rear Ventilated Rain Screen (RVRS) facade • The SYSTEM2 Design Guide is adjustable to plumb out structure and has adaptable vertical framing members • The SYSTEM2 Design Guide is lightweight manufactured using low embodied energy, non-combustible and recyclable components • The SYSTEM2 Design Guide is “system integrated”.

APPENDIX C - EFFECTIVE ASSEMBLY R-VALUES The following tables represent thermal performance of SYSTEM2 where nominal insulation value translates into effective value through varied TcLip™ vertical spacing. The vertical spacing in the following tables (24”/36”/48”) is determined by the wind load experienced when a facade material dead load of 7.5lb/psf is considered. Structural load tables are available on request for engineering calculations. NOTE: The 48” vertical spacing that follows is based on a facade skin dead load of 7.5lb/psf when wind load is 40lb/psf or lower. Higher wind loads may require tighter vertical TcLip™ spacing. Refer to pages 32, 33, 34 of the design guide, for wind load to vertical spacing ratio.

APPENDIX C – EFFECTIVE ASSEMBLY R-VALUES Table 1:Horizontal Girt & Vertical Girt Spacing Provided by Engineered Assemblies Inc. (Steel Stud Wall Only)

For TcLip™ assemblies with uninsulated steel stud walls the “effective R-value” of the clip systems ranges from 76% to 90% effective, depending on insulation level and spacing, compared to the assembly nominal thermal resistance for all the clip systems. The results show that increasing the vertical spacing from 24 to 48 inches results in up to an 11% reduction in the U-value (R-3 gain). The addition of R-12 batt insulation in the stud cavity adds up to R-6 to the effective R-value of the assembly. This results in a range of 63% to 75% effective due to the thermal bridging effects of the steel studs.

1. INTRODUCTION The Engineered Assemblies TcLip Thermal Clip System is an aluminum thermal clip system for attaching rain-screen cladding systems for wall assemblies with exterior insulation. Morrison Hershfield was contracted by Engineered Assemblies Inc. (E.A.I) to provide an overview of the energy codes in the major markets in Canada and evaluate the thermal performance of their thermal clip system for various scenarios. The aluminum clips are connected to horizontal and vertical sub-girts that support rainscreen panel cladding. The clips may be attached to steel stud walls, concrete mass walls and concrete masonry walls. Thermal breaks are provided at the connection between the sub-girt and clips via a cork/neoprene pad and between the clips and back-up wall via an aerogel insulation pad. A summary of the components for the evaluated system follows and detailed drawings can be found in Appendix A.

2. MODELING PROCEDURES Modeling was done using the Nx software package from Siemens, which is a general purpose computer aided design (CAD) and finite element analysis (FEA) package. The thermal solver and modeling procedures utilized for this study were extensively calibrated and validated for ASHRAE Research Project 1365-RP “Thermal Performance of Building Envelope Details for Mid- and High-Rise Construction (1365-RP)1. The thermal transmittance (U-Value) or “effective R-value” was determined using the methodology presented in 1365-RP and is summarized in Appendix B.

THERMAL ANALYSIS

The following section provides U-Value results for both the clear field area and an assembly including a typical floor slab detail. For effective assembly R-Values please see Appendix C.

3.1

Clear Field Thermal Performance

Clear field assemblies were evaluated with the T100, T125 and T150 clip systems, which accommodate 4”, 5”, and 6” of exterior insulation respectively for steel stud walls, mass concrete walls, and concrete masonry walls. Drawings for these systems on a steel stud wall, including dimensions and material properties are shown in Appendix A.

3.1.1 Clear Field Thermal Performance with Steel Stud Walls Thermal performance of the TcLip system with uninsulated and insulated steel stud back-up walls were evaluated. The TcLip systems were evaluated with horizontal girts and vertical tracks in the same arrangement as Figure 1.

http://www.morrisonhershfield.com/ashrae1365research/Pages/Insights-Publications.aspx

Figure 1: TcLip System on Steel Stud Wall

Each of these systems was modeled for three vertical clip spacings and girt/sub girt arrangements as summarized in Table 1. The horizontal spacing is aligned with the steel stud spacing. The spacings are based on structural loading information provided by Engineered Assemblies Inc. Semi-rigid mineral wool, R-4.2 per inch (RSI-0.74 per 25 mm), was modeled outboard the exterior sheathing with 90 mm steel studs in the back-up wall spaced at 16â&#x20AC;? o.c.. Table 2 shows the clear field U-values of the three clip systems with the uninsulated steel stud back-up wall while Table 3 shows the clear field U-values of the same clip systems with a steel stud wall with R-12 batt interior insulation. Effective R-values are given in Appendix C. Example temperature profiles are provided in Appendix D. Table 1: Horizontal Girt and Vertical Girt Spacing Provided by Engineered Assemblies Inc.

For TcLip assemblies with uninsulated steel stud walls the “effective R-value” of the clip systems range from 76% to 90% effective, depending on insulation level and spacing, compared to the assembly nominal thermal resistance2 for all the clip systems. The results show that increasing the vertical spacing from 24 to 48 inches results in up to a 11% reduction in the U-value (R-3 gain). The addition of R-12 batt insulation in the stud cavity adds up to R-6 to the effect R-value of the assembly. This results in a range of 63% to 75% effective due to the thermal bridging effects of the steel studs.

2 The assembly 1D nominal resistance is the performance of the assembly with no thermal bridging. This is the theoretical maximum performance for the assembly.

3.1.2 Clear Field Thermal Performance with Concrete Walls The thermal performance of the TcLip systems were evaluated with a concrete mass backup wall with horizontal girts and vertical tracks in the same arrangement as Figure 2.

Figure 2: Thermal Clip System on Concrete Wall

Each of the systems was modeled for three vertical clip spacings and girt/sub girt arrangements. The clips and girt/sub girts were spaced horizontally at 32” o.c. and vertically at 24”, 36”, and 48”. Semi-rigid mineral wool, R-4.2 per inch (RSI-0.74 per 25 mm), was modeled outboard the 8” concrete mass wall. Note, these walls were modelled without interior stud wall finishes. Table 4 shows the clear field U-values of the three clip systems and clip/girt spacing arrangements. Effective R-values are given in Appendix C and example temperature profiles are shown in Appendix D.

Slab Edge Linear Transmittance

The slab edge detail evaluated for the TcLip thermal clip system has aluminum clips fastened to the slab and to the steel stud wall. Drawings for this detail and material properties are found in Appendix A. The slab edge detail was modeled in the same manner as the previous assemblies for three clip/girt arrangements and with uninsulated steel stud wall. Table 6 summarizes the thermal performance values for a 9 foot floor to ceiling height (and 8 inch slab), including the effects of the slab edge detail for each clip system. Effective R-Values are given in Appendix C. Linear transmittance values are also provided, which allow the overall U-value to be calculated for any floor to ceiling height. More information on utilizing linear transmittance is provided in Appendix A. Example temperature distribution images are shown in Appendix D. The slab edge detail increases the overall U-value by approximately 5% (an R-1.0 reduction) compared to the clear field U-value for a 9 foot floor to ceiling height. The linear transmittance values are not significantly impacted by the vertical clip spacing. There is also very little difference in linear transmittance between the T100, T125, and T150 clip systems. Therefore a single linear transmittance for the slab is applicable for any vertical clip spacing.

BUILDING ENVELOPE REQUIREMENTS IN CANADA

For most provinces, the National Building Code of Canada is used as the basis for their respective building codes, with changes and implementations tailored for each province. For single family or low-rise (Part 9) buildings, provincial codes typically have their requirements for building envelope minimum insulation levels, however, for commercial or mid and high rise construction (non Part 9), many codes reference existing standards from national and international organizations. In regards to the building envelope, the most commonly referenced standards across Canada are ASHRAE 90.1 â&#x20AC;&#x153;Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildingsâ&#x20AC;? and the Model National Energy Code for Buildings (MNECB) 1997. The National Energy Code for Buildings (NECB) 2011 has recently been issued to replace MNECB 1997. While these two standards differ in their specific requirements, they both employ three options for showing compliance: Prescriptive, Trade-off and Performance. The prescriptive path awards compliance for explicitly meeting all provisions of the code relevant to the project in question. For the building envelope, assemblies must be lower than a given maximum thermal transmittance U-value or must meet or exceed insulation values in a prescribed assembly. These requirements can be based on climate region, building type/principal heating source and framing type, depending on the standard. The prescriptive path is widely used as it is fairly straight forward and building components need only be assessed individually. However, some of the prescriptive requirements may be difficult to achieve due to design trends. For example, in ASHRAE 90.1-2007, the prescriptive path requires a glazing to wall ratio of less than 40%. If these prescriptive requirements cannot be met, then another compliance path must be used. The trade-off path allows for projects to trade-off the performance of building envelope components (i.e. roofs, walls, and windows) when the prescriptive requirements are not met for each and every item. With this approach, the performance of some envelope components may be lower than the prescribed values in the standard as long as other components exceed the requirements so that the overall building envelope is deemed to be equal or better than the standard. For example, this allows for low thermally performing walls if the roof sufficiently compensates above its prescriptive values. The trade-off method allows for some flexibility with the prescriptive values. This approach can be demonstrated using either specific calculations (provided in the standards) or through computer software that is typically provided by the authors of the standard. The performance path requires an evaluation of the annual energy use of the whole building. This must be done using computer simulation, where the proposed building and its systems are modeled and compared to a compliance building. The compliance building contains the same shape, size, occupancy and scheduling of proposed building, but all of its systems and individual components meet the minimum requirements of the standard. For example, for the compliance building, the thermal performance of the walls of the compliance building must match the prescriptive U-values of the standard. The proposed design is acceptable if the annual energy use is less than or equal to that of the compliance building. Energy certification programs, such as Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), have used MNECB and ASHRAE performance paths as this can allow for much greater flexibility in design. The performance path takes into account other variables

such as building orientation, higher efficiency HVAC systems and lighting controls, which would not give any benefit with the other two compliance paths. Each standard gives requirements that specify what can and cannot be included with the energy model and which energy modeling programs can be used. The Ontario Building Code (OBC) contains a supplementary standard SB-10 to deal with energy in non-Part 9 buildings. As of January 1st, 2012, SB-10 incorporates ASHRAE 90.12010; however the prescriptive path is modified by including the values from ASHRAE 189.1 â&#x20AC;&#x153;Standard for the Design of High Performance, Green Buildingsâ&#x20AC;? for envelope requirements. For the performance path, compliance can be achieved by modeling energy savings 5% better than ASHRAE 90.1-2010, 25% better than MNECB 1997 or meeting ASHRAE 90.12010 modified by ASHRAE 189.1. Currently, both the Alberta Building Code (ABC) and the Quebec Construction Code (CCQ) only have prescriptive values for minimum insulation levels in Part 9 buildings; however it does not contain any requirements for non Part 9 buildings. It is our understanding that both provinces are considering adopting NECB 2011 in order to assist in meeting their energy efficiency targets. In British Columbia there are two governing documents. The majority of the province falls under the British Columbia Building Code (BCBC), while Vancouver follows the Vancouver Building Bylaw (VBBL). For non-Part 9 buildings, BCBC references ASHRAE 90.1-2004, while VBBL references the more recent ASHRAE 90.1-2007. The 90.1-2007 requirements are more stringent than 90.1-2004 (lower allowable glazing ratios, lower U-values, higher efficiency systems etc.), however the approach remains the same. The BCBC has recently adopted new energy efficiency requirements that allow a choice of compliance to either the ASHRAE 90.1-2010 or the NECB 2011. The effective date is December 20, 2013. VBBL will also likely update to at least the requirements in BCBC soon. Table 8 summarizes the prescriptive wall assembly requirements from ASHRAE 90.1 2004, 2007 and 2010 for steel framed buildings along with wall assembly requirements from NECB 2011. Canadian climate zones in both ASHRAE and NECB are divided by heating degree days (HDD). NECB divides zones every 1000 HDD, however ASHRAE groups climate zones by 1000 or 2000 HDD. Both zone types are included. ASHRAE 90.1 tends to be updated every 3 years. From this chart, it can be seen that the trend from 2004-2007 was to decrease the maximum U-value. The decrease in U-value appears to be based on increasing the amount of continuous exterior insulation. Adjusting the building envelope prescriptive requirements does not happen with every cycle (20072010 did not see further decreases to U-value); however ASHRAE 90.1 may choose to do so in the future as other standards, such as NECB 2011, already have more stringent prescriptive requirements. Moving forward, to achieve realistic thermal performance goals, standards will need to begin to account for thermal bridging in details. Currently, many codes in Canada offer exemptions for the thermal effects of details (such as slab edges) or their inclusion is often left to interpretation by designers. For example, in the ASHRAE 90.1 performance path, slab edges are typically ignored as long as they are less than 5% of the wall area. Depending on the detail, these thermal bridges can have a major impact on the thermal performance of the building envelope.

For exterior insulated steel stud assemblies, that require cladding to be attached to the structure with structural members, must be less than a maximum assembly U-value3 to meet the prescriptive requirements for all the standards. The T-clip for all the evaluated clip spacings meets the U-value requirements with less insulation than the common site solutions as shown in Table 9 and Figure 4. These comparison systems are from the analysis done for ASHRAE Research Project 1365-RP. A summary of this work is found in Appendix B.

No exterior insulated wall system with cladding exists that satisfies the current definition of continuous insulation in the ASHRAE 90.1 standards, therefore only the U-value is relevant for all the performance paths.

CONCLUSION

From this report, the following conclusions can be made: •

For mineral wool insulation and the modeled thickness and clip spacing, the clip system assembly U-values range between 0.041 BTU/hr∙ft2∙oF - 0.061 BTU/hr∙ft2∙oF (0.231 W/m2K - 0.347 W/m2K).

•

With the inclusion of the proposed slab edge, the wall U-value is increased by, at most, 5% for the same range of clip size and spacing.

•

With the inclusion of interior R-12 batt, the clear wall thermal resistance gains approximately an effective R-6.

In terms of code compliance, the values given in this report can be used with all three compliance paths. For designers who are concerned with energy efficiency, beyond compliance, or as building codes change to include thermal bridging in details, the slab edge transmittance provided will assist in calculating a more accurate thermal performance of the building envelope.

Engineered Assemblies (EA) BearClaw Executive Summary In response to the rapidly increasing demand for lightweight, high performance, rear hung facade systems, EA has designed the BearClaw. The system is comprised of aluminum cleats and Rails connected to vertical subgirts (framing members). The cleats are designed to attach to cladding products through the use of synthetic polymer bonding agents by Dynamic Bond, undercut anchor or blind fastener. Structural Performance The BearClaw is engineered to accommodate facade panels generally 8-1 3 mm in thickness and up to 35kg/m2. When used in conjunction with SYSTEM2, vertical framing members are required. The vertical framing members are attached back to horizontal framing members. The horizontal framing member attaches to the TcLip™ S2 and can be adjusted to plumb out the structure. The spacing of the horizontal framing is adjustable to suite the design loads imposed on the system. *Note: This guide is to be used in conjunction with ‘RVRS SYSTEM2 Design Guide’. Use of the BearClaw system may require training and certification in the use of Dynamic Bond. Data on Dynamic Bond performance and testing available upon request. Contact Engineered Assemblies for more information on this matter.

EQUITONE fibre cement facade materials When Ludwig Hatschek invented fibre cement in the late 19th century, he combined the basic elements of the earth: mineral materials, water, air and fire (heat) in a simple filtration process. He named the resulting material ¨Eternit¨, hinting at the superior durability of this new material. Our mother company, Etex, has been manufacturing fibre cement materials since 1905. The most prestigious incarnation in this proud heritage of unique materials is the EQUITONE® facade material range. The Hatschek production process makes each EQUITONE facade panel unique with an individual fibre cement texture. Most EQUITONE facade materials are through-coloured with a raw, unfinished character. In the 1950s leading architects such as Walter Gropius pioneered the use of coated fibre cement panels using the ventilated facade (rainscreen) system. Designer Willy Guhl created the famous “loop chair” from 1 piece of fibre cement in 1954. This design still bears witness to the core qualities of the fibre cement base material: thin, light, durable and beautiful. In 1987, Herzog & De Meuron designed the Ricola storage building in Laufen using uncoated fibre cement panels. The resulting shutter facade, which is a reference to the cardboard boxes inside, inspired our company to start the industrial development of raw untreated fibre cement materials. Today, EQUITONE has a full range of through-coloured, untreated fibre cement materials. Leading architects of our time are exploring and transforming the EQUITONE material in remarkable facade designs.

Design potential

EQUITONE facade materials offer unparalleled design flexibility. The fibre cement material is through-coloured, which means the surface displays the inner texture and colour of the core fibre cement material. No matter what facade design options you explore, the through-coloured materials can be transformed into crisp, monolithic facade details. EQUITONE facade materials come in a maximum panel size of 1.25 x 3m (4Â´x 10Â´) and can be transformed into any size or shape using standard tools in the workshop or on site. The material can be perforated using waterjet or CNC machines, large or very small cuts can be made, it can even be embossed and printed. Some designers have used it for interiors or furniture. The through-coloured material allows you to achieve flawless intricate details.

EQUITONE [linea]

Arch.: Studio Weave, London, UK

EQUITONE [linea] is a unique 3D shaped, through-coloured facade material that plays with light and shadow. EQUITONE [linea] displays a linear texture that highlights the raw inner texture of the core fibre cement material. Every moment of the day, the changing angle of the daylight gives the facade material a different aspect. The material comes in a large panel size and can be transformed into any size or shape in the workshop or on site. No matter what design options you explore, EQUITONEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s through-coloured nature guarantees crisp, monolithic details. Both visible and invisible fixing options exist for EQUITONE [linea].

The Test of Time Ti m e l e s s e l e g a n c e , p r o v e n p e r f o r m a n c e , strength and versatility make Series 300 the metal roofing system of choice. For more than 20 years, the Series 300 ® standing seam metal roofing system has been protecting buildings across North America. After two decades, even the earliest Series 300 roofs are as resilient and beautiful as ever. The remarkable Series 300 structural panel adds dynamic visual impact while providing decades of protection from even the most severe weather conditions, with a total life-cycle cost that is significantly less than that of other roofing systems. With its zeal and reputation for excellence, the IMETCO team is dedicated to offering a level of service and support that exceeds expectations. Since your satisfaction is our only measure of success, we strive for accuracy, quality and unprecedented service on every order.

Long Panels

Curving When it comes to curving, no one does it better than IMETCO. The first to curve a symmetrical seam structural panel, IMETCO can achieve the tightest curves in the industry (having curved to radii as tight as 5’) and minimize oil-canning.

Tapering With Series 300, your tapered metal roof design will achieve the stunning visual impact desired. Our dedicated manufacturing, engineering, and project management teams work closely with designers and contractors to address installation challenges, reduce waste, and provide panels that are customtapered for a perfect fit. IMETCO factoryforms each tapered panel, which may exceed 80-feet in length, from a single piece of metal, with stiffening beads adjacent to the vertical legs, to preserve the flat, clean look of the panel’s center.

www.imetco.com R0311

When your project calls for long panels, rely on the experts. IMETCO’s logistics specialists can coordinate transportation of panels up to 85 feet in length, allowing you the convenience and cost benefits of factory-formed panels for a wider range of projects.

We continue to raise the standards for performance and design flexibility of metal roofing through ongoing product development. Recently, IMETCO celebrated two groundbreaking achievements in Series 300 panel curving: A concave curve; and a continuous, smooth concave-toconvex “S” curve. These extraordinary S-shaped panels are truly a sight to behold as your eye travels along the reverse-curve radius and continues seamlessly along the tangent to the standard convex curve. Whether manufactured in our factory and shipped to you, or field curved on the job site, IMETCO’s curving capabilities are unsurpassed.

Field Forming and Curving IMETCO’s field formed panels offer the same warranted, tested, and proven performance as those manufactured in our plant. Our full-service factory-quality forming equipment features 16 roller stations. It is shipped with a de-coiler to your job site on a 45-foot trailer, and operated on-site by our fabrication experts.

Contact your IMETCO representative for more information.

Re-roofing with Series 300 Series 300 brings the advantages of symmetry to architects, installers and building owners alike. With vertical legs that are equal in both size and profile, and a separate seam cap that joins the panels, Series 300 can be installed starting from any point on the roof to produce a sleek, balanced, proportional look that complements any design.

Series 300 is ideal for almost any retrofit or roof replacement application, regardless of existing roof condition or type. As an economical alternative to replacing an entire roof, Series 300 can be installed directly over the existing roof. This eliminates the cost and environmental impact of tearing off and disposing of the old roofing materials, while providing: • Long-term weather-tight performance • An absolutely stunning architectural enhancement • Additional insulation to improve energy efficiency • Uninterrupted access to your building In many cases, very few modifications are required to prepare the existing roof to receive the new metal panels. To make replacing your roof as painless as possible, IMETCO offers engineering services, framing assemblies, and installation support.

Installers have better control over when and where panels are installed, and can even run simultaneous crews to cut completion time in half. Since there are no interlocking male/female seams to worry about, Series 300 panels can be installed in either, or both, directions at any time. With this innovative system design, roof protrusions and other detail work will not disrupt installation. Crews can simply move around the obstacle and continue working, then return to insert missing panels later. The seam cap features , with its factory-applied hot-melt sealant, is quickly and mechanically seamed. IMETCO’s seamer permanently seals the caps at a rate of 60 feet per minute, and runs in both directions. This eliminates the need for a third crew member to chase and retrieve the seamer after each course is run. Series 300 also reduces material waste since each piece of a cut panel can be used for the opposite sides of a detail condition. Perhaps the most compelling advantage of a symmetrical metal roof is that symmetry simplifies repair. In the event that a Series 300 panel needs to be removed or replaced, ONLY that panel needs to be removed or replaced – not every other panel between it and the roof’s edge. And while Series 300 outperforms any other metal roofing panel available, its symmetry provides peace-of-mind to building owners, designers and installers who are prepared for any contingency.

Wind Uplift Analysis IMETCO provides metal roofing systems that are engineered to the unique needs of each project, bringing the designer’s vision to life. The process begins with a Wind Uplift Analysis for each individual structure, conducted by IMETCO’s engineers. This analysis follows the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE 7) standard, Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures, to determine a building’s design wind loads. The Wind Uplift Analysis considers a structure’s geographic location, mean roof height, roof pitch/geometry, exposure condition, occupancy class, and other factors that impact wind load capacity. Armed with these results, designers can specify the right roofing system for their project every time, assured of compliance with the International Building Code (IBC).

Unlimited Thermal Movement and Watertight Performance The dynamic nature of a metal roof is embraced and facilitated by the Series 300 system. The one-piece clip, isolated seam sealant, custom trim, flashing, and system details all work together to accommodate the natural expansion and contraction of metal that occurs when it is exposed to varying temperatures. Each Series 300 roof is engineered for unlimited thermal movement to maintain the roof’s structural integrity and provide a lifetime of watertight protection.

Performance-Inspired Metal Roofing Day after day, roofs are assaulted by rain, snow, heat, wind and other environmental attacks. A Series 300 system, with its lasting resilience, shields its building from these unforgiving conditions and provides building owners with a lifetime of protection for their investment. The precision engineering of a Series 300 roof delivers long-term weather-tight performance with Triple Threat Protection™ against water infiltration from ponding/standing water, daily rainfall, and wind-driven rain. It has been rigorously tested to be leakproof and to withstand hurricane-force winds. As part of the Series 300/Perfrom-A-Deck assembly, the system is engineered and tested as recommended by the FEMA 361 Design and Construction Guidance for Community Safe Rooms for resistance to wind uplift and impact from wind-borne debris. An ideal system for structural and/or architectural applications, Series 300 features a 2⅜-inch high symmetrical seam with a separate, easy-toinstall seam cap. Series 300 can span across open purlins and carry snow and wind loads on slopes as moderate as ¼:12. It can also be installed over any solid deck, on steeper slopes, and even vertically as a wall panel. Series 300’s unique one-piece concealed clip, made of heavy 16-gauge galvanized or stainless steel, is designed to provide maximum structural integrity while allowing unlimited thermal movement. The clip also elevates the panel 3/8-inch off the substrate to allow for air movement.

UNDERWRITER LABORATIORIES UL 580 – CLASS 90 Standard for Tests for Uplift Resistance of Roof Assemblies The following excerpt is taken form the Introduction and Scope of the UL Standard. The method of test specified in this standard is intended to determine the uplift resistance of roof assemblies consisting of the roof deck and roof covering materials. It is applicable to any type of roof assembly which is adaptable to the test equipment. Tests to evaluate other potential hazards of roof assemblies are not within the scope of these requirements. The purpose of this test is to evaluate the comparative resistance of roof assemblies to positive and negative pressures. The test evaluates the roof deck, its attachment to supports, and roof covering materials. It does not evaluate roofs adjacent to chimneys, overhanging eaves, or similar construction, connections of the assembly to main structural supports (girders, columns, or other supports), structural integrity of secondary supports (purlins, joist, bulb tees, or the like), or deterioration of roofing materials.

UNDERWRITER LABORATIORIES UL 790 TESTS FOR FIRE RESISTANCE OF ROOF COVERING MATERIALS Series 300 Standing Seam & Batten Seam The following is an excerpt for the UL 790 Foreword and Introduction. Foreword This Standard contains a description of the basic test method(s) for evaluating products covered by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) under its Follow-Up Service for this category within the limitations in the Standard. This test method(s) is based upon sound engineering principles, research, records of tests and field experience, and an appreciation of the problems of manufacture, installation, and use derived form consultation with and information obtained form manufacturers, users, inspection authorities, and others having specialized experience. It is subject to revision as further experience and investigation may show is necessary or desirable. Introduction These requirements cover the performance of roof covering material exposed to fire conditions, and are intended to indicate the fire-resistance characteristics of roof coverings when exposed to fire origination form sources outside a building on which the coverings are installed. They are applicable to roof coverings intended for installation on ether combustible or noncombustible decks when the roof coverings are applied as intended. A combustible deck is formed of wood (sheathing boards or plywood). A noncombustible deck is formed of metal, concrete, or poured gypsum. Class A roof coverings are effective against severe fire test exposures. Under such exposures, roof coverings of this class are not readily flammable, afford a fairly high degree of fire protection to the roof deck, do not slip from position, and are not expected to produce flying brands.

FACTORY MUTUAL RESEARCH CORPORATION (FMRC) Approval Standard Class 1 Panel Roofs No. 4471 In order to have a Class 1 Panel Roof listed in the Approval Standard, the panel system must meet the criteria for heat, wind, foot traffic, hail, and water leakage under controlled laboratory conditions. Currently, FMRC has not implemented the water leakage test. All other tests are applicable. The panel roof assembly meeting the requirements of this standard shall receive a listing in the FMRC Approval Guide as a Class 1-X-Y roof panel: where X indicates the Hail Damage Resistance (MH or SH) and Y indicates the Windstorm Classification (60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135, 150, 165, 180, 195). However, the absence of a Hail Damage Resistance indicates SH. For example a Class 1-120 roof panel indicates the Class 1 roof panel has a severe hail damage resistant rating and a 1-120 Windstorm Classification. The Windstorm Classification is a static uniform pressure test similar to the ASTM E1592 Test Method for Structural Performance of Sheet Metal Roof and Siding Systems by Uniform Static Pressure Difference. The panel systems are tested to failure. Because the wind rating is listed in 15 lbs. Increments and the panel system is tested to failure, the reported ratings will be a conservative value. For example, a panel system ma fail at 103 lbs per square foot but the report rating can only be a 1-90.

Product Guide: United Zinc® Material for Architectural Applications

About United Zinc The Only Domestic Architectural Zinc - Processed and Formed in America Since the early 19th century, zinc has remained a preferred roofing material throughout the world. Due to the material’s natural beauty, sustainability and longevity, its popularity in the United States continues to grow.

Now United Zinc, the only domestically produced zinc available to the construction industry in the United States, is available exclusively from IMETCO. United Zinc is timeless, durable, versatile and environmentally responsible. It is pre-treated for immediate aesthetic appeal and continues to develop is distinctive patina as it ages, which creates a durable, corrosion-resistant surface making United Zinc a long-lasting material suitable for most climates. It resists mold, mildew and fungus, but its runoff is “clean” and will not harm desirable vegetation like other exotic metals can. In addition to being non-corrosive and environmentally-friendly, United Zinc is virtually maintenance free; its self-healing nature can even make scratches disappear over time. In terms of recyclability, United Zinc not only has extremely high recycled content (more than 30% comes from recycled or secondary zinc), but it is also 100% recyclable and has a high scrap value.

Backside coating Unlike the external surfaces that develop a protective zinc carbonate patina, the underside of zinc is subject to corrosion from moisture accumulation in the absence of carbon dioxide and needs to be properly protected. Ventilation and a back-side barrier coating are effective means of providing this protection.

United Zinc features a high-performance backside coating to help protect the material from interior surface corrosion. This 5 mil plastisol coating significantly outperforms other common zinc coatings when subjected to abrasion testing. Due to the thermal expansion and contraction of zinc, superior abrasion resistance is critical to protecting the bare underside of zinc from premature corrosion that can be caused by condensation and trapped moisture.

Compatibility with Wood and Plywood Zinc can be used with certain woods, such as poplar, spruce, and pine. More acidic woods (such as chestnut, Douglas Fir, oak, larch, birch and red, white and yellow cedar), should be avoided. Zinc should not come in direct contact with plywood or chipboard, as these products can contain acidic timber types, tannins, or phenolic adhesives, and do not absorb humidity or allow ventilation. All of these factors increase the risk of corrosion. If these materials are used, exterior quality treated plywood is recommended, and the zinc should be protected by a plastisol backside coating (standard on United Zinc).

Brass and Bronze Copper

Compatibility with Bituminous Felt

Nickel, Monel, Titanium Silver Graphite Gold

Zinc should not come in direct contact with bituminous felt due to the risk of water retention in the felt, which increases the risk of corrosion. If felt is used, the zinc should be protected by a plastisol backside coating that can withstand abrasion due to thermal movement (standard on United Zinc).

Compatibility with Concrete

Platinum

Zinc should not come in direct contact with concrete or reinforced concrete. If concrete is used, the zinc should be properly ventilated and protected by a plastisol backside coating (standard on United Zinc).

PROTECTED END (CATHODIC OR MOST NOBLE)

Run-Off Run-off from non compatible products onto zinc must be avoided. Run off from a copper surface to a zinc surface must be avoided under all circumstances. In general, water should not be allowed to run from a higher potential metal to a lower one.

Product Guide: United Zinc® Material for Architectural Applications

Design Considerations The versatility of Solid Zinc Strip makes it ideal for exterior and interior architectural applications. Zinc’s cool gray patina and natural surface blends beautifully with most building materials and surroundings, both in contemporary and traditional settings and environments.

Finishes yy

Glacier Gray

Glacier Gray TextureMatte™

Onyx Black

The Natural Patina Process and Preweathered Finishes Zinc’s naturally forming cool gray patina provides ageless beauty and life-long protection. The natural patina is a layer of zinc-hydroxy carbonate, which forms when zinc comes in contact with water and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Typically, the patina begins to form in two to five years (except in arid climates where it may evolve over a longer period of time), and maintains a uniform color throughout the zinc’s lifespan. United Zinc’s preweathered Glacier Gray finish immediately provides the designer with the look of a naturally appearing weathered patina. The cool gray tones utilized with the Glacier Gray finishing process most accurately resemble the innate patina appearance that all zinc products will, over time, inherently achieve.

Memory

The TextureMatte™ finish provides a very fine and subtle surface quality, which is achieved through a roller-texturing process on the architectural zinc strip. TextureMatte material exhibits a matte finish luster and the appearance of improved flatness.

Due to the mechanical nature of solid zinc strip, building products that rely upon compression fitting may not maintain tolerances and are not recommended. It is imperative that the profiles selected are mechanically seamed or otherwise engineered to stay in place.

The United Zinc preweathered Onyx Black finish is achieved by a multi-step process which includes chemically reactive processes such as immersion in reactive baths, passivation treatments, and solid pigmentation application. The Onyx Black finish can be expected to retain its uniform dark coloration for decades.

Ventilation United Zinc features a high-performance plastisol back coating to protect the material from interior surface corrosion. While a degree of ventilation is still recommended, IMETCO’s United Zinc panels can typically be installed in the same manner as other metal roofing and wall systems. Commercially available zinc with no backside coating should be avoided, since the probability for corrosion is increased.

Efflorescence is a normal weathering condition that sometimes occurs as a typical and generally temporary stage of the natural patina process, and is not a defect or cause for rejection. While properly designed zinc cladding systems can provide many decades of successful performance in virtually all environments and geographical regions, please consult with the United Zinc technical support team to evaluate each specific application. In some infrequent and specific climatic conditions, other base metal materials may be recommended for certain specific cladding system applications.

Contact your IMETCO representative for more information.

Roof Slope To make sure the zinc is not subjected to ponding water, a minimum slope of 1:12 is recommended. The minimum slope required for specific roofing products varies; refer to the individual product’s design guidelines for more information on minimum roof slopes.

Product Guide: United Zinc® Material for Architectural Applications

Material Handling and Installation Guidelines Forming

Zinc material temperature must be above 50°F before forming or bending (this includes pan-ending, turning down caps, and all other field bending operations). Using an infrared thermometer to measure material temperature is recommended. Coils, sheets and panels can be heated by using electric blankets with “moving pads” over the top of the blankets. However, avoid significant temperature variations when handling zinc, as this can cause condensation build-up that may cause white rust to form. Avoid forming which incorporates severe reverse bending or which subjects the material to alternate compression and tension. The minimum forming bend radius shall be not less than 3T (3 times the sheet thickness) for sheet thicknesses .032” and thinner, and not less than 4T (4 times the sheet thickness) for sheet thicknesses over .032”.

Handling

Zinc sheets, coils, or formed pieces should be handled with care. Dropping, dragging or sliding the material can cause dings or surface abrasions, which could result in cracking or other damage to its appearance and/or structural integrity over time. Even though zinc will form a natural protective barrier, installers should take precautions during installation to make sure that no damage, deformities, or color variations occur. Installers should always wear gloves and long sleeved shirts when handling zinc, since perspiration and oils in the skin will leave marks on its surface. While these marks will heal over time, they will remain visible for a while, affecting aesthetic appearance of the zinc immediately after installation.

Construction Dust & Debris

While run-off from lime stone onto zinc is acceptable, the lime stone and gypsum dust created when cutting these materials can react with zinc when water is present to form a superficial layer of white rust. Any lime stone or gypsum dust must be cleaned from zinc. Use best practices to reduce the amount of dust and prevent white rust.

www.imetco.com | (800) 646-3826

Packaging and Storage

To minimize the potential of white rust forming during transportation or staging, store zinc in dry places, and use packaging that allows water to evaporate quickly. Avoid significant temperature variations or humidity during transport. Zinc products must be stored in a dry, sheltered, well-ventilated area to prevent condensation or water build-up on the material. Control temperature variations to avoid condensation buildup, and cover the ground below to help prevent moisture from rising up and condensing on the panels. Cover the material to prevent standing water, dirt, and construction debris from settling. However, a tarp is not recommended since it will cause condensation build-up. Plywood can be used with spacing between the plywood and the zinc to allow drainage and ventilation. Stack panels horizontally (face-to-face with the panel’s pan in the horizontal plane), or vertically (face-to-face with the panel’s pan in the vertical plane), and brace with adequate support to maintain straight vertical or horizontal stacks. Stacked panels must have a high point at one end to provide a positive drain direction. Maximum horizontal stack height is 10 levels (one level consists of two nested panels). A single row of vertically stacked panels is the maximum allowable height. Protective film should be removed from zinc panels upon completing an elevation, all at the same time in order to minimize color variations due to one section weathering faster than another. However, to protect zinc panels from contamination by other trades, the film can remain on the zinc for up to, but no more than, 60 days following installation. Avoid cutting film with a steel razor or knife. If cutting is required, use the sharp edge of a scrap piece of zinc. Avoid contact with green or wet lumber, water or condensation, contact with or close proximity of damp insulation or other corrosive materials.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Debris such as dirt, leaves, and rubbish should be removed from overlaps and all other surfaces of the sheets or panels to avoid determioration. Use a mild detergent and hot water with a soft rag to clean the zinc. Contact IMETCO for more information.

Caulks and Sealants

Polyurethane and certain other advance polymer caulks and sealants are compatible with zinc. Caulk or sealant must be able to withstand high temperatures for extended periods of

time. Avoid caulks or sealants with an acidic cure, as they will corrode the zinc. Contact your IMETCO representative for more information.

Soldering

When soldering United Zinc, clean the surface with a solvent and apply flux sparingly. Allow time for the flux to react with the metal. A solution of zinc chloride can be used as a flux, which can also be mixed with ammonium chloride. Some proprietary non-acid fluxes are also available. The melting point of a good flux should be below that of the solder. If a non-corrosive flux is desired, as in electronic assemblies, faying surfaces must be pre-coated with solder. Use a 60/40 or 50/50 tin/lead solder. Antimony-bearing solder should not be used because it produces brittle joints. Apply heat and solder so that the joint faying surface is slightly abraded to begin fusing. Typically, neither preheating or pre-tinning are needed. Flame heating is not recommended. Do not heat the iron to redness or allow it to dwell in one spot - this may cause base metal to melt (zinc has a low melting point of 792° F).

Product Guide: United Zinc® Material for Architectural Applications

United Zinc and Sustainability United Zinc is an environmentally safe, environmentally friendly material that is ideal for a wide variety of architectural applications. There are few materials that are as ecologically friendly as zinc. Readily found in the air, water, and soil, zinc is essential to life as we know it. It is a key element in every living thing, promoting cell growth and the production of proteins, which are the very building blocks of life itself.

LEED

Environmental Considerations

United Zinc products contribute to achieving LEED points as follows:

Durability/lifespan

LEED MR 2.1 - Construction Waste Management 1 point

Zinc’s longevity as a building material is not measured in years, but generations. While American usage of zinc roofing is more recent, zinc roofs in Europe have seen service lives of more than a century. It is reasonable to expect that zinc walls can last more than 100 years, and zinc roofs can last up to 100 years in rural areas, 70 years in coastal areas, and 40 years in heavily polluted industrial areas.

All zinc construction waste can easily be separated from other materials for recycling. Zinc has a very high scrap value, and can be recycled indefinitely - not just once like other “recyclable” materials. Architectural zinc can be recovered and reprocessed into new architectural products. United Zinc, for example, contains more than 30% recycled content. Recycled zinc can also be used in galvanization.

During its service life, zinc requires little maintenance, and continues to develop its protective patina which will self-repair any imperfections or scratches.

Recycled content

LEED MR 4.1 - Recycled Content 1 point

More than 30% of United Zinc’s composition is from recycled material.

More than 30% recycled zinc is used for United Zinc. All scrap generated during manufacturing is reclaimed and used as content for additional material.

Recyclability Upon completion of its useful service life, all United Zinc materials are 100% recyclable. Unlike some other recyclable building materials, zinc can be recycled again and again without losing its unique physical and chemical properties, which significantly reduces the need for new raw materials.

LEED MR 5.1 - Regional Materials 1 point United Zinc originates in Clarksville, TN, and is considered a regional material for projects within a 500 mile radius.

Energy demand (production) The extraction and processing of zinc is extremely energy efficient. In fact, the amount of energy required to produce zinc from ore, and to process it into rolled zinc strip, is significantly less than that required by other metals used for building materials, such as aluminum, copper, and stainless steel. Even less energy is required to produce zinc with recycled content, thus United Zinc, with its 30% recycled content, requires less energy to produce than other common zinc materials with less recycled content.

Run-off and Fungal Resistance As a fungistat, United Zinc resists mold, mildew and fungus, but its run-off is clean, and will not harm desirable vegetation like other exotic metals can.

This is a bioclimatic architecture solution that takes the surrounding climatic and natural conditions into account to minimize environmental impact. Its main advantage is energy efficiency. In addition to providing thermal insulation, it reduces heat dissipation in the cold months and heat absorption in the warmer months, resulting in a marked improvement in comfort. These advantages, coupled with a sophisticated and appealing appearance, make the ventilated façade the ideal system for building renovations.

Se trata de una solución de arquitectura bioclimática que tiene en cuenta las condiciones climáticas y naturales del lugar para minimizar el impacto ambiental. Su principal ventaja es la eficiencia energética. Además de proporcionar aislamiento térmico, reduce la dispersión de calor en los meses fríos y la absorción de calor en los meses cálidos, lo que se traduce en una clara mejora del confort. Estos beneficios, unidos a su estética avanzada y atractiva, hacen de la fachada ventilada el sistema idóneo en rehabilitación de edificios. 9

Resistance __Resistencia The European Standard EN 438-6:2005 specifies that exterior-grade compact laminates such as Facade should provide specific resistance to weather conditions according to the Resistance to Artificial Weathering Test. After 3,000 hours of exposure, the material should have a rating variation of ≥ 4 in appearance and a rating of ≥ 3 in contrast. Facade attains theses values following exposure of up to 4 times those required by the standard. __La norma europea EN 438-6:2005 especifica que los revestimientos exteriores compactos como Facade deben ofrecer una determinada resistencia a la intemperie según el Ensayo de Resistencia a la Intemperie Artificial. Tras 3.000 horas, el material tiene que tener una variación de grado ≥ 4 en aspecto y grado ≥3 en contraste. Facade consigue estos valores tras una exposición de hasta 4 veces lo requerido por la norma.

Permeability __Permeabilidad Moving air diffuses water vapour from the inside out and facilitates the ‘breathing’ of the façade, preventing condensation from forming behind the panels. __El aire en movimiento difunde el vapor de agua desde el interior al exterior y facilita la transpiración de la fachada, lo que evita las condensaciones detrás de los paneles.

Water protection __Protección frente al agua

Thermal insulation __Aislamiento térmico

Moving air provides protection from the elements, because it assists in preventing rain water from infiltrating the building structure. __El aire en movimiento proporciona una mayor protección a la intemperie, porque impide la infiltración de agua de lluvia en la estructura del edificio.

The load-bearing structure is insulated from the exterior structure, eliminating thermal bridges. In this manner, temperature fluctuations are reduced in the interior, leading to energy savings. __Aísla la estructura portante de la estructura exterior, eliminando los puentes térmicos. De esta forma se reducen las fluctuaciones de temperatura en el cerramiento interior, con el consiguiente ahorro energético.

Solar protection __Protección solar Thermal comfort is improved inside the building by preventing overheating in the summer, as it facilitates ‘breathing’ of the façade. This assists by reducing the amount of thermal energy that reaches the inside of the building. The internal structure is protected from direct radiation and from the elements. __Mejora el confort térmico interior del edifico, evitando el sobrecalentamiento en verano, porque facilita la transpiración de la fachada y se reduce la cantidad de energía térmica que llega al interior del edificio. Protege la estructura interna de las radiaciones directas y de las inclemencias meteorológicas.

Acoustic protection __Protección acústica Since this is a compound system with several layers, noise absorption is created. __Al ser un sistema compuesto con varios estratos, genera una mayor absorción del ruido.

Due to the fact that wood is a natural product, each veneer may be considered as unique. Colour and structure differences are considered as normal. Singularities such as knots and resin inclusions are not considered as defects, but as a part of the décor. There are differences in light fastness performances depending on the wood species and the source of the wood.

1.2. Transport __Transporte

1.3. Storage __Almacenamiento

The panels must be correctly strapped down for transport, bearing in mind that they slide over each other easily and may become damaged. They must always be transported horizontally. The panels must never be transported loose or with broken straps. For short trips, inside workshops or at the construction site, fasten the panels using straps whilst protecting the edges in contact with the straps with cardboard protectors. Avoid the presence of rough objects or sharp edges between panels that may damage or scratch their surface. When moving panels on the same stack, lift them so that they do not scrape against each other. __Para el transporte, los tableros deberán estar correctamente flejados, teniendo en cuenta que éstos se deslizan con facilidad unos sobre otros y podrían deteriorarse. Siempre se deberán transportar horizontalmente. Los tableros nunca se transportarán sueltos o con alguno de sus flejes roto. Para pequeños recorridos en talleres o en obras, los tableros se sujetarán con correas y se protegerán las aristas en contacto con las correas con cantoneras de cartón. Evitar el contacto con objetos de aristas rugosas o cortantes que puedan dañar o rayarlos. En el momento de tener que mover los tableros que se encuentren en un mismo palet, se levantarán suavemente de forma que no se arrastren unos sobre otros, puesto que podrían sufrir rozaduras en la superficie.

Horizontal storage __Almacenamiento horizontal Panels must be stored in a horizontal position, never in a vertical or inclined position. It is essential to keep them from resting on objects or debris that prevent the panels from being completely horizontal. The distance between supports must be ≤800mm __ El almacenamiento de tableros se realizará en posición horizontal, nunca en posición vertical o inclinada, evitando que éstos se apoyen en objetos o residuos que provoquen la falta de horizontalidad. La distancia entre los apoyos debe ser ≤800 mm.

Optimal condition storage __Almacenamiento en condiciones óptimas To prevent deformation, store in a clean, dry place, protected from rain and sun. Recommended storage conditions include a Temperature of 10-25ºC and a Relative Humidity of 30-70%. Climatic and humidity differences on the two panel surfaces should be avoided. Storage time should never exceed five months from the date indicated on the delivery invoice. __Para evitar deformaciones, se almacenarán en un lugar limpio y seco, protegidos de la lluvia y el sol. Las condiciones de almacenamiento recomendadas son 10-25ºC de Temperatura y 30-70% de Humedad Relativa. Deben evitarse las diferencias climáticas en las dos superficies de las placas. El tiempo de almacenamiento nunca será superior a cinco meses desde la fecha que aparece en el albarán.

Once the original packaging has been opened, we recommend that you only remove the Facade panels to be installed immediately. The remaining panels must be stored in conditions identical to those of the original packaging. __Una vez abierto el embalaje original se recomienda extraer únicamente aquellos tableros Facade que vayan a ser instalados inmediatamente. El resto de paneles deberá continuar almacenado en las mismas condiciones del embalaje original.

Removing the protective film __Retirar el film de protección Panels for external use are covered with a protective film on their exposed side, which must be removed immediately after installing the panel, as prolonged exposure to the elements will cause the adhesive on the film to soil the panel. __Los tableros de exteriores van provistos de un film de protección de su cara vista, que deberá ser retirado inmediatamente después de instalar el panel, ya que una prolongada exposición al sol provoca que el adhesivo de fijación del film ensucie el tablero.

1.4. Handling __Manipulación

Standard requirements should be kept in mind when handling Facade panels, especially with regards to: __Se deberán tener en cuenta los requerimientos habituales de seguridad durante la manipulación de tableros Facade, especialmente en relación con:

Flat, trapezoidal tooth profiles are the most efficient. The number of teeth should be between 24 and 60, depending on the diameter. The blade teeth should always enter on the panel’s good face. Table saws generally have the good face pointing up, as the blade rotates with the blade cutting on the ‘downstroke’. Hand held circular saws generally cut on the ‘upstroke’, therefore the panel should face down.

• Dust removal. __La extracción de polvo. • Dust collection. __La recolección de polvo. • Fire precautions, etc. __Precauciones ante incendios, etc. Due to the possible presence of sharp edges, protective gloves should always be worn when handling Facade panels. Contact with dust from HPLs does not normally present a problem, although some people may be sensitive or even allergic to it. __Debido a la posible existencia de bordes afilados, se deben usar siempre guantes protectores al manipular los tableros Facade. El contacto con el polvo de los HPL no representa problemas habitualmente, aunque algunas personas pueden ser sensibles e incluso alérgicas al mismo.

– Los paneles Parklex pueden ser mecanizados con las máquinas convencionales de carpintería, equipadas con metal duro. Debido a la alta densidad de Facade, las velocidades de corte deberán ser inferiores a las aplicadas a la madera; los paneles Facade se pueden cortar en mesa de sierra circular estable o con sierra circular manual. Las herramientas de las mesas estables, si las series a cortar son elevadas, deberían ser de diamante, pero en caso contrario o si las máquinas a utilizar son manuales, las herramientas a utilizar serán de placas de metal duro o “Widia” (carbono tungsteno) con dureza K-05 y K-01.

1-2 cm

Board movement Avance tablero

Las herramientas de acero rápido o con alto contenido de cobalto se pueden utilizar en el mecanizado, aunque se obtienen rendimientos de afilado menores.

Good face __cara buena

Los discos de sierra circular serán de características similares a los utilizados para mecanizar paneles de aglomerado y melamina. Sus diámetros pueden ser de 250 a 300 mm en las circulares de mesa y de 150 a 190 mm para las manuales. El perfil de diente más eficaz es el trapecio plano. El número de dientes dependerá del diámetro y puede ir de 24 a 60. Parklex panels may be machined using conventional commercial grade carpentry machines equipped with hard metal accessories. Due to the high density of Facade, cutting speeds must be slower than those used with wood: Facade panels may be cut with stationary circular table saws or with handheld circular saws.

La sierra siempre debe atacar la cara buena del tablero. Según el sentido de giro de la herramienta, se coloca el panel cara buena arriba o cara buena abajo.

1.4.2. Drilling __Taladrado

If many panels are to be cut, stationary table saws must be equipped with diamond-tipped accessories. If not, or if manual machines are being used, the accessories must be made from hard metal plates or “Widia” (tungsten carbon), with a hardness of K-05 and K-01.

The panels must be drilled using hard metal or “Widia” tools. Supporting sheets (martyr boards) must be used under the panel in order to drill a clean hole, without ‘breakout’. __El taladrado se debe realizar con herramientas de metal duro o “Widia”. Se deben emplear placas de soporte por debajo del tablero (tableros mártires) para conseguir un agujero limpio.

Accessories made from high-speed steel or that contain a high level of cobalt may be used, although lower sharpening performance will be obtained. Circular saw blades must have characteristics similar to those used to machine high pressure laminate or melamine panels. Blade diameters must be between 250 and 300mm for circular table saws and between 150 and 190mm for handheld saws.

1.5. Cleaning and maintenance __Limpieza y mantenimiento 1.4.3. Machining __Mecanizado

1.5.1. Cleaning __Limpieza

Water jet cut: This system is compatible with Facade panels, although it is advisable to carry out a preliminary test in order to adjust the parameters. __Corte por chorro de agua: Este sistema es compatible con los paneles Facade, aunque es aconsejable realizar una prueba de previa para ajustar los parámetros.

The non-stick composition of the surface of Facade panels will allow most stains to be removed easily, with water and mild household detergents. __La composición química antiadherente de la superficie de los tableros Facade hace que la mayor parte las manchas se eliminen fácilmente con agua y detergentes domésticos.

Laser cut: This system is not recommended for use with Facade panels given that it blackens and burns the wood veneer. __Corte por láser: No se recomienda utilizar este sistema con los paneles Facade, ya que ennegrece y quema la chapa de madera.

However, if the surface is dirty or there are traces of the adhesive of the protective film, this can be cleaned with warm water mixed with liquid detergent, using a soft and clean cloth but never rubbing the surface when dry. Never use abrasive detergents. __No obstante, si la superficie se ensucia o quedan residuos del adhesivo del film protector, ésta puede ser limpiada con agua tibia mezclada con detergente líquido, utilizando un paño suave y nunca frotando la superficie en seco. Nunca se deben utilizar detergentes abrasivos. In case of stubborn stains, the surface of the panel can be cleaned with a soft cloth (not dyed), dampened with universal solvent (petroleum naphtha or white spirit). Never use cloths or sponges with abrasive cleaning or sanding agents, as they may damage the surface of the panel. __En caso de suciedad más persistente, la superficie del tablero puede limpiarse con un paño suave (no teñido) de tela humedecido con disolvente universal (nafta de petróleo o White Spirit). Nunca deben utilizarse trapos o esponjas con agentes abrasivos de limpieza o lijado, ya que pueden dañar la superficie del producto. Nor harsh solvents as Acetone, Ethyl Acetate, MEK, nail polish remover, etc... should be used. They can cause permanent damage by dissolving the surface protection film partially, totally or by causing cracks, which may not be obvious at first glance. These products should also not be used at the rear side of the boards. __Tampoco deben ser utilizados solventes agresivos como Acetona, Acetato de Etilo, MEC, quitaesmaltes, etc. Éstos pueden causar daños permanentes disolviendo el film superficial de protección de forma parcial, completa o en forma de grietas, que pueden no ser evidentes a primera vista. Estos productos tampoco deben ser utilizados en la contracara de los tableros. The surface of the panel must be dried using an absorbent, fluff-free cloth. __El secado de la superficie del producto se debe realizar con un paño absorbente, sin pelusa. It is recommended to always test clean a small part of the affected area, and once the effectiveness of the procedure has been verified, proceed with the rest of the surface. __Se recomienda hacer siempre una prueba de limpieza en una pequeña parte de la zona afectada y, sólo después de verificar la eficacia del procedimiento, proceder con el resto de la superficie.

debe realizarse respetando siempre las correspondientes reglas de seguridad e higiene.

Cleaning graffiti __Limpieza de grafitis The specially treated non-stick surface of Facade will prevent aerosol paints from permanently adhering to the surface of the panel.. However, removal may require products specifically designed for removing this type of paint. A final cleaning with soapy water and a full rinse with clean water are recommended. __La superficie químicamente antiadherente de Facade impide que las pinturas en aerosol queden fijadas permanentemente. No obstante, su limpieza puede requerir de productos específicos para este tipo de pinturas. Se recomienda una limpieza final con agua jabonosa y un aclarado final con agua limpia.

1.6.1. Waste management information __Información a los gestores de residuos The specifications that rule the production and management of waste generated in construction and demolition must be fulfilled, as well as any current local regulation. __Se seguirán las especificaciones que regulan la producción y gestión de los residuos de construcción y demolición, así como las reglamentaciones locales que sean de aplicación.

We have specific Resistance to Graffiti tests available for stains made with the following materials: __Le informamos que disponemos de ensayos específicos de Resistencia a la pintura grafiti para marcas realizadas con los siguientes materiales:

The re-use of the Facade panels in other applications with different requirements is encouraged. __Se favorecerá la reutilización del panel Facade en otras aplicaciones con diferentes requisitos. It is possible the assessment of the waste by industrial incineration. __También es posible su valorización en incineradoras de uso industrial.

• Solvent-based: permanent blue marker and red spray paint. __Rotulador azul permanente y spray rojo, con base solvente. • Black wax. __Cera negra. • Water-based black marker. __Rotulador negro en base agua. Never use abrasive cleaning powders or pastes, which will scratch the surface. __Nunca utilizar polvos o pastas de limpieza. If you would like to see the results of these tests, please request them from the Parklex sales network. __Si desea los resultados de estos ensayos, solicítelos a la red comercial de Parklex.

1.5.2. Maintenance __Mantenimiento Simple cleaning of Facade panels is the only maintenance needed. The surface does not require any specific preventative treatment designed for wood. __La limpieza de los tableros Facade es el único mantenimiento necesario. La superficie no necesita ningún otro tratamiento preventivo para la madera.

1.5.3. Repair __Reparación There is currently no prescribed method for repairing Facade panels. In case of severe damage, affected panels must be replaced with new. __No se ha prescrito ningún método de reparación de los paneles Facade. Los paneles dañados deberán ser reemplazados por otros nuevos.

2. General Instructions __Instrucciones Generales

2.1. Humidity and temperature __Humedad y temperatura Ventilated installation __Instalación ventilada For appropriate Facade panel behaviour, it is essential to maintain compensation of the temperature and humidity conditions on both panel faces, by means of an installation that allows air to circulate behind them. __Para un adecuado comportamiento de los tableros Facade, es indispensable mantener compensadas las condiciones de temperatura y humedad en ambas caras del panel mediante una instalación que permita la circulación de aire por su parte trasera.

Facade is a high-quality construction product installed as a vertical decorative covering on the façade. __Facade es un producto de alta calidad para la construcción que se usa como revestimiento decorativo de fachada. For correct panel installation it is important to follow the general installation instructions described below. This ensures optimal performance over time, which prevents premature deterioration and ensures its perfect performance. __Para una perfecta instalación de los paneles es importante seguir las instrucciones generales de instalación que se describen a continuación. De esta manera se asegura un rendimiento óptimo y libre de problemas durante mucho tiempo, lo que evita un deterioro prematuro y garantiza una estética perfecta.

Panel movement __Movimiento de los paneles It must be kept in mind that the Facade panels will be exposed to changing seasons over the years, and that they are composed of natural wood. Given that wood is a living material which suffers dimensional variations due to changes in humidity and temperature, it is important that the fixings allow the panels to move and that they do not block their free expansion and contraction. __Hay que tener en cuenta que los paneles Facade van a estar expuestos a los cambios estacionales a lo largo de los años, y que están compuestos por madera natural. Puesto que la madera es un material vivo que sufre variaciones dimensionales debido a cambios de humedad y temperatura, es importante que las fijaciones permitan el movimiento de los paneles y no bloqueen su libre expansión y contracción.

*In the event that a Technical Document exists that applies to a specific installation system, such as the Avis Technique (CSTB) in France, the British Board of Agremènt (BBA) and Centre for Window and Cladding Technology (CWCT) in the United Kingdom, the Zulassung (DIBt) in Germany or the DITplus (IETCC) in Spain, it shall take precedence over the general recommendations described here. In addition, building insurers may also have there own applicable standards. __*En caso de existencia de un Documento Técnico aplicable para un sistema de instalación concreto, como por ejemplo Avis Technique (CSTB) en Francia, British Board of Agremènt (BBA) en Reino Unido, Zulassung (DIBt) en Alemania y DITplus (IETCC) en España, prevalecerá éste frente a las recomendaciones generales aquí descritas.

2.2. Expansion joints __Juntas de dilatación

2.3. Choosing panel thickness __Elección del espesor del panel

It is necessary to leave expansion joints around the perimeter of all panels and where they meet with other materials to ensure they can absorb any expansion movements. The thickness of these joints depends on the panel dimensions and the façade design. As an example, for panels measuring 2.44 x 1.22m, these joints must be at least 6mm. It is recommended not to seal the joints with flexible materials, as this may lead to an accumulation of dirt around the edges of the panels. __Es necesario dejar juntas perimetrales de dilatación entre paneles y en los encuentros de éstos con otros paramentos, de forma que absorban los movimientos de dilatación. El espesor de estas juntas dependerá de las dimensiones de los paneles y del diseño de la fachada. Como valor orientativo y para paneles de 2,44 x 1,22 m, estas juntas serán de mínimo 6 mm. Se aconseja no sellar las juntas con masilla, ya que pueden conducir a una acumulación de suciedad en los bordes de los paneles.

The required panel thickness is selected according to the element to be covered (walls, ceilings or façades). The thickness of a panel influences the distance between the supporting profiles; the greater the thickness, in general the greater the possible distance between the profiles. This may vary, depending on the specific type of installation. The ideal thickness for external facades is 8 or 10mm. Thickness of 6mm* is not recommended, except in very special cases. __El espesor del panel se elige en función del paramento a revestir (paredes, techos o fachadas). El espesor del panel influye en la distancia entre los rastreles de apoyo; a mayor espesor, mayor la distancia entre rastreles, aunque puede variar en función del tipo de instalación. El espesor más idóneo para el revestimiento de exteriores es 8 y 10 mm. No es recomendable el espesor de 6 mm*, excepto para casos singulares. * If you are considering the use of this thickness, it is essential to consult the technical department at Parklex. __* En caso de querer utilizar este espesor, consultar con el departamento técnico de Parklex.

2.4. Three support points __Tres puntos de apoyo

2.5. Counter-sunk head screws not allowed __No permitidos tornillos de cabeza avellanada

Facade panels must be fixed to at least three points* of structural support. The distances between support points depend on the mounting type and the thickness of the panel. The instructions regarding distances that come with the various, commercially available fixing systems may be followed, as long as there are at least three points of support in each direction. __Los paneles Facade se tienen que apoyar como mínimo en tres puntos*. Las distancias entre puntos de apoyo dependen del tipo de fijación y del espesor del material. Se pueden seguir las instrucciones respecto a distancias que aparecen en los distintos sistemas de fijación a lo largo del documento, siempre que haya tres puntos de apoyo como mínimo en cada sentido.

Facade panel installation using counter-sunk head screws is not allowed as they do not enable free panel movement. __No está permitida la instalación de tableros Facade con tornillos de cabeza avellanada, dado que éstos no hacen posible el libre movimiento de los paneles.

3. Installation system on ventilated faรงade __Sistema de instalaciรณn en fachada ventilada

3.1. Ventilated chamber __Cámara ventilada Facade panels must be installed as a ventilated façade; therefore, they must be separated from the wall face by profiles, which are installed vertically, forming a chamber with a free ventilated space of ≥30mm, except in those countries with specific technical documents –e.g. in the UK, ≥50mm–. In the event that some type of insulation will be installed, a double-profile structure or a single-profile structure with adjustable supporting elements must be installed, ensuring that the chamber is maintained. To permit air circulation in the ventilated chamber, the air intake and output must be correctly proportioned. __Los tableros que se instalen a modo de fachada ventilada tienen que ir separados del paramento mediante rastreles, colocados en posición vertical, formando una cámara de ≥30 mm, excepto en los países con documentación técnica específica –por ejemplo, en Reino Unido, ≥50 mm–. En el caso de que esté prevista la colocación de algún tipo de aislamiento, se instalará un doble rastrelado, o un rastrelado sencillo con pies de apoyo regulables, que nos aseguren la cámara. Para permitir la circulación de aire en la cámara ventilada, se debe dimensionar adecuadamente la entrada y la salida del aire.

For the installation of Facade panels in ventilated façade mode, the panels are installed on vertical profiles, creating an interrupted flow of air in the rear part of the panel. __Para la instalación de los paneles Facade a modo de fachada ventilada, los paneles se colocan sobre rastreles verticales, creando un flujo ininterrumpido de aire en la parte trasera del tablero.

Head ventilation __Ventilación en la coronación The ventilation at the head of the chamber must be ≥20mm. This ventilation space must be left whenever there is an interruption in the face of the Facade panels. __La ventilación en la coronación debe ser ≥20 mm. Esta ventilación debe hacerse siempre que haya una interrupción del paño de paneles Facade.

Subdividing the chamber __Sectorización de la cámara It is recommended to divide the ventilation chamber vertically to prevent any possible spread of flames, in the event of a fire. To do this, create ventilated compartments approximately every 6m. To prevent the spread of fire, fireproof insulating materials or continuous horizontal firewalls (made from stainless steel or intumescent materials, for example) may be used. __Es conveniente interrumpir la cámara de ventilación en sentido vertical para prevenir una posible propagación del fuego en caso de incendio. Para ello, se deben realizar compartimentos ventilados cada 6 m aproximadamente. Para interrumpir el desplazamiento del fuego, se pueden usar materiales de aislamiento incombustibles o cortafuegos horizontales continuos (de acero inoxidable, por ejemplo).

Base ventilation __Ventilación en el arranque The ventilation at the base of the chamber must be ≥20mm. This ventilation space must be left whenever there is a new base i.e. if the Facade panels are interrupted by windows or other elements. __La ventilación en el arranque debe ser ≥20 mm. Esta ventilación debe hacerse siempre que haya un arranque nuevo, es decir, si la fachada de paneles Facade se interrumpe por ventanas u otros elementos.

Acoustic protection Protección acústica Since this is a compound system with several layers, noise absorption is created. __Al ser un sistema compuesto con varios estratos, genera una mayor absorción del ruido.

3.2. Substructure __Subestructura Vertical alignment __Aplomado vertical

To facilitate air circulation behind the panels, a substructure of vertical profiles must be installed. The substructure must be designed according to the habitual wind load in the area and in such a way that it meets all static requirements. Account must also be taken of the façade inclination, the fastening system chosen, and the thickness and dimensions of the Facade panel being installed in order to establish the parameters applied. In addition, it must be perfectly protected against corrosion and rotting, regardless of the material or system used. The minimum support width of the profile for intermediate points is 60mm, and 80mm for the points where two panels meet. __Para facilitar la circulación del aire detrás de los paneles, se debe colocar una subestructura de rastreles verticales. La subestructura debe estar dimensionada según la carga del viento habitual de la zona y de tal forma que cumpla todos los requerimientos estáticos. Se tendrán en cuenta, asimismo, el estado de desplome de la fachada, el sistema de fijación elegido, y el espesor y dimensiones del panel Facade a instalar para determinar los parámetros a aplicar. Además, debe estar protegida de forma óptima contra la corrosión o la putrefacción, independientemente del material o el sistema utilizados. El ancho mínimo de apoyo del rastrel para puntos intermedios será de 60 mm, y de 80 mm para puntos donde se junten dos paneles.

It is not unusual for façades to have surface irregularities. In these cases, the use of profiles with brackets that allow for adjustment of the vertical alignment is recommended. The brackets are fixed to the profile with stainless steel self-tapping screws. __Es habitual que las fachadas presenten irregularidades en su superficie. En estos casos, se recomienda utilizar perfiles con pies reguladores de aplomado, que se fijan al rastrel mediante tornillos autorroscantes de acero inoxidable.

Wood substructure __Subestructura de madera If the substructure is built from timber battens, they must be suitably treated. It is recommended to install PVC joints or closed-cell polyethylene foam over the exposed surfaces, as these protect, improve and extend their service life. This type of substructure may be used in dry areas, generally without frequent rainfall. __Si la subestructura se realiza con rastreles de madera, éstos estarán tratados. Se recomienda que sobre las superficies de apoyo de los paneles se coloquen juntas de PVC o de espuma de polietileno de celda cerrada, ya que éstos protegen, mejoran y alargan la vida de los mismos. Este tipo de subestructura se puede utilizar en zonas secas o poco lluviosas.

A. Line of reference __Línea de referencia B. Bracket __Pie regulador de aplomado C. Irregular wall face __Cara de la pared irregular

Metal substructure __Subestructura metálica If located in rainy or humid locations, it is preferable to use metal vertical profiles made from galvanized steel or aluminum. In areas that suffer obvious effects from the sea, stainless steel profiles must be used, or those made from an appropriate anodized aluminum. __Si nos encontramos en zonas lluviosas y húmedas, podemos utilizar rastreles metálicos de acero galvanizado o de aluminio. En las zonas en las que los efectos del mar son más patentes, se utilizarán perfiles de acero inoxidable o de aluminio con un tratamiento anodizado adecuado.

Drilling __Perforado de los agujeros The Facade panels undergo dimensional variations due to temperature and humidity. These dimensional and structural variations must be taken into account when drilling holes. If using screws, the diameter of the hole must be 2-3mm larger than the diameter of the screw shank, except at one point per panel, where the diameters will be equal (fixed point). This fixed point must be as close as possible to the center of the panel. If using rivets, the diameter of the hole must be 3.5mm larger than the diameter of the rivet shank, except at one point per panel, where the diameters will be equal (fixed point). As in the case of screws, the fixed point must be as close as possible to the center of the panel. Countersunk screws must never be used, as they prevent panel movement due to dimensional variations. __Los paneles Facade sufren variaciones dimensionales debido a la temperatura y a la humedad. En el perforado de los agujeros se deben tener en cuenta estas variaciones dimensionales y de estructura. En el caso de usar tornillo, el diámetro de perforado debe ser 2-3 mm superior al diámetro del alma del tornillo, excepto en un punto por panel donde los diámetros deberán ser iguales (punto fijo). Este punto fijo deberá estar lo más cerca posible del centro del panel. En el caso de usar remache, el diámetro de perforado debe ser 3,5 mm superior al diámetro del alma del remache, excepto en un punto por panel donde los diámetros deberán ser iguales (punto fijo). Igual que en el caso del tornillo, el punto fijo deberá estar lo más cerca posible del centro del panel.

3.3.3. Hidden fixing with bracket hanging system __Fijación oculta con sistema de cuelgue

Installation with back fixed brackets and horizontal carrier rails __Fijación de las uñas de cuelgue

The bracket hanging system introduces the fixing bracket as the hidden mounting mechanical element. This system can only be used with panels 10 and 12mm thick. __El sistema de cuelgue introduce la uña de cuelgue como elemento mecánico de fijación oculta. Este sistema sólo puede usarse con tableros de 10 y 12 mm de espesor.

Panel fixing brackets are screwed to the rear of the panel using stainless steel milling screws (Ø6 and 11.5mm in length). These panel fixing brackets are machined with an M8 metric hole at the top, which is used to adjust the height (using a bolt) or to lock them in place. To fasten the milling screws to the panel, drill a hole 5mm in diameter, slightly smaller than that of the screw, so that it will cut its own thread as it is screwed in place. This hole must be deeper than the insertion length of the screw to permit accumulation of the shaving created when carving. However, a margin of at least 2mm must be left with respect to the exposed side of the panel. __En el panel se fijan uñas de cuelgue atornilladas en la parte posterior del tablero mediante tornillos fresadores en acero inoxidable (Ø6 y 11,5 mm de longitud). Estas uñas tienen un agujero mecanizado de métrica M8 en la parte superior, que sirve para la regulación de altura (usando un bulón) o para bloqueo. Para atornillar el tornillo fresador al panel, se debe realizar previamente un agujero de Ø5mm, ligeramente inferior al diámetro del tornillo, con el fin de que éste talle la rosca a medida que se atornilla. Este agujero deberá tener más profundidad que el largo de inserción del tornillo para permitir la acumulación de la viruta que se crea al tallar. Sin embargo, se deberán dejar como mínimo 2 mm de margen respecto a la cara vista del tablero.

Once the panels have been aligned in their final position with the help of the height adjustment screw, a stainless steel selftapping screw fixes the bracket to the horizontal rail to prevent it from moving sideways along said rail. The central bracket of the top line of the panel must be screwed in place, as shown in the drawing. __Una vez alineados los tableros en posición definitiva con la ayuda del tornillo regulador de altura, un tornillo autorroscante de acero inoxidable fija la uña a la guía horizontal para evitar el desplazamiento lateral de las uñas a través de la guía horizontal.

The correct screw choice will depend on the type of profile. For metal profiles, use screw DIN 7504N (zinc-plated). For wooden profiles, use 7505N (zinc-plated). __La elección del tornillo idóneo dependerá del tipo de rastrel. Para rastrel de metal, utilizar tornillo DIN 7504N (Zincado). Para rastrel de madera, utilizar 7505N (Zincado). It is advisable to place a stud behind the anchoring pieces in the first row to act as a stop. __Se recomienda introducir un taco de 8mm en la parte trasera de las piezas de amarre de la primera hilera para hacer de tope.

Once the first row of anchoring pieces has been installed, add the first row of machined slats. The groove in the slats fits into the clamp. __Una vez colocada la primera hilera de piezas de amarre, se introduce la primera hilera de lama mecanizada, cuya ranura encaja con la pieza de amarre.

The panels are joined with the same clamp, since thanks to its surface it can support two panels, leaving the necessary joint between them. __La unión de tableros se resuelve con la misma pieza de amarre, ya que su superficie permite apoyar dos tableros y dejar la junta necesaria entre ellos.

To finish off, fix the last row of slats in place using Parklex lacquered screws. See section 3.3.1.

Para la fijación de estos perfiles al muro, Parklex suministra pies reguladores de aplomado que permitirán absorber las irregularidades de la fachada.

The profiles with trim are perforated every 20 mm, making it possible to adjust the louvre design to the needs of each project. __Los perfiles con paso están perforados cada 20 mm*, permitiendo ajustar el diseño de las celosías a las necesidades de cada proyecto.

The direction of the substructure installation (vertical or horizontal) will determine the kind of louvre to be installed.

4.1.3. Supporting clip installation __Instalación del clip soporte

Fixing the clip __Fijación del clip The clips are fixed to the rear of the panel using stainless steel milling screws (Ø6 and 9.5 mm in length). To do this, first of all drill a hole 5 mm in diameter, slightly smaller than that of the screw, so that it will cut its own thread as it is screwed in place. This hole must be deeper than the insertion length of the screw to permit accumulation of the shaving created when carving. However, a margin of at least 2 mm must be left with respect to the exposed side of the panel. __Los clips se fijan en la parte posterior del tablero mediante tornillos fresadores en acero inoxidable (Ø6 y 9,5 mm de longitud). Para ello, se debe realizar previamente un agujero de Ø5mm, ligeramente inferior al diámetro del tornillo, con el fin de que éste talle la rosca a medida que se atornilla. Este agujero deberá tener más profundidad que el largo de inserción del tornillo para permitir la acumulación de la viruta que se crea al tallar. Sin embargo, se deberán dejar como mínimo 2 mm de margen respecto a la cara vista del tablero.

Clip selection __Elección del clip Parklex supplies fixed and floating clips. All clips screwed to the rear part of the Facade slats must be floating, except for one per slat, which must be fixed. This fixed point must be as close as possible to the center of the slat. __Parklex suministra clips fijos y flotantes. Todos los clips atornillados en la parte posterior de las lamas Facade han de ser flotantes, excepto uno por lama que tiene que ser fijo. Este punto fijo deberá estar lo más cerca posible del centro de la lama.

5.1. Fixing the dropped ceiling __Fijación del falso techo 5.1.1. Screw or rivet fixing __Fijación con tornillo o remache The Facade panels can be installed on dropped ceilings. __Los tableros Facade permiten su instalación en falsos techos.

To install Facade panels in dropped ceiling mode with exposed fixings, you must pay attention to the instructions described in section 3.3.1. Exposed screw or rivet fixing (p. 27). This fixing system can only be used with 8 and 10 mm panels. __Para la instalación de tableros Facade a modo de falso techo con fijación vista, es necesario tener en consideración las instrucciones descritas en el apartado 3.3.1. Fijación vista con tornillo o remache (p. 27) Este sistema de fijación se puede usar sólo con tableros de 8 y 10 mm.

For safety purposes, Parklex recommends exposed screw or rivet fixing for dropped ceiling installations. __Por motivos de seguridad, Parklex recomienda la fijación vista mediante tornillo o remache para la instalación de falsos techos. *In the event of wanting to install the dropped ceiling with a hidden fixing system, consult the Parklex technical department. __*En caso de querer instalar el falso techo con un sistema de fijación oculta, consultar al departamento técnico de Parklex.

6. Installation system in curves __Sistema de instalaciรณn en curvas

6.1. Panel curving __Curvado de paneles The Facade panels are flat and rigid; however, they can be curved to achieve certain curvature radii. The curvature radius will depend on the thickness of the material. The thinner the material, the tighter the curves, in other words, the smaller the radius. __Los paneles Facade son paneles planos y rígidos, sin embargo, se pueden curvar hasta conseguir ciertos radios de curvatura. El radio de curvatura dependerá del espesor del material; a menor espesor, se pueden conseguir curvas más cerradas, es decir, de menor radio.

Thanks to the flexibility of wood fibers, we can adapt the Facade panels to certain curvature radii, whether they are concave or convex. __Gracias a la flexibilidad de las fibras de la madera, podemos adaptar los paneles Facade a ciertos radios de curvatura, ya sean estos cóncavos o convexos.

As seen in the table, when installing the panels on a curved structure, the distance between vertical profiles must be reduced. The distance between the fixing point to the edge must also be decreased. This distance must be between 20 and 25mm. Contact Parklex Technical Department for advice. This table is valid only for curving in the grain direction, and for standard 2440 x 1220 mm panels. Panels may only be curved in the grain direction and only an exposed mechanical system using screws or rivets may be used for installation. __Tal y como se puede ver en la tabla, al instalar los paneles en una estructura curvada, se debe reducir la distancia entre rastreles. La distancia entre centro de fijación y el canto también se debe reducir. Esta distancia debe estar entre 20 y 25 mm. Esta tabla es válida únicamente para un panel estándar de 2440x1220 mm. El curvado del panel se debe realizar en el sentido de la veta y el único sistema de fijación permitido es la fijación mecánica vista mediante tornillos o remaches.

Parklex offers two different solutions for projects requiring the installation of Facade as curved façade cladding; by means of standard panels if the intention is to achieve radii greater than 3 m, or by means of pre-curved panels if the intention is to achieve smaller radii. __Parklex ofrece dos soluciones distintas para proyectos que requieran instalar Facade a modo de recubrimiento de fachada curvo; mediante paneles estándar si lo que se quiere es alcanzar radios superiores a 3m, o mediante paneles pre-curvados si se quieren alcanzar radios más pequeños. *Each radius requires a specific panel thickness. In the event of wanting to use thicknesses other than those detailed below, consult the Parklex technical department. __*Cada radio requiere un espesor de tablero concreto. En caso de querer usar espesores diferentes a los que se detallan a continuación, consultar al departamento técnico de Parklex.

6.3. Installation of pre-curved panels __Instalación de los paneles pre-curvados

Parklex has developed pre-curved Facade panels supplied curved in different radii depending on the project requirements. The pre-curved Facade panels are supplied in a thickness of 6 mm and their dimensions vary according to the chosen grain direction. The available radii are 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 m and they can be adapted to suit specific curvatures on site at a later date. __Parklex ha desarrollado los paneles pre-curvados Facade, que se suministran curvados a diferentes radios en función de las necesidades del proyecto. Los paneles pre-curvados Facade se suministran en un espesor de 6 mm y sus dimensiones varian en función de la dirección de veta escogida. Siendo los radios disponibles de 0,5, 1, 2 y 4 m, pueden ser posteriormente adaptados en obra a requisitos de curvatura específicos.
