VENTILATED
WALL
|
DESCRIPTION
|
External cladding with the ventilated
wall system comprises several elements:
° thermal insulation on the wall exterior
° a substructure to support the cladding
° an
outer face protecting
the building against atmospheric agents, separated from the insulation
by an air gap.
|
BASIC
PRINCIPLES
|
In terms of thermal protection and the
mechanism of vapour diffusion, the performance of the ventilated wall
system is exceptional and totally guaranteed provided that:
° the thermal resistance of the various
layers of the facade increases from the inside of the building outwards
° la resistenza alla diffusione del
vapore cala invece dall'interno
verso l'esterno.the resistance to vapour diffusion, on the contrary,
decreases from the inside outwards.
|
BENEFITS
OF THE VENTILATED WALL
|
° The ventilated facade reduces dampness
on walls of new or renovated buildings
° It prevents the formation of thermal
bridges
° It
allows a comfortable climate indoors, preventing heat escaping in the
winter and entering in the summer.
° It
reduces energy consumption.
° It improves sound absorpion in new and
renovated buildings.
|
FEATURES
|
° A very long life and great strenght.
° A cost-effective structure both to
build and to mantain.
° Modern architecture with a combination
of sizes, colours and ceramic tiles.
