Nowadays, porcelain stoneware ventilated fa\u00e7ades<\/a><\/u><\/strong> are the most popular solutions for cladding buildings, thanks to their aesthetic impact, the energy efficiency they guarantee and the important contribution they make to sustainable architecture. But where should we start and how do we install ventilated fa\u00e7ades <\/strong>properly?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stages for installing a ventilated fa\u00e7ade<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After the initial stages and the feasibility study, the design stage of a new building or a ventilated fa\u00e7ade on an existing building involves choosing the materials. Installing<\/u><\/strong> porcelain stoneware ventilated fa\u00e7ades<\/u><\/strong> provides designers with wide scope for creating their compositions, thanks to a vast range of finishes and textures available for external fa\u00e7ade panels<\/strong>. Right now, it is not only important to establish and reflect on the set-up objectives to be achieved using formats, finishes and textures, but also on systems for attaching ventilated fa\u00e7ades<\/strong>, elements often underrated despite the essential role they play in terms of safety and performance of the entire structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the panels for the external fa\u00e7ades<\/u><\/strong> have been chosen together with the systems for attaching the ventilated fa\u00e7ades<\/strong>, which have either visible or invisible anchoring depending on the project\u2019s aesthetic needs, the next stages are design and completion of the work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The structures need to have static verification and wind thrust, linked to the wall support in line with load study and dowel extraction tests carried out on site, external fatigue tests and static calculations to guarantee the entire system\u2019s reliability. The design is architectural and structural as it also foresees the positioning of fixed and sliding points, designed to guarantee the physiological heat dilation of the structure\u2019s metal parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
