5 benefits of metallic cladding for the outer layer of your ventilated facade

The ventilated facade built with a metallic cladding system brings great benefits. We tell you about them in this article! A ventilated facade is an exterior cladding system used in building to improve thermal insulation, moisture control, and the aesthetic appearance of the facade. The ventilated facade can be made of metallic cladding to improve its performance, as we will tell you in the following lines. Metallic cladding for the layers of a ventilated facade The lining of a ventilated facade consists of several layers. The base layer is the building structure, followed by an insulating layer that helps improve the buildings energy efficiency by reducing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. An air chamber is installed on top of the insulation that allows air to circulate between the facade and the exterior cladding. This helps regulate the temperature and wick away any moisture that may accumulate between the layers. The outer layer is the coating itself, which can be made of different materials and is visible. In this sense, whenever steel is chosen for the exterior cladding of a ventilated facade, we will ensure the following benefits: Benefits of an external metallic cladding on your metal facade Durability: Steel is a very resistant and durable material, capable of withstanding the most adverse weather conditions. wide range of possibilities to modulate the aesthetics of the facade. Appealing Aesthetics: Modern, sleek look. It can be used in different ways, playing with geometry or even in three-dimensional shapes, allowing for a wide variety of architectural designs. Lightness: Despite its strength, steel is a relatively lightweight material compared to other cladding, which makes it easy to install and reduces the structural load on the building. Reduced Maintenance: Steel liners require minimal maintenance, extending their life and reducing the need for frequent repairs and refinishing. Versatility: Steel can be molded and adapted to different shapes and sizes, which allows great flexibility in the design of the façade. Furthermore, it is compatible with other cladding materials, allowing it to be combined with glass, wood or other materials to achieve interesting visual effects. At TAS we are manufacturers of exterior metallic cladding for ventilated facades made of steel, aluminum, zinc or other metals. We have a wide range of architectural profiles for the cladding of this type of facades and we can manufacture an infinite number of options of metal sheets by varying their geometry.

3 factors to take into account for the ventilation of industrial buildings

Discover in this article the basic principles on the ventilation of industrial buildings and other types of buildings. When we talk about the ventilation of industrial buildings, various factors must be taken into account that can affect its performance. Given the importance of having an optimal ventilation system in an industrial space, the study and prior planning of all the related elements will be key. Before going on to describe and comment on each of these factors, we must understand how the ventilation of industrial buildings works: “The fundamental principle of the ventilation of an industrial building is that the heat that is generated must be evacuated through the difference in temperature of the fresh air that enters through the low level and the stale air that is evacuated through the high level.” Taking this concept into account, we will now describe what must be taken into account when planning an optimal static or dynamic ventilation system. 1. What activity will be carried out inside the industrial warehouse? This is probably the first question that we must clarify, since the number of air changes per hour should be projected based on the needs of the industry that develops inside, as well as based on whether there will be people or animals in the room inside. In this sense, the “General Ordinance on Safety and Hygiene at Work” speaks of a minimum of 6 renewals per hour where there are workers. Depending on the activity that is carried out and based on the experience of both the Profilers Union, the Arcelor Group and our own, we have created a table of recommendations with a maximum and minimum value that allows us to adapt to different types and constructions beyond warehouses: If you don’t know how to reach the recommended number of renewals per hour, don’t worry. At TAS we can help you through a personalized ventilation study to choose the ventilation system for industrial buildings that best suits your project and meets this recommendation. 2. Air inlet through the low level or facade The volume of air that will enter the facility through the lower elevation must be planned and estimated. The number of air changes per hour that can be achieved will depend on the volume of air that can be introduced from the lower level. To manage the entry of air through the low level, we must take into account the size of the doors of the building, as well as anticipate whether these doors will normally remain closed or open. In the event that the doors are to be normally closed or their dimensions are not sufficient to achieve optimal ventilation, the installation of TAS ventilation grills should be planned to guarantee the entry of fresh air. 3. Air outlet through the high or covered level It will be just as important to project and estimate the flow of fresh air that enters through the low level as it is to anticipate the volume of stale air that can be evacuated through the high or covered level. In this way, the real needs for air evacuation must be considered to plan what type of ventilation system for industrial buildings will best fit and what number of fans should be used. In this sense, for the evacuation of stale air through the deck or roof, there are two main options: Point ventilation: it is achieved by installing aerators or extractors at different points on the roof, the operation of which is based either on wind energy (industrial wind aerator), on electrical energy (dynamic or forced aerator) or on a hybrid system that combines wind energy and electricity (Venturi aerator). Linear ventilation: it is achieved through linear fans (AIR-TAS) installed in the highest part of the roof, or ridge. These linear fans or aerators are installed over holes or cavities made in the roof itself and are designed to constantly evacuate stale air based on the pressure difference. We hope we have helped you with this entry on the ventilation of industrial buildings and buildings in general.

Perforated metal facade on singel family house

Do not miss our latest perforated metal facade project with our Menorca Profile! It is a private single-family home for which we have manufactured our Menorca facade profile, both blind and perforated R18T40 in Pyrenees white to be applied as a self-supporting metal facade. House with perforated metal facade – Panoramic view For this project, an important novelty has been incorporated in the perforation of the profile and that is that each perforation is right in the center of each folded face, thus achieving a more elegant and stylish appearance. Material and qualities used for its manufacture This facade profile has been made of pre-lacquered steel with a thickness of 0.8 mm and its color combines in an unbeatable way with the environment in which the house is located, as well as with the rest of the wooden facade. Benefits of architectural facade profiles As we have already mentioned on some occasion before, the use of perforated facade architectural profiles provides great benefits. The most relevant are highlighted below: Aesthetics and design: Perforated sheets add an attractive aesthetic element to facades. Perforations create interesting patterns and designs that can enhance the architectural appearance of a building. In addition, they allow the play of light and shadow, creating unique visual effects. Ventilation and air flow: The perforations allow the passage of air through the facade. This is especially beneficial in hot climates, as it promotes natural ventilation and helps keep the interior of the building cool, reducing the need for air conditioning systems and improving energy efficiency. Durability and resistance: Architectural profiles made of metals such as galvanized steel or aluminum have high durability and excellent behavior in the face of environmental conditions, such as weathering or corrosion. Low maintenance: Unlike other materials, metals such as steel or aluminum require minimal maintenance, providing a great appearance several years after its application. Sustainability: Much of the metal used to manufacture the architectural profiles developed by TAS come from recycled metals and are 100% recyclable, making them a sustainable and responsible option from an environmental point of view. The elegance of metal In this project specifically, beyond the benefits mentioned, the Menorca facade profile provides an avant-garde style that breaks with the traditional and marks a differentiated style from other homes. The balance found between the warmth of the wood, the nobility of the steel and the freshness of the vegetation provide a harmony and a pleasant environment that leaves no one indifferent.

Roofing vent for ventilation of industrial buildings

An efficient and sustainable solution to achieve a static ventilation circuit for industrial buildings The roofing vent is a solution designed from a folded steel sheet structure that allows a constant flow of air without letting water through. The roofing vent is placed in the highest part of the industrial building, or ridge and its operation is based on the difference in atmospheric pressure. How does the roofing vent work? In such a way that the stale air inside the industrial building -warm air, which is not very dense and weighs less than cold air- will move towards the upper part of the building as the renewed air enters through the lower level.Then the roofing vent – installed in the upper part of the building – will allow this heavier air to be extracted through its throat: Roofing vent applications The roofing vent is a ventilation solution that is commonly applied in new industrial buildings due to its quick installation and its effectiveness right out of the box. This static fan is perfectly aligned with the principles of sustainability and efficiency since it has zero energy consumption and does not require any maintenance. Available models of the roofing vent AIR-TAS 250: Roofing vent with 250 mm throat. It is the most common and is supplied either assembled for quick installation, or unassembled in parts. In this case, it includes an assembly guide. AIR-TAS 500: Roofing vent with 500 mm throat. It is typically used for industrial buildings that are larger than average in size and have a high need for indoor air ventilation. This model can also be supplied both assembled and unassembled in parts, with its corresponding assembly guide. AIR-TAS 1000: Roofing vent with 1,000 mm throat. It is usually used less commonly for industrial buildings that require an average extraction flow of between 3,000 and 4,000 m^3 per hour per linear meter. In this case, it is only supplied by parts without the possibility of being assembled in the factory. AIR-TAS 1200: Roofing vent with 1,200 mm throat. Once again, an unusual model designed for industrial spaces in which the activity that takes place inside is very aggressive and requires constant and abundant air circulation. This model must be assembled on site. AIR-TAS 3000: Roofing vent with 3,000 mm throat. With this model, a minimum extraction flow of more than 8,000 m^3 per hour and per linear meter is achieved. It is used in exceptional projects and its installation requires a high knowledge of the solution as well as qualified and experienced personnel in its assembly. The TAS roofing vent includes an anti-bird mesh on its surface to prevent the entry of birds and can be installed on both a simple sheet metal or sandwich panel roof without inconvenience.
