Engineering Solutions (R&D)

Thermal and acoustic insulation, wind load, and structural calculations are carried out; where standard systems fall short, project-specific profiles and joints are developed.

Joinery is a building component, not just an installation job. System selection is therefore based on calculated performance figures: thermal transmittance, acoustic insulation, air and water tightness, and wind load. Where standard systems fall short — large openings, high floors, or facades with unusual geometry — project-specific profile reinforcement and joint details are developed. Structural calculations and joint work with the system manufacturer are carried out where required.

What this step covers

• Thermal transmittance (Uw) and condensation assessment • Acoustic insulation and air/water tightness performance • Wind load and structural reinforcement calculations • Project-specific profile and joint detail development
