Ventilated facade of metallocassa

Because of its practical and aesthetic advantages, a ventilated metallocassa facade is a modern solution that is becoming more and more popular in contemporary architecture. With the help of this creative facade system, buildings can look better while simultaneously becoming more durable and energy-efficient.

The term "metallocassa" describes a facade that has metal panels as its outer layer. The materials used to make these panels are usually steel or aluminum, which are renowned for being lightweight and resistant to weather. The open area that permits natural airflow between the facade panels and the building structure is referred to as "ventilated."

The ability of a ventilated metallocassa facade to control indoor temperature and moisture content is one of its main benefits. Heat loss in the winter and heat buildup in the summer are lessened by ventilated air gaps, which helps lower the amount of energy used for heating and cooling.

Metallocassa facades provide architectural design versatility. Depending on the desired look for the building, architects can achieve a wide range of aesthetic effects with the panels, from sleek and modern to textured and rustic. The panels can be customized in various colors, finishes, and textures.

What is needed for the device of the ventilated facade

The wide range of final results that are made possible by the variety of contemporary facing materials is part of the technology of the ventilated facade device. Among them are:

Ceramic pottery

Cement-fiber panels

Cassettes for facades in a warehouse

Laminated HPL panel facade

Installing clinker tile facade thermal panels

Composite facade panels made of aluminum

Panels for the facade and siding

Sandwich panels for the facade

Purchasing face material made in Russia is more advantageous for the consumer. The rationale is that selecting imported models may lead to issues during the post-warranty servicing phase. Therefore, the desired material might not be available if a piece-by-piece replacement of elements is needed.

What is a metal cassette

Galvanized steel cassettes for use as facade metal

One kind of facing material meant for the exterior wall decoration of a home is metal cassette. Different shapes are possible for cassettes:

  • rectangular;
  • triangular;
  • trapezoidal;
  • P-shaped.

Rectangular metal cassettes’ standard measurements

Length (mm) Width (mm)
1160 1160
1160 535
1160 326
535 535
535 326
326 326
1400 600
1000 310

Items made of metal with a specific geometric design and a decorative coating that prevents corrosion

Every panel has a right side, and the side shelves on all four sides of this product are positioned at a right angle. In the factory, graduates are painted with powder paint. By using this technique for metal protection, you can make a coating that is highly durable, impervious to mechanical damage and atmospheric precipitation.

Use 0.7–1.5 mm thick sheets of galvanized steel when making panels. The cassette’s size determines the option. Paint application and polymerization can happen both before and after the panel is manufactured. Brass and copper can be used to create upscale facades. These types of facing materials cost more money. The metal cassettes are unique in that they weigh very little. This gives you the option to install a more straightforward and affordable facade system.

Contemporary aluminum facade cassettes

One may get an impression of the multivariance of the installation of these materials when examining the material on the independent metal cassette cladding of the house. However, it should be recognized that each manufacturer gives its products and installation system a unique name, which accounts for the diversity of the suggested technologies. This fact alone, rather than variations in the way the panels are mounted on the house’s exterior walls, determines variability precisely.

For instance, the ventilated facade systems Venfas, "Abris," "Craban," "Alt Facade," and others are identical in every way. The type of premature elements used, the kind and technique of coating the metal with a protective layer, the range of color schemes, and the textured panels are the only subtle differences.

Types of metal cassettes

Metal cassettes with patterns, perforations, and non-standard sizes and configurations are available from manufacturers. Once this finishing material’s installation technology is figured out, you can buy products from any company, domestic or foreign, without fear.

Perforated

Panels with perforations for a facade

With the help of internal LED architectural backlight and perforated metal panels, you can outfit distinctive facades. A structure like this will always be noticeable, but it is especially striking in the evening and at night. The only thing that sets perforated panels apart from the norm is the uniform hole pattern.

Voluminous

Creative facade cassettes

Additionally, volumetric panels are made on the metallocassa base. The task appears ostentatious and futuristic thanks to these materials. Volumetric panels can be applied to the facade’s individual sections or to its whole surface. Whichever option is selected for decoration, the building will undoubtedly get its own unique bar.

Volumetric metal cassettes come in a variety of shapes and sizes.

  • wave -shaped;
  • pointed;
  • cone -shaped;
  • In the form of honeycombs.

Because of the extraordinarily broad range of artistic applications for this material, its popularity is steadily increasing.

Multicolored

Cassettes coated in metallic and chameleon colors provide an amazing view of the building. These kinds of products are further sealed with a polyester spray coating for added security. The facade will be adorned with multicolored metal cassettes that will change color based on the direction of the light beams falling on it. You can give the building a distinctive look and drastically alter its appearance with the aid of this facing material.

Constructive features of metal cassettes

Metal cassettes of the open and closed types are used to provide clarity regarding a building’s exterior walls. The way the former are installed and the final structure looks distinguishes them from the latter.

Upon arranging the facade of the open-type shafts, every fastening panel point will be visible from one another. As a result, fasteners that have hats painted the same color as the metal cassettes are used for the connection. A continuous plane without any visible gaps forms during the installation of closed panels. The metal cassettes are mounted on the ventilated facade subsystem, or on a sturdy frame, regardless of the mounting technique used.

This is how the metallocassa facade’s main fasteners for the crate look.

Note that facing material is attached to a supporting plane, which is called a subsystem. This design is attached to a heat insulator and other components, such as supporting profiles, brackets, anchors, etc., in the case of the ventilated facade.

The phased styling of the metal cassettes, with the entry of the side shelves of each subsequent panel on the side shelves of the preceding, is the fundamental component of the open method of fastening. The typical venue depth is 2.5 cm. Installing fasteners involves taking 20–25 cm steps.

Mounting types: closed (left) and open (left).

The hook of each subsequent cassette per shelf of the preceding is the basis of the concealed installation technique. The assembly process is done both left to right and from the bottom up. When installed, each subsequent panel closes its fixation point on the preceding panel’s frame. and is similarly attached in return. This is how closed-type metal cassettes are used to finish the facade.

The mount of the metal cassette’s seam is the primary distinction between open- and closed-type metal cassettes.

The structure of the ventilated facade

To install metal cassettes independently, you must be aware of the ventilated facades’ design elements. Subsystems for their installation are provided by all producers of building materials for external decoration. The cladding device’s technology is sometimes referred to as "NVF" (hinged ventilated facade). It is essential to understand the similarities between the NVF and the "ventilated facade" in order to comprehend information more fully.

A comprehensive plan for installing facade cassettes

This type of external building decoration system is highly practical as it provides excellent ventilation and thermal insulation. The NVF’s principal components are:

  • bearing wall;
  • thermal insulation layer;
  • brackets that are necessary for fastening facing material;
  • facing material (in this case, metal cassettes).

The finishing material serves two purposes: it preserves the building’s architectural attractiveness and shields the heat insulator from the damaging effects of the surrounding environment.

The principle of operation of the ventilated facade

Because air can move from a warm point in a medium to a cold point, the temperature differential between the inside and outside guarantees the creation of a heat flow directed from the inside out. The air flow passes through a wall and NVF as a barrier on its route.

Wall heat exchange system with a facade that is ventilated

It heats these materials to different degrees as it passes through them. The temperature of the material decreases with increasing distance from the facade’s outer surface. The NVF ventilation gap raises the temperature of the facade’s outer layer above the surrounding air because air is the best heat accumulator. The temperature of the cladding is 1-3 °C higher, which indicates an average.

Consequently, cold air heats up and rises when it comes into contact with the NVF. Consequently, a constant air flow with an average speed of 0.5 m/s is produced along the house’s wall.

Fresh air enters the NVF through the lower vents and cladding gaps, ensuring that moisture evaporation occurs. After moving upward along the wall, the air flow exits the facade and drags pairs.

It’s crucial to understand that brackets have a unique function in heat transfer. Heat losses can reach 10–15% if the material used to make them has a high heatwood content. It is necessary to apply a thicker layer of thermal insulation material as compensation. As such, the material that brackets are made of must be considered when selecting them. Aluminum has the highest thermal conductivity coefficient of any metal, including aluminum that has been declared. Steel and alloys are the best options.

Calculation of materials for facade cladding

To determine how many and what sizes of metal cassettes to use, a project facade cladding must be created. All manufacturers and retailers of finishing materials provide this service. In the event that contacting a specialist is not possible, you can perform an independent calculation using the suggested guidance.

You can use the most basic formulas to determine the cladding.

Step 1: Measure the height and length of the windows, doors, and walls using roulette. Measure the distances between the wall’s angles and the openings that are situated on it. Note the values that were obtained.

Step 2: Multiply the length by the width of the wall, window, and doorway areas to determine their area. Note the values that were obtained.

Step 3: The area of the openings that are on each wall is subtracted from its total area. Consequently, four digits should be obtained and folded to determine the entire area of the space that needs to be linked.

Step 4: At this point, you must determine the metallocassa’s ideal length and width measurements. The computation is done under the assumption that the panels must be installed in their entirety, without any trimming, on the walls. It is crucial to consider how wide the angular profile’s shelves are. You can use the gear metal racks if needed to seal the gaps.

Guidelines for the amount of materials used when building a ventilated facade out of a metallocassa

It is advised to ascertain in advance the sizes of metal cassettes and other components that can be purchased in this settlement in order to streamline the computation of the quantity of materials needed.

Drawing up a subsystem scheme

They comprise the supporting frame’s circuit and are determined by the computations obtained at the preceding step. It ought to show where the brackets mount to the wall. They consider the fact that every metal cassette has the proper holes for attaching to the subsystem. The spacing between these holes is the main focus of the scheme compilation.

It is critical to consider the kind of metallocassa. The shelves of adjacent products will overlap one another if an open mount panel is used. The height (length) of the metal casset is used to calculate the spacing between the horizontal crate’s profiles.

The metal cassette frame

As an illustration

The metallocassa shelves have holes spaced 53 centimeters apart. The wall is nine meters and sixty centimeters long from corner to corner. Installing 18 panels in a horizontal line is the proper course. We obtain 954 cm by multiplying 53 cm by 18. The difference between the wall length of 960 cm and the total panel length of 954 cm is 6 cm.

Corner profiles with shelves that are 5 cm wide will fill in this gap. The corner profile will go where the metal academy is fastened because we only need to close 6 cm and the total width of the angular profile shelves installed at both corners of the house is 10 cm. This will ensure that the design maintains the necessary integrity.

Every metal cassette has a length of 535 cm. The holes in the shelves are spaced 530 centimeters apart. The wall is 310 cm tall from the base to the roof. Six metal cassettes with a total length of 318 cm should be installed vertically. It will be necessary to trim the excess 8 cm and seal the cut at the finish line.

Step -by -step instructions for the installation of subsystem

The following equipment will be required to complete the task:

  • plumb line;
  • bubble building level at least 1 m long;
  • metal or wooden square;
  • simple pencil or marker;
  • screwdriver on batteries;
  • powerful drill or punch (the choice depends on the materials from which the walls of the house are built);
  • hammer;
  • Scissors for metal.

Resources:

  • initial bar;
  • Carrying profile;
  • slopes;
  • brackets;
  • Paronite gaskets;
  • anchors or dowels for attaching brackets;
  • thermal insulation material (mineral wool or foam slabs);
  • Tarelly dowels for attaching the heat insulator to the wall.

Brackets come in two varieties: unregulated and adjustable in length. The former is divided into a corner panel and a straight panel. Screws are used to connect these details. The panels have slots that let you push and advance the straight element. Installing compatible profiles on a single plane is made possible by this. Even walls can be lined with unregulated brackets.

The facade cladding project indicates the fastener installation step. When installing independently, it’s important to remember the rule: a 20–25 cm gap between marks is the ideal spacing.

Screwdrivers

Output of the plane of the horizontal crate

Step 1: Mark the wall in accordance with the previously created subsystem scheme using a pencil and roulette.

For precise marking, use the hydraulicarian.

Step 2: Install the plumb line at the top of the wall’s angle.

Step 3: Drill holes for the fastening brackets at the marking points along the string thread.

Drilling a hole to receive a bracket installation

Step 4: After installing paronite gaskets between the brackets and the wall, the anchors are pushed into the holes and the corner shelves are fastened.

There’s an anchor jammed in the dowel.

Wall-mounted brackets

Step 5: Attach the direct elements so they can move freely along the entire length of the slots in the brackets by screwing them to the corner shelves.

Step 6: Install the plumb line above the markings by moving it gradually. You should also install the brackets in a similar manner.

Step 7: Use screwdrivers and self-tapping screws to install the supporting profiles that are fastened to the brackets. Installing the profile is done horizontally. The crate can be positioned up to 30 mm in the horizontal plane thanks to the brackets’ design. Using a plumb line, the proper installation of profiles is routinely verified. The horizontal joints of the metallocassa should be the location of all the supports for this level of the crate.

General plan for attaching the facade’s frame

In the event that there are insufficient corner brackets to create a level surface beneath the panel, comparable components are affixed, albeit with longer shelf lengths.

Installation of heat, steam and wind protection

Step 1: Position the thermal insulation material plate on the wall so that the foam, or mineral wool, is resting on the brackets and situated between the supporting profiles. The installation of the heat insulator canvases guarantees joint dressing.

Installing and laying insulation

Step 2: Drill holes through the heat insulator in the wall so that there are at least 5 fastening points (one in each corner and the center).

Step 3: Insert plastic dowels into the drilled holes to secure the plate.

Above the insulation is a windberry or vapor barrier membrane. Both materials can be mounted at the same time. The selection of wall protection option is contingent upon the local climate in the area of residence. In regions with elevated relative humidity (marine climate), vapor barrier installation is necessary. A crucial detail to note is that there is a 10-15 cm overlap between the steam and wind protection canvases.

Step 4: The canvas for wind protection is fastened to the profile that is affixed to the upper section of the wall. To close the heat insulator, lower the roll down.

Step 5: The canvas is fastened to the supporting profiles using screws and a screwdriver.

Overlapped insulation is attached.

Step 6: Using a knife or pair of scissors, cut off the remaining roll. Till the wall is completely closed, carry out the wind protection installation process again.

Output of the plane of the vertical crate

Step 1: Vertically installed hat profiles with a width of 6.5 or 8 cm are attached to the horizontal crate with the aid of self-tapping screws. Ascertain that a level surface has been created by periodically using a plumb line to check the vertical.

The vertical junctions of the metallocassa should be the location of all profiles in this level of the crate. The space between the frame’s supports needs to be strictly withstanding.

Step 2: The basement is attached to the lower horizontal profile using screwdrivers and self-tapping screws.

Step 3: The first bar is erected the whole way up the wall, along the upper edge of the tide.
