Our Structural Facade Engineering Services
- Concept and Systems Design
At the heart of facade engineering lies concept and systems design. This phase involves:
- Technical Planning: Developing comprehensive technical plans for various facade types and elements tailored to the project’s architectural vision.
- Adaptation of Existing Systems: Modifying existing facade systems to meet specific project requirements.
- Detail Design: Creating detailed designs that serve as the foundation for structural plans.
- Structural Calculations and Analysis
Structural calculations are crucial for ensuring the safety and functionality of facades. Key aspects include:
- Load Analysis: Evaluating wind loads, dead loads, and live loads to ensure structural stability.
- Material Validation: Assessing the structural capacity of materials such as aluminum profiles, steel sections, and glazing systems.
- Finite Element Analysis (FEA): Utilizing advanced numerical methods to analyze complex facade components under various conditions.
- Shop Drawings and Fabrication
Creating precise shop drawings is essential for effective construction. This includes:
- Drafting Detailed Drawings: Producing comprehensive shop drawings that outline all materials, dimensions, and assembly instructions.
- Fabrication Support: Providing fabrication drawings that guide the manufacturing process, ensuring accuracy in production.
- Material Take-Off and Specification
Accurate material take-off is vital for budgeting and resource management:
- Material Identification: Defining the types and quantities of materials required for the project.
- Quality Assurance: Ensuring that the materials meet specified quality standards through meticulous checks and comparisons.
- Installation Drawings
Installation drawings facilitate a smooth construction process by:
- Providing Clear Instructions: Offering detailed installation instructions that coordinate with other trades.
- Assembly Documentation: Preparing comprehensive assembly documentation to guide contractors during installation.
- Performance Testing and Quality Assurance
To ensure that facades meet performance standards, rigorous testing is conducted:
- Laboratory Mock-Ups: Conducting performance mock-ups in controlled environments to validate design effectiveness.
- Field Verification: Performing on-site inspections to ensure compliance with design specifications.
- As-Built Documentation
Upon project completion, as-built drawings are prepared:
- Final Documentation: Compiling all relevant documentation that reflects the actual construction of the facade, which is essential for future maintenance and inspections.
- Final Documentation: Compiling all relevant documentation that reflects the actual construction of the facade, which is essential for future maintenance and inspections.
- Remediation Services
For existing structures, facade engineers offer remediation services to address issues such as:
- Structural Defects: Providing solutions for any identified structural deficiencies in existing facades.
- Maintenance Strategies: Developing strategies for ongoing maintenance and repair of facade systems.
