Optimising Designs
A well-engineered facade is the most visually appealing part of a building. Bringing together geometry, building physics, software and architectural design to create a weatherproofing outer shell that protects the building from all aspects and impacts of the weather and provides breathtaking appeal—-one that is emblazoned in the minds of those who pass by.
EAE works to provide you with performance-based designs:
- Endurance Against The Elements: Our team manages facade components such as wind pressures, threshold height, and specifications of glazing, of the building so that it continues to stand up sustainably against the environmental pressures of the project’s location.
- Sufficient With Natural Light FP1.4: Our intelligent facade solutions are always designed with your building’s needs for natural light in mind, in compliance with the National Construction Code’s FP1.4
- Thorough Outside Evaluation: Our input to this process is the evaluation of external conditions of the building without compromising on quality and performance.
- Identify And Remedy Existing Faults And Weaknesses: If you have an existing building that is experiencing damage in the facade or nearby components, our team can help. Our facade engineers are able to perform inspections to evaluate and find faults, weaknesses and the reasons why they exist. Then remedy these issues with sound methodology.
