What is Flashing Facade?
Flushing of the facade of the building is used to seal the building and hide the gable structure. The dimensions and size of the facade's flashing sections depend on the final size of the work. Flushing of the frame and window is also used to beautify the sandwich panel. The materials used to make the flushing are galvanized, oiled and colored sheets in different thicknesses.
Types of Building Flashing Based on their Application

Window flashing
Window flashing is used on the edges or cornices of doors and windows.

The window flushing itself has different types such as spoon frame gutter, shaded frame gutter, double-sided gutter, stepped French gutter, etc.
Flashing on the Wall
Flushing is used on the wall of the building for covering. After the implementation of sandwich panel or galvanized sheet, flushing is used to cover the connection points of the roof and the wall or two walls connected together. Actually, when two walls are connected, the flashing of the facade of the building is placed between the two walls. Of course, you can use prefabricated samples to perform flushing on the wall.

Flashing Types Based on appearance
Flashings have different models, but some of them are used more because of their good features. Some of the commonly used flushing models are:
Flushing model U
Corner model flushing
Flushing model of three steps
Crown model flushing
Flashing Model Yo (U)
The shape of the U model, as the name suggests, looks like a U with 90 degree angles. These types of flashings can be produced in different sizes and colors, as well as high strength and resistance is its unique feature. This model is mostly used for the complete sealing of ceiling sandwich panels and the covering of sandwich panel joints of walls, especially short walls.
Flushing Model
In this model of flushing, the corner edges are bent inward or outward. This type of painting is done in two ways, internal and external, and this determines whether the edges are inward or outward. This model is used to cover the seams between the ceiling and the wall from inside or outside.
Flashing Model Three Step (Z)
This model is made at 90 degree angles and has bent edges. The design of three steps prevents water from entering. This type is available in different sizes and colors. Usually, this model is used in the front part of the ceiling sandwich panels because it blocks the sunlight well.
Crown Model Flashing
Crown model flushing is produced with specific angles and has three parts: top, sealant foam and sole flushing. The existence of all these parts makes the sealing and wave covering of sandwich panels to be done well. This model is used for the upper part and crown of the roof of sheds or places with double-slope roofs.
