Composite view
Today, building builders are no longer limited to using materials such as brick, stone or cement, as in the past, and there are many materials for building facades. Aluminum facade is one of the most used facades in modern buildings. The aluminum facade is actually an aluminum sheet that is installed on the outer wall of the building in the form of specific panels with dimensions determined by the designer. The name of these views is so-called composite view.
Aluminum composite sheet consists of three layers. These layers include two layers of aluminum sheets with a thickness of 3 to 0.5 mm and one layer of polyethylene materials with a thickness of 3 to 5 mm. The outer layer of this facade has an epoxy resin primer coating and a PVDF layer to stabilize the color. A layer of film is also placed on the surface of the aluminum composite sheet for protection. According to the thickness, the type of aluminum alloy of the layers, the type of color used in the outer shell and the type of material used in the middle layer, the aluminum composite sheet gives a wide variety to these sheets. Of course, it is interesting to know that each type of composite sheet has a specific quality and application.
What are the benefits of using aluminum composite view?
◾️ Composite aluminum sheets have many advantages and because of these advantages, they are used in the facade of buildings. The facade made with composite aluminum sheet has unique features and has always been the focus of architects and designers in modern facade construction. Aluminum composite is resistant to temperature changes. Due to its unique characteristics, this type of composite can withstand temperature changes from minus 50°C to 80°C without any change in quality. ◾️ This type of composite is special for the facade, as well as moisture insulation. Actually, by creating a space between the aluminum composite sheets and the wall of the building, a kind of heat, sound and moisture insulation is created. From another point of view, it can be said that by creating the possibility of air flow behind the composite panels, the heat in the environment does not penetrate inside the building. Therefore, composites are also considered as a type of thermal insulation.
◾️ Using aluminum composite facade has other benefits. Installing this type of facade is very easy and fast. This facade also has a great variety of colors and it is possible to bend, drill and cut aluminum composites. Aluminum composites are very easy to transport due to their light weight. It is also possible to create various views due to its high changeability using aluminum composite. These facades have very little weight compared to other construction materials and are washable, they also have various dimensions and are resistant to earthquakes and fire. ◾️ Another feature of aluminum composite facade is the possibility of sealing them. The facade sealing is created in such a way that there is no possibility of water penetration under the facade, and the water caused by rain and snow is removed from a certain place after being directed to the built-in grooves. Also, these sheets are completely resistant to corrosion caused by weather and acid rains, and atmospheric factors will not affect the beauty and quality of the facade.
What is the use of aluminum facade?
Among the applications of composite aluminum facades, we can mention covering the facades of administrative, industrial, educational, health buildings, airports, terminals, metro stations with them. Aluminum facade can also be used to cover domes and special buildings that need to use special colors in their facades. In addition, aluminum composite is mainly used to create metal cladding or external and internal partitions, false ceilings, signs, car covers, tank construction and other such factors. Parallel to new technologies and due to the diversity of architects' interests and customers' requests, construction materials are constantly changing, progressing and developing. But one of the most used materials for the facade of buildings is definitely aluminum composite. As mentioned, this substance has many uses.
