Facade Cladding Pressures and Performance of Facade Elements
Facade pressure studies define local design pressures for facade systems.

Facade Cladding Pressure Studies

Facade cladding pressure studies define local positive and negative pressures for glazing, panels, attachments and facade elements. Wind tunnel measurements allow design pressures to be mapped across the facade with far more project-specific detail than generic code values.

The results help facade engineers develop pressure zones, refine component design and coordinate performance requirements for complex building envelopes.
