Second Excerpt: Robothams Architects this modern and striking steel framed building complete with composite concrete floors based around an economical structural system.
To achieve the desired effect, carried out zinc vertical cladding and soffits to the curved façade. This involved supplying and fitting pre-weathered 0.8mm Rheinzink to around 1050m2 of wall which was fixed using vertical standing seams. The same specification of Rheinzink was also supplied and fixed to approximately 214m2 of soffit to the curved facade.
The pre-weathered zinc was laid on a vac-vac treated timber substrate with ventilation details incorporated in order to help ensure long life and minimal maintenance.
