Aspects of facade construction

The facade is of great importance for houses: it protects your house from environmental influences to which it is constantly exposed. However, your facade is also particularly important for the first impression and the look in general. In addition, it should fit your own preferences so that it brings joy in the long term. In this article we will go into the aspects to be considered in facade construction.

Technical aspects in façade construction

The most important technical aspects in facade construction are fire protection and the insulation of the facade. For fire protection, there are strict specifications regarding the materials and their properties, which are specified by the legislator. The façade construction must prevent fires and explosions from occurring and, in the event of a fire, have a certain load-bearing capacity. In addition, the development of heat and smoke should be limited as far as possible and the construction should prevent it from spreading to other floors. For your own safety and the safety of the residents, please make sure that you comply with all the specifications.

Another aspect of facade construction is particularly noticeable in the wallet and in general living comfort: the insulation or thermal insulation. Façade insulation means that more heating energy stays in the house. This has a direct effect on energy consumption, because the same temperature can be reached with less heating energy. Another advantage is that less cold comes into the house in winter and less heat in summer. This creates a pleasant feel-good climate. Façade insulation also prevents mold. However, not every type of insulation is suitable for every building.

When insulating the facade, attention must be paid to the type of house to which the facade construction is to be attached. Depending on whether it is an old building, a new building or a listed building, for example, the assembly technology differs. If unsuitable material or an unsuitable assembly technique is used here, this will later require subsequent improvement. The big challenge is to correctly combine these technical aspects in facade construction with each other and then also with your aesthetic ideas.
