Shaped glass fiber reinforced concrete for ventilated rainscreen facades
Better than precast: unitized facade systems made of concrete
As monolithic-looking concrete fins, formparts offer a high degree of flexibility and a wide range of design possibilities for GFRC facades. These custom-made components, with their delicate appearance, are fabricated according to project requirements and enable complex three-dimensional geometries as well as a seamless visual appearance. Despite their slim profile, the elements provide high structural stability even over large spans. At the same time, their moisture-resistant material composition and low susceptibility to soiling ensure durable, low-maintenance facade surfaces.
Rieder products also serve as sun shading and visual protection elements. As an efficient and innovative solution, the material contributes to both cooling and thermal regulation of building facades. With fibreC glass fiber reinforced concrete building envelopes, no “heat island effect” is created.
Installation
The advantages of these lightweight components also become evident during construction: thanks to factory pre-assembly and a well-engineered fastening system, the elements can be installed on site efficiently, precisely and at a high quality level – regardless of weather conditions.
Plug & play: The connected formparts are joined using different fixing brackets depending on their dimensions. As a system provider, Rieder supplies perfectly coordinated components, offering a complete facade solution from a single source. The simple hook-on system allows on-site adjustment, precise fit and concealed installation.
The formparts datasheet describes the various options for profiles in detail.
Colors
The authentic colors blend well into landscapes and correspond with nature and the environment. Color variations within a color tone are intended and enhance the liveliness of the building material, concrete. formparts can be easily combined with concrete skin.
