Lexan Thermoclick wall sheeting is mainly used in façade applications utilising 40 mm UV protected multiwall X-structure sheeting that has a profiled tongue and groove connection. The inter-connecting system eliminates the need for vertical profiles, potentially saving costs and enhancing building aesthetics. The X-structure of the sheet provides exceptional stiffness and thermal insulation. Features of Thermoclick: unique four wall with X-structure; UV protected surface for long term weather resistance; good light transmission/light diffusion; extremely high stiffness; excellent thermal insulation; high impact strength; easy and fast installation; available in Solar Control IR version for optimal solar heat reduction; aluminium glazing profiles available.

The building is spread over two-levels of 12,000m2, with a form that expresses the progressive nature of the construction industry. Lexan Thermoclick completely covers the Southern, Eastern and Western facades including the truck size horizontal bi-fold doors. The skylights are also Ampelite Thermal Skylight which contributes notably to the abundance of natural light. The design provides a loose-fit long-life shell that responds to and caters for changing course programmes by maximising flexible spaces and incorporating innovative and sustainable materials. The building was awarded a 6 Star Green Star rating due to its embedded sustainability measures including optimised day lighting through highly insulated facades; a mix of passive and active ventilation; and temperature control systems.

Winner of Australian House of the Year at the 2019 Houses Awards, its no surprise that Daylesford Longhouse is an endearing building. A boutique farm, garden kitchen, cooking school, reception venue and a home consolidated within a single 110 l/m metre shed, clad almost entirely in Wonderglas GC. Set minutes from the idyllic town of Daylesford in central Victoria, the elevated property looks out over vast plains and bush land across Daylesford, Hepburn Springs and Mt Franklin. Revitalising the pastoral shed of yesteryear, the industrial structure sits on minimal footings with a gravel floor. The Longhouse is built to passive house standards with very few heating and cooling inputs and provision for solar paneling and battery storage.

Ampelite Lexan Thermoclear is a high quality low maintenance glazing material that is built to last. Lexan polycarbonate resin delivers high impact strength, an excellent balance of low weight and high stiffness and naturally very clear transparency. Lexan Thermoclear allows for a multitude of applications including roofing, wall cladding, glazing and partitioning. The sheeting is suitable for use in vertical, sloped or curved scenarios. It blocks 99.9% of harmful UV radiation. Both sides of the sheeting feature UV protection giving superior resistance to outdoor weathering and greater design flexibility. It is also suitable for use in bushfire prone zones BALs 19 and below. It is flame resistant, self extinguishing, stops the spread of flame and develops minimal smoke.

DESIGN MANUAL

Ampelite, Australias most experienced and largest manufacturer of fibreglass roofing introduced Wonderglas GC gel coated sheeting to Australia in 1994, adapting the process originally developed by BP chemicals in the United States, to expressly combat Australias very harsh environment.The highly UV resistant resins used in the manufacture of Wonderglas GC provide the ultimate in protection ahead of even the latest surface film technology. The 100 micron thick gel coat is integral with the sheet, (chemically cross bonded), and no delamination is possible. The gel coated sheet surface becomes an almost impenetrable barrier that reduces surface erosion and loss of light transmission to negligible proportions.

Steel studs may be used as ceiling joints, especially in situations where it is difficult to install a suspended ceiling. Typical applications would be corridors, bathrooms or open roof areas. This design manual includes a table which sets out the maximum spans for Rondo steel studs. They also show the minimum rows of bridging. Bridging in a ceiling serves the same purpose as noggings in a wall. An installation guide is also included which covers the information about mechanical joints, friction joints, bulkheads and span tables.

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is a transparent, objective report that communicates what a product is made of and how it impacts the environment across its entire life cycle. A verified EPD can earn your products credits for LEED v4 and other green building rating systems. EPDs satisfy all of the requirements of Product Category Rules (PCR) and follow international standards, including ISO 14044, ISO 14025, and ISO 21930.
