Lessons from Leaky Homes - Designing Weatherproof Facades
Fairview Architectural
Waterproofing has become the most common defect in Australia with waterproofing failures present in approximately 30% of apartment buildings. This should give property owners and industry professionals some pause as waterproofing issues often do not manifest until well into a building’s life and can be extremely difficult and costly to remediate. In this whitepaper, we discuss several factors designers and specifiers need to consider when designing weatherproof and compliant façade systems.

In this whitepaper, we dive into these matters in detail, setting out the key considerations that designers and specifiers must account for when selecting cladding for their next project.

Recladding for Fire Safety - Vitracore G2 Bonded Aluminium Panels
Fairview Architectural
There are misconceptions about ACPs within the industry
that should be addressed. There are composite cladding
solutions that do not have a flammable polyethylene core and are non-combustible in accordance with the requirements of the National Construction Code (NCC) – Fairview’s Vitracore G2, a bonded aluminium panel solution with a non-combustible profiled aluminium core, is one such solution. Vitracore G2 offers the architectural benefits of ACPs – light weight, strength, and durability – while delivering ample fire resistance.
In this whitepaper, we deep dive into the history, composition and manufacturing process for Vitracore G2 and look at how it may be used in recladding projects to achieve compliance with the NCC’s
fire performance requirements for external facades.
