In traditional plumbing technology details such as penetrations, connections and flashing can be carried out by folding, seaming and riveting without the need for adhesives or welding and soldering. This work requires a high degree of craftsmanship and should only be carried out by qualified tradesmen. As a rule timber is used as a substrate. The elements are then fixed to this in an angle seam technique using copper or stainless steel clips.
Relatively new in plumbing technology is the creation of façade cladding with a substrate of trapezoidal profile sheets. These sheets can be made of various materials depending on the structural engineering requirements. Attention must be paid that there is no chemical contact.
The clear advantage of a construction such as this is the quality of craftsmanship of the façade. Another factor is its fire resistance according to DIN 4102 (the respective requirements set out in state building regulations must be complied with).
The elements are used for roof and façade cladding, as well as cladding on parapets and dormers.
Façade cladding can be assembled in different directions (vertical, horizontal or diagonal), also as a combination of these.
