Wall Cladding
Wall cladding systems elaborated by Atlas Ward ensure modern appearance of an object and simultaneously they ensure optimal selection for the assumed conditions, which are to be met by a hall.
Cladding constitutes a separation between two kinds of environment - external and internal, thus limiting heat flow and protecting the inside of the hall against rainfall, snowfall and wind, as well as maintaining appropriate level of humidity inside the building. It ensures leakproofness of structure, lower costs of object maintenance, energy consumption and CO 2 emission.
Apart from technical and economical aspects, special attention is devoted to aesthetic appearance of an object when selecting wall cladding. Co-operation between architects, design engineers and investors allows to work upon the external appearance of an object, in order to create a visually interesting and unique building.
Suggested kinds of wall cladding:
 |
|
Panels in horizontal arrangement - columns form a support structure for panels [lack of transoms] in optimized spacing.
Panels in vertical arrangement - wall transoms form a support structure for panels.
|
Sandwich panels
- panel is composed of two linings from steel sheet and a structural-insulation core
- the core is made from polyurethane foam, mineral wool or foamed polystyrene
- double locks from the outside and from the inside, as well as a continuous seal ensure good insulation and leakproofness of contact
- panels are leakproof and fire resistant - documented by research
- various profiles of claddings allow for attractive appearance of objects
- rich color selection of claddings
- possibility of using locks that conceal connectors in order to enhance aesthetic appearance of an object
- anels are fastened to a support structure of the wall; spacing of elements that form a support structure depends on strength requirements and static requirements, different for each design

Caisson + wool + trapezoidal sheet [or facade panels]
|
Caisson + wool + sheet
- internal element: a caisson
- thermal insulation: mineral wool
- external element: trapezoidal sheet or facade panels
- a caisson is placed horizontally and fastened directly to columns of a hall; it results in the increase in structure stability and elimination of wall transoms
- variety of caisson sizes allows for selecting their height and depth depending on thermal parameters and required load-carrying capacity of walls
- horizontal lining of caissons ensures aesthetic appearance
- spacing of columns that form a support structure of caissons depends on height and static system of a building
- caissons filled with insulation material form a self-supporting structure for the facade

Trapezoidal sheet
- low-profiled trapezoidal sheet
- applied in objects without heating
- optimization of transom spacing
|
|
|
 |
Sheet + wool + sheet
- external low-profile trapezoidal sheet
- thermoblock (optional)
- distancing element from a cold-bent profile [optional]
- mineral wool batts on glass fiber tissue
- internal low-profile trapezoidal sheet
- optimization of transom spacing
