Insite Facades Ltd ENCLAD EN05-FF Rainscreen Support System

Designed to span floor to floor (FF) in applications.

The following information has been provided by Insite Facades Ltd ENCLAD demonstrating how this product complies with the Building Product Information Requirements.

Product Description

The ENCLADTM EN05-FF engineered rainscreen support system is designed to span floor to floor (FF) in applications where there are no structural load bearing walls to fix mid-span brackets to.

The brackets are generally fixed to steel/concrete at slab locations and the vertical rail is engineered to take the cladding loads with no mid-span support.

EN05-FF consists of an engineered grip slide bracket which allows the vertical cladding support rail to be adjusted in and out so the system can easily accommodate building tolerances without the need for packers. The cladding panels can be prefabricated offsite and hooked on to a pin within the vertical rail for speed of installation onsite or a box section can be used for direct fix cladding panels.

The support system can be used in conjunction with different rainscreen cladding types inclusive of:

Metal cladding
High Pressure Laminates
Porcelain
GRC
*Terracotta

*Bespoke vertical rails can be made to suit cladding type required.

New Zealand Building Code (NZBC)

The product will, if employed in accordance with the supplier's installation and maintenance requirements, assist with meeting the following provisions of the building code:

Clause B1 Structure: Performance B1.3.1, B1.3.2, B1.3.3(f), B1.3.3(h), B1.3.3(m), B1.3.4
NZBC B1 Structure – B1.3.1, B1.3.2, B1.3.3, B.1.3.4

Compliance: B1/VM1 (NZS1170), B1/AS1 (NZS4223 Part 1, 3 & 4)

Insite Facades Ltd has engineered our product to maximum panel deflections of 1/60 under SLS loading.

ENCLAD™ RAINSCREEN SUPPORT SYSTEMS are extruded from 3mm solid aluminium and incorporate slotted windload and fixed deadload connections fixed at required centres for loadings to NZS1170 supporting extruded frames with a maximum deflection span of 250 or a maximum ±20mm.
Clause B2 Durability: Performance B2.3.1(b)
NZBC Clause B2 Durability – B2.3.1

Compliance: B2/VM1 (In service history)

ENCLAD™ RAINSCREEN SUPPORT SYSTEMS extrusions are Duralloy powdercoated for enhanced durability. Unpainted stainless-steel fixings will be provided in all exposed application 316 grade where visible, 304 grade where weathered but not exposed, and galvanised on internal faces.
Clause C3 Fire affecting areas beyond the fire source: Performance C3.5, C3.6, C3.7
NZBC Clause C3 Fire affecting areas beyond the source – C3.5, C3.6, C3.7

Compliance: Classified as non-combustible materials.

While we are not fire engineers and do not engage in the fire design of buildings, our products can be tailored to support compliance with clause c3. We recommend collaborating with a fire engineer to ensure proper customisation and adherence to fire safety requirements.

ENCLAD™ RAINSCREEN SUPPORT SYSTEMS are extruded from 3mm solid aluminium with coating thickness of less than 1mm. They can accommodate fire stops vertically and horizontally in cavity zone.
Clause E2 External moisture: Performance E2.3.2, E2.3.5, E2.3.7
NZBC Clause E2 External Moisture – E2.3.2, E2.3.5, E2.3.7

Our systems may include perforations or open jointed designs. The critical weathering line relies on the design and integrity of the Rigid Air Barrier (RAB) with fully sealed joints installed by others to BRANZ recommended detail. We recommend the use of self-adhered vapour permeable air barrier membranes which Insite Facades can provide and install if required.

Product Criteria

Design requirements

Must be engineered, designed and supplied by Insite Facades / Thermosash Group approved contractors.
Insite Facades Ltd has engineered our product to maximum panel deflections of 1/60 for visible cladding under SLS loading, which equates to NZS 4223.
The critical weathering line relies on the design and integrity of the Rigid Air Barrier (RAB) with fully sealed joints installed by others.

Installation requirements

Must be installed by an approved Insite Facades / Thermosash Group Installer.
We require the timber /support structure (dwangs and structural nogs) to be positioned to suit our panel set-out for fixing purposes free of charge to Insite Facades Ltd. This structure must be adequate for the standard fixings/loadings that will be imposed upon it by our products.

Maintenance requirements

Cleaning is required in conjunction with Thermosash Group cleaning operations of the external façade, glass and painted aluminium components. Any repair work or servicing / maintenance of mechanical components must be undertaken by Insite Facades or Thermosash Group representatives.

Regular cleaning to A.A.M.A. 610-1-1979 standard (minimum requirement at no less than 4 monthly intervals) and servicing/maintenance of mechanical components.

Annual maintenance inspections should be carried out to ensure that ventilation and drainage pathways remain clear, that rainwater goods are complete and in good order, and that flashings, seals and fastenings are in place and secure. Damaged panels should be replaced as soon as is practicable, following the installer’s instructions and observing all necessary health and safety precautions.

A maintenance manual is provided on completion of a project.
