Specifying rainscreen cladding is a perpetual challenge for architects, balancing aesthetic goals, functional performance and regulatory compliance.
Modern fibre cement rainscreen cladding systems should comply and exceed strict fire safety regulations, ensure proper ventilation to manage moisture and condensation, and achieve energy efficiency and sustainability targets.
Adding to this complexity is the need to integrate the chosen cladding seamlessly into diverse building designs, from contemporary commercial facades to traditional residential developments, while adhering to tight project timelines and budgets.
Cedral’s latest CPD presentation “Ventilated Fibre Cement Rainscreen Cladding: Design Principles and Project Integration” has been designed to give architects practical guidance and design inspiration to ensure project success.
The learning objectives from the CPD will simplify rainscreen cladding specification, reduce risk and realise your aesthetic vision. Topics covered include:
- History and performance characteristics of fibre cement
- Key principles of rainscreen cladding; including the importance of ventilation and the benefits it brings to buildings
- Specification support including installation options, technical support, building regulations, fire performance and NBS management
- Project integration; including aesthetic options and functionality
- Sustainable considerations
