The terracotta ventilated support system for 18mm panels is a
building enclosure system that uses 18mm thick terracotta panels as
the exterior finish, combined with a metal support frame and
ventilation cavity. The system achieves air circulation through
open joints or ventilators, combining both decorative and
functional properties, and is a common form of modern facade.
System Composition
18mm terracotta panel,made of natural clay fired at high
temperature, thickness 18mm (both strength and lightness)
Main rails: usually made of aluminum alloy (6063-T5/T6) or hot-dip
galvanized steel, arranged vertically, bear the main load
Secondary rails: horizontal aluminum alloy component, forming a
grid frame with the main rail
Connector:Stainless steel pendant (such as SE type, back bolt type)
and seismic sliding support (allowing ±15mm displacement)
Features:
Strong points: Terracotta panels are UV-resistant, acid-resistant,
and have good color stability. They are not easy to fade after
long-term use.18mm thickness panel provides high impact and wind
pressure resistance, suitable for harsh climate areas.The
ventilation cavity forms a "chimney effect", which promotes the
discharge of hot air in summer and reduces the building's cooling
load; in winter, it can be combined with an insulation layer to
reduce the risk of condensation.
Open-style system design avoids water accumulation and reduces
mildew growth; maintenance costs is relatively low .
Weak points:
The depth of the ventilation cavity (usually 100-300mm), drainage
path and seismic joints need to be accurately calculated, otherwise
the performance may be affected.Open joints need to control the
width (usually 5-10mm) to prevent wind and rain penetration, and
additional waterproof lining may be required.
Applications:
This terracotta ventilated facade support system show good
performance in energy-saving and ventilation design. The cavity
structure promotes air convection, reduces the building surface
temperature in summer (can reduce air conditioning load by about
20%), and forms an insulation layer in winter.Each terracotta panel
is fixed independently, which is easy to replace when damaged,
reducing maintenance costs.
The terracott panel can provide matte, glazed and other surface
treatments, with various colors (red, gray, white, etc.), and
supports special-shaped cutting.
