NVELOPE s Online Project Checklist

Architects simply need to access the Project Checklist section at www.nvelope.com and complete the simple two step data entry process. This demands project information on façade type, façade weight, average panel size, building height and storey height, substrate type, fixing method and cladding zone. They can then submit this information together with their elevation and plan AutoCAD drawings. NVELOPE’s technical support team will provide a full Project Checklist response detailing the static calculations and setting out information for the support system, thermal calculations and indicative m2 price.

“Every façade is different,” says Mike Smith, Sales and Marketing Director at NVELOPE. “The requirements for each façade depend on a variety of factors, such as local wind loads, façade height, the fixing substrate, the selected cladding material and the cladding zone. Our Project Checklist design and pricing software will significantly speed up the cladding specification process for architects, providing them with a detailed design to meet their precise requirements. No other company in rainscreen cladding support systems can offer such a reliable, precise and time-saving service.”
