latest EN requirements.
Schüco ALB - Solar Shading
Schüco ALB, a range of large louvre solar shading
systems is now available from Schüco. It is an integrated extension
of Schüco’s curtain walling system – although it may be used on any
type of building façade.
Schüco ALB is available with a choice of
aluminium or glass louvre blades in a variety of shapes, widths and
lengths.
The Schüco ALB system offers glass louvres with
either flat glass or curved laminated glass. One advantage of using
glass is that it lends new interest to the external façade through
becoming reflective, transparent or translucent depending upon the
strength and direction of the sun.
The louvre blades in a Schüco ALB system can be
either fixed (Passive) or movable (Active). Linked to an integrated
building management programme, Schüco ALB Active can contribute
significantly to the energy efficiency of a building.
The louvre blades can be mounted horizontally,
vertically or even diagonally depending upon the orientation of a
building and prevailing weather conditions. It can also be used as a
kind of veranda with the blades mounted on cantilevered outriggers
projecting at right angles from the façade.
One particularly interesting design development
is that thanks to innovative Schüco technology, it is possible for
the blades to be curved in the lateral plane, allowing them to
follow the perimeter of curved façades. This is a design first and
offers architects significant extra freedom for creative expression.
