PartnerThe facade system has already been successfully implemented in several buildings, just as in the postmodern house in Haselbach, Austria. KNAPP® is looking for partner who would like to use the FASCO® Facade System. It is ideally suited for garden room builders, wood and facade builders as well as for those who build prefabricated house.

FASCO® Facade SystemGlued Glass Elements for Wood-Glass Facades

Connecting your ideas . . .

Our futuristic construction material offers a low pri-mary energy demand of 209 kWh/m² compared to an aluminium-glass facade with 407 kWh/m². In ad-dition, the use of wood profiles instead of aluminium for the entire facade translates to a CO2 reduction of 43% (source: Prof. Bauer of Drees und Sommer; from a lecture at glasbau2011 in Dresden).On the technical side, there are stringent require-

ments on the effect of structural reinforcement of large glass panels. To solve this, in the case of glued wood-glass facades, the glass assumes the static load-bearing function. KNAPP® developed that FASCO® profile from glass-fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP). The suitability of the FASCO® profile has been proven through tests performed by the Austri-an Institute of Wood Research.

FASCO® is suitable for two applications:I Non-bearing fixed glazing that does not limit the glass dimensions and structural class, starting with a visual width of 60 mm.I Static bearing glazing for reinforcing the structure (implemented according to the KNAPP® Manual, in Germany with a permit in individual cases) with a visual width of 80 mm due to the load. Design posts offer a very elegant solution for this.

The following points are based on the KNAPP® Manual, which was issued by the Austrian Institute of Wood Research for the use of wood-glass composite elements with a static function. Non-bearing fixed glazing is not subject to any of these limitations.

I Ceiling height (height of a floor) construction of the fixed glazing.I No more than two floors may be reinforced with glazing.I Various formats of the glass elements are permissible, the most narrow and the most wide glass elements are measured.I Maximum length of the longer edge of the glass element: 3.5 metres I Minimum length of the shorter edge of the glass element: 1.0 metreI Length/height ration of the glass element: L:H = (1:1) to (2:1)

As a family-owned business, we have been the market specialist for connecting systems for timber structures for 25 years. With the new FASCO® Facade System, we are thrilled to present you with a “small revolution”. Starting as a research project with the Austrian Institute of Wood Research (Holzforschung Austria) on the topic of “Glued Glazing Systems”, we developed a system that effectively uses the load-bearing characteristics of wood and glass as a rein-forcing structural element and is also extraordinarily economical.The following information, drawings and images are based on a postmodern house in Lower Austria built in the fall of 2011. This marked the first time the

FASCO® Facade System was used. The result offers impressively demonstrates that perfect looks, re-liable static and rational installation are capable of being united. All project participants were amazed by the implementation of the construction project.

We will keep you informed on our website. Your KNAPP® team wishes you all the best in fulfilling your ideas and projects.

Sincerely,

Friedrich Knapp
