FX Estrutural Facade
Structural Facade System

System Features

FX is a state-of-the-art minimalist facade system composed of a set of profiles and accessories with a visible section of 45 mm both inside and outside, allowing the execution of various structures according to the latest architectural trends, always with the highest reliability and performance.

The FX system enables the execution of 5 structural versions:
• FX Inverted Wall;
• FX Elliptical Cover;
• FX Semi-Structural;
• FX Structural;
• FX Interlocking.

In this FX system typology, the installation of glass is carried out using frames in which a specially anodized profile is placed to allow the adhesion of structural silicone, thus providing an effect similar to externally bonded glass.

The projecting opening is achieved through stainless steel hinges with a resistance of 180 kg. Both the fixed and projecting leaves are executed with the same perimeter profile, making their distinction imperceptible from the exterior.

The bar that receives the glass adhesion must have a special anodization (>20 µm), necessary to ensure perfect adhesion of the glass with structural silicone.

Aluminum Profiles

The aluminum profiles are extruded in 6060 aluminum alloy for architecture according to the NP EN 12020-02 standard.

Profiles with thermal break obtained by inserting polyamide rods reinforced with 25% glass fiber.

Structure

• Mullions and transoms of 45 mm with various spans from 15 mm to 250 mm to meet the inertia requirements of each project.
• Connection between mullions and transoms through unions with straight cuts of the profiles without machining.
• The mullions and transoms feature drainage and ventilation channels that, together with an EPDM gasket system, ensure excellent watertightness and permeability.
• The mullions are fixed to the main structure using specially dimensioned parts.
• Possibility of oblique transoms up to 45°.
