STRUCTURAL BONDING |
SILICONE POINTING |
SPECIALIST GLAZING |
|
Structural silicone glazing (SSG) is the use of specific silicones to
bond glass and metal panels to the structure, via a metallic sub
frame, without mechanical fixation. |
|
An SSG system can be designed to withstand live loads, wind loads,
(line loads and in some circumstances dead loads)
circumstances dead loads) (weight of panels and imposed loadings). |
|
Current systems in use include 4 sided and 2 sided. |
|
Please note that the insulated glass units also require to be silicone
sealed. |
|
Silicone-bonded system provides
unsurpassed weather ability and UV resistance. |
|
Silicone has excellent levels of adhesion,
movement capability and wide service temperature (from - 40°c to +
150°c). |
|
The silicone itself is able to resist wind
load, dead load and thermal dilation. |
|
SSG offers almost unlimited design
versatility and has transformed the skyline of the cities across the
world in the last two decades. |
|
Architects and clients are always looking
for larger expanses of glass with limited framing, structural bonding
stainless steal, aluminium, galvanized steel & steel angles of glass
panels gives a seamless look from outside with the fixing to the main
structure being carried out from the inside. |
|
| Silicone sealants improve
air and weather tightness of a structure and also support the panels
and increase the rigidity of the facade. |
| The silicone provides a
flexible rubber anchorage tat absorbs movements between materials from
thermal or even seismic loading. |
| Gsl Mastics use Dow
Corning 993 structural silicone glazed sealant almost exclusively. |
| Dow Corning 993 is a two
part, high performance, neutral curing silicone sealant designed
specifically for the structural bonding of glass, metal, and other
building components. |
| It is also used to adhere
stiffening elements to building panels and for other adhesives
applications. |
| The sealant offers
excellent adhesion to wide range of substrates including enamelled and
reflective glass, anodised and coated aluminium and stainless steel
profiles. |
| It also exhibits
excellent weathering characteristics and high resistance to UV
radiation, heat and humidity as well as good resistance to fire. |
| Dow Corning 993 also has
superior static load capability, which enables a smaller joint, and
had been tested for bomb blast and safety glazing. |
