Tender Application Support
Fassaden+Architektur+Technik take pride in offering an exclusive Tender Application Support service to a select group of top-tier clients. With a focus on precision and tailored solutions, we provide our esteemed clients with comprehensive assistance in preparing and submitting tender applications. Leveraging our expertise and industry insights, we ensure that their bids stand out in competitive environments. Our commitment to these clients goes beyond technical proficiency; it reflects our dedication to fostering enduring partnerships and delivering excellence at every stage of their projects.
Prototype Testing
At F+A+T we prioritize an innovative approach to consulting through our Prototype Testing Service, which revolves around virtual prototyping. By crafting fully resolved façade models during the conceptual phase, we empower our clients to discern the most cost-effective and risk-averse construction methods and procurement routes. This highly effective methodology enables informed decision-making in the early stages of design, resulting in substantial time and cost savings down the line.
Facade Engineering
F+A+T stands as a leading international façade engineering consultancy firm. Our distinguished team of professionals, comprising façade consultants, structural engineers, and building physicists, offers comprehensive assistance to building owners, developers, architects, and contractors across the globe. Our acclaim arises from our extensive engineering expertise, spanning every facet and phase of façade design, positioning us as the foremost authorities in pre-contract services.
Facade Design and Specification
Building Physics
Our engineering team employs proprietary, internally developed software plugins. This strategy empowers our building physicists to conduct thorough analyses of intricate envelope details at the outset of the design phase. Drawing upon our organization's vast internal expertise in three-dimensional condensation risk analysis, we engineer tailored and pragmatic façade system interfaces that satisfy both technical and commercial criteria. Through the application of our profound knowledge, we guarantee the successful creation of top-tier, efficient building envelopes.
Structural Engineering
Our team of certified structural engineers is led by seasoned professionals boasting extensive experience in the procurement, logistics, and installation of a diverse range of façade systems, including precast concrete and unitized curtain walls. This veteran leadership guarantees that our structural designs are not only constructible but also cost-effective. Our façade structures are meticulously crafted to accommodate a myriad of factors, including self-imposed loads, thermal expansion and contraction, movement of the primary building framework, as well as fabrication and installation tolerances. To ensure utmost accuracy and reliability, we harness cutting-edge finite element analysis (FEA) software packages for the structural assessment of glass and metal framework components, along with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software for wind analysis. By amalgamating state-of-the-art technology with our proficiency, we consistently deliver optimal and efficient structural solutions for our clients' building envelopes.
Thermal Analysis
Our highly proficient team of building physicists employs cutting-edge digital tools for comprehensive condensation risk and thermal performance analyses. We take immense pride in the precision and clarity of our documentation and presentation of findings. Through the utilization of virtual prototyping, we deliver lucid and easily understandable diagrams to engage all stakeholders throughout the building's design, construction, and operation phases. We steer clear of technical jargon, convoluted abbreviations, or intricate diagrams, prioritizing transparency and fostering comprehension among all involved parties. This approach not only contributes to the project's success but also cultivates trust and confidence among our valued clients.
