Abstract
En 中文
A ventilated facade can be understood as a cladding system fixed to the external wall of the building using mechanical anchor points. The ventilated facade, in addition to its aesthetic effect, improves the thermal (thermal comfort), acoustic and energy efficiency performance of the building. The ventilated facade (or facade) system (VFS) is a construction alternative using non-adhered industrialised elements. Its use has increased substantially in recent years and it has been chosen by architects as a suitable solution for retrofitting existing buildings and for buildings to be built. It is an envelope solution that is suitable for a variety of building types, climates and design configurations. The influence of VFS on the thermal, energy and acoustic performance of buildings is a current topic of research and can be characterised as a sustainable solution in the construction industry. The aim of this article is to present the state of the art of current literature on the application of VFS technologies, in terms of thermal, energy and acoustic analysis, the performance of different coatings applied, fixing systems and the advantages and disadvantages of the system, in order to provide guidelines for future studies and projects.
