ThermConX - Structural thermal break connection
for the construction Industry Combining the very latest high technology ceramic
alloy materials with leading edge computer aided design, this combination has
negated any requirement for continuous steel connection though the connection.
The new ThermConX ® Type A11-F66 from Archtechnik not only solves the problem
of thermal bridges at source but also retains the connections ability to take
load in compression, tension, and shear, and also cantilever moments, and twisting
torsion.
The thermal effectiveness of the high technology materials used in the ThermConX
connections give them a thermal efficiency of conduction of 0.035 W(Km) compared
with a normal conduction efficiency of steel of 47.5 W(Km) and with no loss
in their ability to transmit load. Due to the efficiency of the ThermConX to
halt heat energy transferring both ways, the problems of cold spots forming
in the walls and ceiling of the building, immediately around where the members
protrude through the insulated envelope, are not created. This eliminates the
age old problem of mould and mildew forming on the internal surfaces of the
building in these areas as the colder outside temperatures are conducted via
the cold bridge back into the building creating sections of internal surface
areas known as cold spots, when these areas come into contact with the warmer
moist air of the inside of the building the warmer, moist air gives up its water
in the form of condensation on the surface of the cold spot, this in turn forms
mould etc.
This unique invention allows the designer the continued freedom to attach items
to the outside (or externally) of a the building envelope or structure, while
at the same time securely fixing back these items to the building structure
of frame work which is contained within the insulative envelope of the building,
with out creating a cold bridge, in compliance with Part “L" of building regulations.
This unique invention:
the building, improving the living environment for the occupiers and reducing
the carbon foot print of the building.
be made between 2 or more members, these members could be any material but
are mostly likely to be metal, concrete or wood or any combination of these
materials.
through the thermal connection with no loss of efficiency of loading. Although
the Thermally broke connection allows the efficient transmission of forces
through the connection it does not allow the transmission of the thermal energy
or sound waves or any type of electrical current.
The ThermConX can be used when ever there would have been a thermal bridge
created, fixing back to the structure.
