A facade is generally one exterior side of a building, usually, but not always, the front. It is a foreign loan word from the French façade, which means "frontage" or "face". (Wikipedia)
In architecture, the facade of a building is often the most important aspect from a design standpoint, as it sets the tone for the rest of the building. From the engineering perspective of a building, the facade is also of great importance due to its impact on energy efficiency.
Facade Structure Engineering is an important aspect for any building that can be both functional as well as aesthetically pleasing.
We help you source facade solutions that can be added to existing as well as new buildings. New façades can extend the life of buildings and a facade rework can be a significant cost saving exercise.
Our teams priorities will always be safety and practicality and we are always willing to go that extra mile.
