Dynamic Support
Façade innovator, T.I. Dynamic Facades, has launched Dynamic Support, a free technical assistance service for specifiers and contractors. From planning through to installation, Dynamic Support will help maximise design impact while maintaining the affordability and practicality of a façade system.
Developed in response to increased demand for design reviews, Dynamic Support gives specifiers free access to the technical services team at T.I. Dynamic Facades, who can provide expert guidance on creating practical and striking building envelopes, and then see this through to on-site completion. From a budget perspective, Dynamic Support also offers the opportunity for a value engineering consultation. A number of developments have already benefited from this exercise, achieving significant cost and efficiency savings by, for example, moving from a twin skin terracotta rainscreen to a more cost effective single skin system. On-site Dynamic Support is available on all T.I. Dynamic Facades systems, including Aerolite, the lightweight stone façade and the recently launched URBANGLASS, a man-made homogenous material with the contemporary aesthetics of natural stone or glass. When the materials are delivered to site, a member of the Dynamic Support team is available to provide training on installing and handling the system, ensuring complete compliance with health and safety guidelines. This technical training covers all façade panels as well as the full range of carrier rails provided by T.I. Dynamic Facades.
Phil Harwood, technical manager, T.I. Dynamic Facades, comments: “Specifiers have more choice than ever with façade materials and finishes. While this facilitates a new generation of exterior envelope design, in reality these are not always practical to achieve. That’s where Dynamic Support comes in. We can review plans at design stage to make them more site-friendly and cost effective, as well as actually be on-site to provide guidance when the systems are being installed.”
