This page contains useful and practical suggestions based on thirty years of direct experience on the ground. This guide will help you to install the ventilated façade perfectly and in full compliance with all current regulations.
Layout of the ventilated façade: 1deg rule

installation is not something that can be done in a flash. It is important to follow a plan or a technical structure scheme with clearly defined and detailed instructions on how to use all components, and what type of connection or fastening is required. If you don't have instructions that are developed by professionals to rely on, it is easy for to make multiple mistakes while installing a ventilated façade. Aliva's executive design for a ventilated façade addresses this critical aspect by offering targeted technical assistance through a dedicated staff.

The 2deg rule is a big mistake that should not be made

It is important to verify the status of the supports to which the ventilated façade system will be attached. It is important to check that the facade system is sturdy and free of defects. The reliability of the final product is what we must and can add to every project in the construction industry. It is essential to perform physical tests or "pull out" tests in order to get real evaluations about the tightness or strength of the wall where the facade will anchor.
Without these checks, and without any pre-treatments, installing the ventilated façade will compromise stability and durability of the entire facade system.

The ventilated façade must be insulated thermo-acoustically according to the 3deg rule

The insulation board must be correctly laid and no visible joints must exist. If necessary, they must be covered with foam or insulation material of the same kind as the panel. Panels must be installed to maintain the perfect continuity of insulation, ensuring that the thermal performance and durability of the casing are maintained. Attention should also be paid to the tiling stage. The fixing dowels need to have enough length to pass through the insulation and are suitable for the wall support or structure they will anchor.

The key to the facade's substructure is the 4deg rule

The ventilated façade is made up of mechanical components, cladding panels, and substructure loads. Each component has its own dimensions, tolerances in millimeters, and loads. The components need to be assembled using exact references for verticality and horizontality. Otherwise, the edges tend to "open" up as you go higher. Local deviations from the verticality (even a few millimeters) can create unwanted aesthetic effects. This is especially true on sunny days.
