 The zenithal illumination is that which comes from above, from the sky (zenith). Very useful for large spaces that can not be adequately lit by windows, skylights are a widely used device for providing a pleasant, diffuse light. Generally, care is taken to prevent direct entry of sunlight; The openings must be well designed so that they do not overheat the space of allow water infiltration.

 Over the past decade, there has been significant increase in façade fires. After tragedies like Grenfell Tower in London and dozens of others all over the world, discussions regarding the combustibility of faced materials, and the ambiguities of the present regulations, are everywhere. While it is necessary to look into the matter in detail, it is imperative for every person in the industry to understand the contributing factors behind buildings’ fire hazards. Effisus has launched a non-combustible, waterproof, breathable membrane for facades – Effisus FR A2-s1, d0 Class. An alternative to the combustible breathable membranes currently used on facades everywhere, this product is the one and only A2 fire-rated waterproof membrane. | |
