Cavity Barriers Layout Part 3. Cavity Closers around Openings

This course looks at cavity closers as a mean of compartmentation around windows and doors in accordance with the current normative base (2020). The façade type is a rainscreen cladding with punched openings. The case study areas include zones of hypothetical façade bay with balconies, parapets and corners. The compliance of the façade was achieved with all standard systems that are available in most profile system suppliers. Detail drawings, videos and explanatory clips explain buildability, performance, compliance and assembly-specific aspects, such as stacked floor-to-ceiling windows.
