SHADING SYSTEMS -

ARCHITECTURAL BRIEF

An ideal solution to any external feature will protect against the weather while attached to the

outside of the facade, mitigating penetrations through the facade. G.James use light weight,

corrosion resistant panelized systems that are pre assembled in the factory. They are designed to

easily attach to framing on site prior to facade panel install. Consideration is given to safe handling,

transportation and quick fixing methods that include removal for replacement or reglazing purposes

of the panel it attaches to.

There are 3 types of solar control systems:

1) Horizontal Projecting Sun Shades provide the best shading for high sun (eg on the North

elevation of a building).

2) Vertical Projecting Sun Blades provide best shading for low sun (eg on the East or West

elevation of a building).

3) Vertical Screens oriented parallel to the building facade are used for intensive shading or

as an architectural feature.

Vertical Parallel Screens

Typically constructed with a perforated aluminium screen, this type

of shading system can provide significant privacy or shading from

sunlight in all directions. Used intelligently, they take advantage of

daylight to provide heavy visual massing to the building exterior,

appearing almost solid, yet can have surprisingly minimal disruption

to views from the building interior. Innovative use of these screens

can create striking architectural features to buildings.

Typically these vertical parallel screens incorporate a maintenance

walkway, generally 600mm wide between the façade and screen.

This dictates the critical consideration for the design of its minimalist

supporting structure.

The designs of these screens are generally bespoke to suit

individual projects.

Please contact G.James Commercial Contracting division to take benefit of G.James extensive

experience and custom design expertise for a successful outcome with your building's specific

shading system.

Sun shades (horizontal) >

and sun blades (vertical) on

the same facade can be

used to great effect.

Vertical screens can be

adapted to produce some

visually stunning results as in

this project, where a ribbon

effect was incorporated:
