Test facility
CSTB
On this testing site, we assess the in situ replacement, and e-coating of panels subsequent to the integration of panels that have undergone accelerated aging tests.
The idea is to directly compare time for installation, mechanical behaviour, aesthetical aspects, and hygrothermal performance of the ventilated façade concept after it has been positively assessed with regards to fire safety in the dedicated lab at Tecnalia.
KUBIK by Tecnalia is a full-scale R&D test facility for the development of new concepts, products and services in order to improve energy efficiency in buildings. KUBIK offers a flexible infrastructure able to build realistic scenarios with different building components and systems. This permits not only in-service performance assessment but also help to develop and to evaluate assembly and removal procedures.
