A Thermally Efficient Shelf Angle System for Masonry Veneer Walls

砌体贴面为建筑外墙提供可靠、持久的环保。砌体贴面设计的一个组成部分是架子角，它提供结构支撑，并通过螺栓或固定在板边缘。通过这种方式，架子角将贴面与建筑主体连接起来，为传热创造了方便的桥梁。当隔热层被放置在建筑物主体的外部时，这座桥将不得不穿透隔热层并形成一座热桥。即将出台的新能源规范对外墙的有效热阻提出了越来越高的要求。依靠传统支撑系统的贴面系统的顺应性得不到保证。FERO Inc.是埃德蒙顿当地的一家公司，从事砌体配件制造和技术开发工作。FERO有兴趣开发一种创新的货架角度锚固系统，与传统替代品相比，它具有优越的热性能。该项目旨在开发一个架子角度系统，以提供足够的结构强度和最小的热桥接。

Masonry veneers provide reliable and durable environmental protection for the exterior walls of buildings. An integral part of the design of masonry veneer is a shelf angle, which provides structural support and is bolted or secured to a slab edge. In this way, the shelf angle links the veneer to the main body of the building, creating a convenient bridge for heat transfer. When thermal insulation is placed exterior to the main body of a building, this bridge will have to penetrate through the insulation and create a thermal bridge. Approaching new energy codes have higher and higher requirements on the effective thermal resistance of exterior walls. The compliance of veneer systems that rely on traditional support systems is not guaranteed. FERO Inc. is a local company in Edmonton that performs masonry accessories manufacturing work and technical development - FERO is interested in developing an innovative shelf angle anchoring system with superior thermal performance compared to conventional alternatives. This project aims to develop a shelf angle system that will provide sufficient structural strength and minimal thermal bridging.
