Description
Rustication, meaning creation of decorative grooves in the façade, is an architectural treatment, already common in ancient times. Currently, this method has been used successfully in the modern architectural form of the buildings erected.
Rustication improves the visual effect of the façade, increases its aesthetic value, introduces divisions that refine and make an even extremely monotonous and plain façade interesting.
The most important effect of rustication (in case of horizontal rustications) is causing the optical effect of „lowering” the building.
Assembly: Groove beads are available in four commonly used widths: 10 mm, 20 mm, 30 mm, 50 mm. Depth of groove beads is 20 mm, except for groove beads BP11 H1, where the depth is 10 mm.
PVC groove beads are used for façades based both on mineral wool and polystyrene as long as the colour of the polystyrene façade does not have a high absorption coefficient of solar energy, which causes a strong warming of the façade surface and shrinkage of expanded polystyrene up to 15%.
Groove beads are available in a version with mesh in four commonly used widths: 10 mm, 20 mm, 30 mm, 50 mm. The „VERTEX” brand fibreglass mesh is permanently mounted (using ultrasonic welding, without glue) longitudinally on both sides of the rustication. Mesh width is 2 x 100 mm.
On special order it is possible to make the rustications in any colour and in any oval shape for oval façades.
