6 The Multifaçades TM SYSTEM Proven system performance Improved thermal performance For surface configurations comprising 1/3 transparent using thermal insulating glass and 1/3 opaque using semi-rigid, 127 mm wool board insulation. The U-value is estimated to be 24% more efficient than a curtain wall of similar configuration Thermal performance was simulated using Therm 6.3 simulation software. Ti = 21 C, Te = -30 C Improved acoustic control Allows for greater soundproofing between floors Improved weathertightness Air and water tightness optimized by a continuous air and vapor barrier Rain screen Diverts rainwater runoff toward the exterior and ensures pressure equalization. Water penetration resistance at differential pressure is 1.2 kpa LEED Points Prefabricated, removable and recoverable panels. Noble, recyclable materials.
