Aluminium is remarkable for the metal’s low density and for its ability to resist corrosion due to the phenomenon of passivation. Unlike some metals used for roofing and cladding, aluminium is well tolerated by plants and animals
InquiryThe decreasing density from bottom of top has adverse effect on the aluminium foam as a protective cladding, which agrees well with the findings in Li and Chang . Fig. 21 shows the failure modes of RC slabs in Events 2–6.
Inquiry2 The Appraisal of the Nu-Wall Aluminium Cladding Cavity System relies on the joinery meeting the requirements of NZS 4211 for the relevant Wind Zone, or wind pressure. Building Regulations New Zealand Building Code NZBC 3
InquiryAluminium cladding offers superb spanning capabilities as well as excellent structural performance. Alloyed aluminium can be as strong as steel at only a third of the weight. Compared to steel, aluminium is extremely lightweight
InquiryThe cladding was aluminium-faced, with a polyethylene core, according to one report. [14] Witness reports were contradictory as to direction of fire spread, with downward spread from the fall of burning cladding materials reported:
