Al SendianTower
Due to the functional and aesthetic characteristics of HAVER Architectural Mesh, it offers versatile fields of applications in the architecture of multi-storey car parks. Both inside and outside, they convince with a noble appearance and meet the highest demands on safety, stability and weather resistance.
The stainless steel mesh EGLA-MONO 4791 was used for the Al Sendian Tower in Qatar to cover the four-storey parking garage of the office building. With one flat side the weave type EGLA-MONO appears as a uniform metal veil on large surfaces. Because of its homogenous appearance, it is often used. The special feature of the semi-transparent facade cladding of the Al Sendian Tower is the surface treatment of the wire mesh. A continuous oriental pattern was painted on every mesh elements.
With an open area of 60 %, the stainless steel wire mesh EGLA-MONO 4791 provides a natural ventilation of the parking garage. Due to the open area of the mesh, expensive ventilation systems can be avoided - this not only reduces energy costs but also has a positive effect on the environment. In addition, the open area of the wire mesh allows natural lighting of the car park interior.
Architectural wire mesh made of stainless steel is particularly robust, stable and durable. In addition to their use as façade cladding, they are also an effective fall protection as balustrade or railing infill. Haver & Boecker supplied 2.535 m² of painted wire mesh as ready-to-install mesh elements including the fastening system consisting of flat tension profiles, clevis bolts and pressure springs.
