Advantages

The Walltech Building System offers the following advantages:

• Increased design flexibility, especially in regard to detailed "cut-outs" and components
• Superior aesthetics, including a joint free finish and elimination of glancing light
• A variety of internal and external surface finishes can be achieved
• Eliminates the possibility of surface cracking, as wall surfaces are not load bearing
• Structural integrity assured and integrated into each design to suit individual project site conditions, wind loadings, etc
• Superior thermal efficiency to traditional materials, with every panel offering this rating, rather than just the external walls.
• Superior fire resistance to traditional coating and foam insulation materials
• Complies with BCA (Building Code of Australia) & other applicable acoustic standards
• Walls can be left unprotected on site for a reasonable period, and there is no interstitial condensation risk for finished buildings
• No possibility of "toxic mould"
• Complies with BCA (Building Code of Australia) & other applicable impact resistance standards
• All specified services and components are included in the delivered wall
• Future innovations are easily adopted into system
• Walls are fully documented and information is stored on easily accessible bar-codes
• Future tradesman and householders will know exactly where any services or components are located within each wall
• Fully recyclable components and finished product
• Decreased environmental impact, both direct and indirect
• Elimination of on-site building waste and dust, along with associated costs, space and OH & S implications
• Reduced panel & square metre weight
• Reduced crane time required on commercial sites
• No "bait" to attract vermin
• Walls can be disassembled, relocated and re-used or returned for recycling
• Accuracy, quality and reproducibility are guaranteed
• Reduces the opportunity for contractor or tradesman error
• Other trades can pre-build or design with confidence
• Reduces the need for on-site trades and cost items, including scaffolding, site sheds, etc
• Improves work site productivity
• Reduces vulnerability to trade skills shortages
• Improves site safety
• Decreases the period to "lock-up" and as a result reduces theft and vandalism
• Decreases project construction times
• Delivers total cost savings for each project
