DURHAM
UNIVERSITY - EGG PROJECT
Main Contractor:
Heery
Architect: Ryder HKS
Date: 2003
Contract value to Hydram : £100,000
Facade:
Hydram manufactured 'ODIN' extruded aluminium
rainscreen tiles used as an alternative to a
traditional terracotta system. Tiles were
fabricated from extrusion and powder coated to
our clients requirements. This is a secret
fixing solution that uses a clip on fixing
method. This results in a system that is easy
and quick to fit with excellent durability and a
premier aesthetic finish.
Secondary Steelwork:
This system can be supported by various support
structures, in this instance a combination of
top hats, galvanised angles and channels were
used to support the tiles.
Features and Soffits:
Hydram also supplied various other trim details
including custom designed feature bands and
bullnoses.
For more information on the 'ODIN' extruded
rainscreen system please see datasheet
