Waterproofing and Engineering
Rainscreen facade systems have site-specific performance requirements around wind loads, seismic, weather resistance and thermal performance. Factors such as wind region, height above ground, seismic zone and building class impact on these requirements including the construction type.
Each component of the buildout (Sculptform and other systems) targets specific performance requirements from the NCC 2019, or augments another component’s performance. Additionally, each of the components (Sculptform and other systems) are required to meet the fire resistance performance requirements of Section C. As such, given the complexity of design, a rainscreen facade system typically follows a Performance Solution path to compliancy.
We recommend the early engagement of facade and fire engineers to keep your project on track.

Bushfire Attack Level (BAL)
Aluminium, deemed non-combustible per AS 1530.1 and AS 1530.3, is suitable for BAL 12.5 and BAL 19 without any additional inclusions in reference to AS 3959.
For BAL 29, 40 and FZ, compliancy can be achieved through meeting the FRL requirements in clause 9.4.1c of AS 3959. Contact us for more information.
Span Charts
To simplify the design process we have worked with Arup to develop span charts for your facade engineer. This is to simplify the review process against the anticipated wind loads of the project.
The span table accommodates different configurations, such as single or multiple spans, with overhang considerations as well as profile type. It also includes a tutorial on how to use the tables, as well as the engineering assumptions. To view our spans charts for Click-on Cladding, download our Product Technical Datasheet.
Curved walls and ceilings
The Click-on Cladding system can be used to create both convex and concave curves using our specially designed mounting track. The track is provided to site flexible and fitted to a curved form on-site.
The minimum and maximum radius achievable is dictated by the profile of the board, with smaller boards being able to fit a tighter radius. See the table below for more information or contact us to discuss custom sequences and how they can fit your project.

Orientation
Can be used horizontally or vertical.
Length Options
Click-on Cladding boards are available in lengths of up to 6m.
Thermal Expansion
Our cladding boards are 100% aluminium, with the system designed to accommodate thermal expansion. This expansion occurs over the length of the board, with the following data being calculated as a guide. These examples of thermal expansion are based on cladding boards of 4m and 6m being installed in winter at 0°C and then heated to 50°C in summer.
Board Length | Expansion (in board length) |
---|---|
4m | 4.6mm |
6m | 6.9mm |

Maintenance and cleaning
Aluminium is a relatively low maintenance solution for any application. Maintenance largely depends on the degree of exposure, location of the project, and the coating used. Generally, no cleaning is required; however, a typical schedule could include a visual inspection every 12 months to ensure there are no adverse environmental effects.
Surface dirt/dust, spider webs, bird droppings, rain spots and other debris, while not harmful can be unattractive and reduce the visual impact. A soft bristle broom or brush can be used to wipe the facade. Water can be used to aid the process but do not use harsh chemical cleaners as in some cases, coated layers can be removed.
