CREATIVE CABLE AND MESH SOLUTIONS
Stainless steel cables and cable meshes are a light and transparent possibility of falling protection at façades. Due to the high transparency a comprehensive protection without or with only low reduction of view and light transmission is possible. In contrast to massive building wraps they can also be used in light building architecture because of the low weight.
Especially at older and listed buildings, it may happen that the material of the façade becomes porous and that parts start to fall down. To avoid hazards to pedestrians and passing cars, an X-TEND stainless steel cable mesh can be installed to prevent the parts from falling down. Like this it offers safety on the one hand and on the other hand maintains the optic of the façade due to its high transparency.
The fly in protection protects especially against birds and prevents them from reaching areas where they are unwished or pose a threat.
Sometimes, combined mesh directions and/or widths are used in façade safety. They can be connected with the help of an intermediate cable or linked directly with each other. Safety regulations cause these combinations of meshes. As replacement for balustrades, the meshes have to fulfil the regulations for balustrades up to the height that is prescribed for balustrades. On top of that, the mesh widths can be taller what enables a higher transparency and like this a better view as well as more openness.

At airports, radar systems are used for flight safety. To avoid disruptions of these systems, the design of the façades of the surrounding buildings has to consider that doubling or direct reflections of the radiation shall not occur. Therefore, a slope of the façade is recommended to deflect radiation into the ground. Furthermore, round façade elements are preferred as they redirect radiation into many different directions instead of reflecting them due to their shape. The stainless steel wire rope nets of Carl Stahl ARC fulfil these requirements with their round cable geometry and can be adapted easily due to the variable mesh widths and angles. An expert report of EADS Deutschland GmbH confirms that.
