Description (French)
Projet de conversion du métal en plastique visant à réduire les émissions de CO2 et le poids des barres métalliques en Z utilisées dans la construction de logements et d’immeubles de faible hauteur. Les barres en Z sont utilisées pour soutenir l’isolation extérieure et le bardage tout en créant une lame d’air entre le mur et le revêtement extérieur. La barre en Z en plastique élimine également le besoin d’un manchon isolant en plastique placé sur le composant métallique utilisé comme rupture thermique.
