COMMERCIAL BUILDING EXTERIOR RETRO-FIT
Jobsite: Downtown Miami, Florida
Fully Permitted and Inspected by City of Miami and
Miami-Dade Building Dept.
2007
This project is constructed with Wellbilt International’s Miami-Dade Approved ‘Sure-Board Wall Panels’, complying with the State of Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone of 146-mph sustained wind-loads with an additional 20% increase for gusts!
This Commercial Building had damage to its mirrored-glass curtain walls. After much research, the most cost effective alternative to repair this building was to use the ‘Sure-Board Wall Panels’ for its curtain walls.
‘Sure-Board Wall Panels’ are lightweight, may be easily supported by angle-irons fastened to existing slab, eliminating costly additional footings. Angle-irons may also be fastened to other floor levels for structural installation.
Sure-Board Wall Panel’s ‘Open Construction’ enables fast installation to existing structure.
