Solutions For Facades 80 London Landmarks

Sika Facade Systems

Sika
Worldwide
Sikas faade products have a long history in London. Sikaflex

Polyurethane and SikaMembran EPDM sheet membranes have
been well established in the UK facade market. Nevertheless
before 2004 Sika did not play an important in structural glazing
faades. This changed when Sika acquired the engineering
silicone business from Wacker-Chemie GmbH in 2004. Wackers
structural glazing adhesive Elastosil SG-500 had already been
used for more than 10 years by the renowned curtain wall
fabricators Josef Gartner and Schmidlin AG. Sika then composed
a unique product portfolio around the silicone products, and
renamed Elastosil into Sikasil. This comprehensive product
range together with the competent technical service in the Sika
Faade Competence Centre in Switzerland and the strong onsite service in UK made Sika THE partner for sealing, bonding
and water-proofing in Londons glass facades.
Sika is a globally active company supplying the specialty chemicals markets. It is a leader in processing materials used in sealing,
bonding, damping, reinforcing and protecting load-bearing structures in construction (buildings and infrastructure construction)
and in industry (vehicle, building component and equipment production).
Sikas product lines feature high-quality concrete admixtures, specialty mortars, sealants and adhesives, damping and reinforcing
materials, structural strengthening systems, industrial flooring and membranes. Subsidiaries in more than 70 countries worldwide
and approximately 12,900 employees link customers directly to Sika.

Facades Bonding and Sealing with Sikasil SG and WS

Project Requirements
In structural sealant glazing UV and weathering resistant silicone
adhesives and compatible weather sealants are state of the art technologies. The worlds leading curtain wall fabricators requested the
most durable and reliable products.
Sika Solution
Sika FFI Competence Centre in Switzerland has tested the adhesion
and compatibility of Sikasil SG-500 (complying with ETAG 002) and
Sikasil WS-605 S (classified ISO 11600 F&G 25 LM) with all materials
in contact with the silicones prior to any application in these high rise
buildings. For perfect compatibility Sika even provides the Sika
Spacer Tape HD.

Project Description
The light sculpture on top of the new wing of the BBC Broadcasting House building, was inaugurated on June 18, 2008 by
Secretary-General of the United Nations, Ban Ki-moon, and
is dedicated to the memory of journalists killed in the line of
work.
The construction requested a durable, high-strength adhesive
for the save bonding of the curved glass elements onto the
steel skeleton.

Sika Solution
The SikaMembran system consists of a
set of EPDM membranes and an adhesive
suitable for a durable water-/vapour-proofing

substrates. The easy and fast application of
the thin sheet membranes is outstanding.

Facade Cladding with

For these projects, the contractors required a
striking white all over aesthetic with flawless
facade without a single fastener to diminish
the appearance.
Sika Solution
SikaTack Panel elastic bonding technology
requires no screws or brackets and grants a
timesaving application. Temporarily
held in place using special double-sided
adhesive tape, SikaTack Panel adhesive
bonds the panel firmly but stress free to the
carrier frame (no buckling). Vapour proofing
of the ventilated facade ideally is done with
SikaMembran system.

One New Change

Architect: Ateliers Jean Nouvel
Insulating Glass: Bischof Glas BGT, DE
In high-performance energy-saving glass
facades the insulating glass units must be
Argon-filled. So far this was a domain of
capped curtain wall systems and standard
windows with PU and PS secondary sealants,
because for structural sealant glazing only
silicone sealants are approved. But silicones
were regarded as not suitable for Argon-filled
IG units.

Sika Solution
With the development of the high-modulus
silicone secondary sealant Sikasil IG-25 HM
Plus Argon loss rates as low as 0.5% per
year are achievable, resulting in a service
life of the IG unit of at least 30 years. For
the projects above Sikasil SG, IG, WS and
even Sika Spacer Tape HD in a particular
shade of grey have been created to meet the
architects expectations.

Glass balustrades should be fixed to the floor

with the lowest stress possible on the glass
pane. But mechanical fasteners transfer high
punctual stress to the glass. Thicker glass
panels are the consequence.

The bottom glass edge is embedded in the

floor with self-levelling, high-strength fastcuring 2-part PU system SikaForce 7710 or
Sika Icosit KC 340/7, resulting in uniform
stress distribution and thus reduction of high
punctual stress. In out-door applications a
bead of Sikasil WS-605 S protects the PU
against UV radiation.
