Sheng Lai Outdoor Leisure Company -- Do you know the advantages and design points of sunshades?

Author:


If you encounter seasons with excessive rain or strong sunlight, excessive gardening can be counterproductive. In such cases, it is necessary to design a sunshade. The canopy has a full-range external shading function, which can completely block ultraviolet radiation and lower the indoor temperature. Below, we introduce the advantages and design points of sunshade products.

Advantages of sunshade products:

1. Sunshades have a full-range external shading function, completely blocking ultraviolet radiation, lowering indoor temperature, and reducing air conditioning load;

2. Sunshades are energy-efficient. From the perspective of energy saving and environmental protection, sunshades are extremely significant;

3. Sunshade fabrics have special UV-resistant functions, and sunshades offer a wide variety of colors for users to choose from.

Design points of sunshades:

1. When buildings have high standards, shading measures should be adopted to meet the following conditions.

(1) Indoor (external) temperature reaches or exceeds 29℃;

(2) Solar radiation intensity is greater than 240kcal/m2·h (1004.6kJ/m2·h);

(3) Indoor sunlight penetration depth >;

(4) Sunlight exposure time indoors exceeds 1 hour.

2. Sunshades are used for shading doors and windows of low-rise and multi-story buildings. External use of sunshades is not suitable for high-rise buildings.

3. The material, thickness, specifications, and shape of the shading material, the form and specifications of the fixing device, the motor power (when using electric), and the wind pressure at the location are interconnected. They need to be considered comprehensively after obtaining relevant technical data from professional manufacturers according to the specific situation of the project.

4. The connection methods of various shading systems with the main body of the building, such as lightning protection measures, which involve safety issues, must be jointly determined by the engineering designers and professional manufacturers based on the specific project conditions.

5. For shading systems with a roller blind box, the impact of the roller blind box placement at different positions on wall energy efficiency should be considered.

6. When equipped with an automatic control system, air control is generally required. Rain sensors can be selected according to needs. In places that are often unoccupied, manual drive methods are usually not suitable for external shading.

7. It is recommended to use dark-colored fabrics (or place the dark side of the fabric facing outdoors) to achieve better shading effects.

8. Fabric performance requirements:

(1) The dimensions of the fabric must be fixed and not deformed.

(2) The fabric surface is flat and smooth to ensure smooth winding and prevent fabric deviation, wrinkling, or winding failure.

(3) The fabric should have sufficient tensile and tear strength to prevent tearing in harsh environments.

(4) The connection between fabrics should use high-frequency welding to ensure sufficient fabric strength.

(5) The fabric should ensure good color fastness.

(6) The fabric surface should have a certain degree of stain resistance, be easy to clean, and easy to maintain.

9. Fabric types: polyester coated fabric, fiberglass coated fabric.
