Airport Stainless Steel Cable Assemblies/Mesh #3

A façade facing with 1,500 square metres of X-TEND stainless steel cable mesh was installed at the new parking garage at the Sydney International Airport. Designed and mounted by our sales partner Ronstan, X-TEND was installed as a continuous surface over a length of 71 metres and 8 stories on the southern side of the building.

The transparency of the X-TEND network and the seeming lightness of the mesh's edging as well as intermediate fastening with I-SYS cable assemblies corresponded to the desire of the developer for an aesthetic and almost invisible solution to secure against falling.

The high permeability of X-TEND and the unhampered passage of air as well as water accordingly satisfy local building regulations for the classification as an "open parking deck", which in turn reduces construction requirements on ventilation and sprinkler systems and leads to a reduction of the construction costs.
