Calculations pertaining to construction physics by SIGA
The new build is considered to be a status symbol in the industry. The photovoltaic system on the facade was a new experience for everyone involved. For this reason, it was all the more essential to select the materials carefully.
We carried out multiple calculations pertaining to construction physics during the planning phase. SIGA was involved throughout the construction process. We thus helped our customer to choose the right products. SIGA employees were on the construction site repeatedly and provided support with practical tips.
The new build should be Minergie-A-Eco certified.
