Description

EC2 J, or more commonly known as Hook-On cladding, is a self-supporting metal cladding overlapped with an invisible J-type supporting structure. The grids are perpendicular to the facades, following the layout plan. The panels are made of 5 to 8/10th-thick sheet steel, perforated or unperforated, with a wide choice of colors. The trays, with sharp, abutting edges, have two distinct folds on either side of the tray to position one on top of the other on the J-shaped support profile. Each tray can be dismantled by lifting and simultaneously handling the adjacent tray. Access to the plenum for maintenance is simplified, and the ceiling retains its monolithic appearance.
