London Wall Place is a new development, with more than 500.000m2, located in the heart of London, between Moorgate and Barbican. This development is comprised by two commercial buildings and will add a large green area to the city. The largest building has about 300.000m2 and rises to a height of 12 floors, and the remaining building, with about 12.000m2, has 16 floors. Both are encased using steel, concrete and glass, having green roofs as a compliment for the surrounding green areas..
One of this project’s unique characteristics is the creation of its steel structures, walkways in height that will link the buildings, whilst also having a path for public access. For this project’s façade weatherproofing, three Effisus solutions were used: Effisus VapX (vapour barrier), Effisus Breather+ (breathable membrane) and Effisus 2Bond DS (double-sided solution for sealing between two surfaces). With this, the façade’s watertightness is ensured, the ventilation of its various components is possible, and vapour transfers are stopped.
