Production
The prefabricated elements are manufactured undercontrolled conditions infactory environment which ensures an excellent quality.
Profiles are cut, machinedand welded.
The elements are assembled for fixing of fittings (i.e. cable trays, radiator brackets etc.), glass and gaskets.
The finished elements are stored on a special rackstorage unit for transportto the building site.

Installation
Photos 1 and 2
Installation starts bypositioning fittings for the elements on the building skeleton.
After fitting of furniture the elements are hoisted to their positions by a mobile craneor a building crane.
Installation
Photos 3 and 4
Elements are installed either horizontally or vertically.
Elements can be adjusted both in height and sideways to ensure they are located in their exact position.
14
Installation
The elements are ready assembled in one of HansenGroup’s production units. The controlledconditions ensure thehighest attainable quality. Hansen UnitAl is a modular system (unitised) which helps to ensure an extremely fast installation. The possibilityof installation without using any lift or scaffolding lowers the costs and increasesbuilding site safety. It isalso easy to achieve aweathertight building which reduces the overall time schedule as other installation work can be started earlier.
Weathertight building inreduced time= reduced time schedule= improved economy!

Fenestration Engineers:PreconalHansen
Profile System:Hansen UnitAl
World Trade Center inMalmoe is one of the world’s most energy efficient office buildings with glass façades. To obtain this result andat the same time to keepexpenses at a reasonablelevel, Medroc Engineeringin a cooperation withPreconalHansen and their expertise within fenestration, have combined a curtain wall construction with highinsulation, excellent lighting and light control.
There is an automaticsystem for optimum energy exploitation which continually monitors and controls the indoor climate every day, all year round.
The building housescompanies and officesoperating in the exportand import sector.
PreconalHansen hassupplied 600 elements forin total 5,500 m².

Double façade
Double façade protects the solar shading against wind and weather conditions.
It provides better possibilities for installation of anadvanced and efficient blind and solar shading control system.
During the winter period, the extremely low U-values ensure a low energy consumption and reduced operation costs.
During the summer period, solar shading is reducing costs of climate control.
34
Ventilation
Motor-controlled vents canbe positioned in the façade for comfort and smokeventilation.

Footbridge
A footbridge which has been situated between the two façades outside each floor helps efficient maintenance and service.

Modular constructedfaçades
To meet building industryrequirements for modularconstructions, HansenGroup has developed a prefabricated modular system for unitisedcurtain walls - modularconstructed curtain walls - for use in commercial buildings and institutions.
Hansen UnitAl has a number of advantages such as:
• Fast installation process• Low on-site costs• High quality• Various alternatives for profile combinations• Excellent security• Integrated solar shading
The extremely fast installation time ensures a faster construc-tion of a weathertight building which will enable earlier start-up of internal work.
Installation without any lift nor scaffolding reduces on-site costs and security will be increased for all parties involved on thebuilding site.
Light curtain wall constructions reduce requirements on the load-bearing structure of the building.
Assembly of the finishedelements in a heated factory environment which protects against wind and weather improves product quality and productivity.
Elements can be supplied with fitted accessories such as cable trays, and can further reduce time spent on site for othersub-contractors.
Hansen UnitAl has been tested in accordance with the strictest requirements. The system has been developed according to the new statutory energy savingrequirements and meets all safety requirements.

Architects:Asplan Viak AS
Building Contractor:Skanska Norge AS

Profile System:Hansen UnitAl
Forum Jæren in Stavanger, Norway, includes 5,000 m² of Hansen UnitAl curtain wall elements which have been manufactured and installed by HubroHansen.

Façade elements
The prefabricated elements have got an even higherquality than a traditionalaluminium and glass façade and at the same time, the installation time has been dramatically reduced.
The client has a great choice of colours, glazing options, and design.
46
Efficient installation
The building industry requires increased efficiency and the possibility of splitting each single project into modules.
Accordingly, HansenGroup has developed Hansen UnitAl for prefabricated elements and unitised curtain walls for use in commercial buildings and institutions.
48
Unofficial WorldRecord?
In Norway the system has been used for ”ForumJæren” - a 19-storey building in Stavanger.A Skanska building contract.
HubroHansen installed 66 elements which should be ”an unofficial world record” in installation of prefabricated elements.The average installation was approximately 40 elements per working day.
A successful use of façadeelements requires an early start on cooperation and a positive dialogue betweenarchitects and contractors. The elements must bedesigned and details must be settled before production starts; in the same way as concrete elements aresystemized for modernbuilding.

Project
It seems obvious that Novozymes as the leading company within bioinnovation cannot be content with just a façade!
Novozymes choseHansenGroup’s systemfor modular constructed façades - Hansen UnitAl -for their new office building.
Hansen UnitAl is manufac-tured as 100 % prefabricated façades under controlled conditions without any delays due to weather or other site conditions.
Other components, such as cable trays or solar shading, can also be fitted at the factory in the prefabrication phase.As a result of this, the time from startup of installation until the building has become weathertight is reduceddramatically.
Novozymes is a fineexample of a modularconstructed façade withintegrated blinds which has been custom-fit to client’sand architects’ requirements.

Façade elements withHansen UnitAl system offer time and money savings,and guarantee an excellent product quality!
The installation time willbe considerably reduced, whilst retaining excellent product quality, resulting in a weathertight building in a faster than normal time.

Integrated solar shading
Novozyme’s newmultifunction building hasinspired a unique solar shading solution which was developed in a fruitful and constructive cooperation with Jørn Langvad Arkitekter.
The front of the building has 264 pieces of 1.8 m wideand almost 4 meter tallvertical panels which have been manufactured fromperforated aluminium, that even in a closed positionallows a view from indoors. At the same time, they are also functioning as efficient solar shading.
The panels are automatically closed when the lastemployees leave Novozymes, and open again when theyarrive next morning. The changing intelligent façade is linked to the activity in the office building.

Automatic adjustable solar shading
The intelligent façadechanges appearance andfunction depending onbuilding activity throughout the day.
For example, when closed at night, the panels provide additional security and help prevent burglaries.
