Team advice

To ensure the mechanical integrity of the abstract moucharabieh applied to the R15T20 guardrail infill panel, our Design Office recommends optimizing the laser-cut galvanized steel sheet with a thickness of 20/10ths to comply with the NF P 01-013 guardrail safety standard. The destructive bag test was carried out on a dynamic load using a soft body with a diameter of 50 cm and an impact of 600 joules, applied to the geometric center of the mashrabiya panel on the balustrade.

Balcony opacity

Visual opacity is achieved by using light-colored paint, which reduces oblique glances.
