SK1N is an adaptive building envelope solution suitable for installation on walls and sloping gable roofs as well as onto new and existing buildings. Horizontal SK1N top hats or traditional timber battens are installed over a breathable membrane before each SK1N tile is fixed at preformed holes. All horizontal joints are overlapped, while vertical joints are variable for maximum visual effect. SK1N is a rear ventilated rainscreen cladding system and must be installed onto a waterproofed structural wall or roof.

Designed from Every Angle

Created to flow across any surface, SK1N is a unifying design system that adapts to your architectural vision and the environment it lives within.

Infinite Expression Characterised by genuine versatility and simple installation – SK1N is the perfect solution for both expressive creativity and streamlined efficiency.

Contemporary Yet Enduring Beauty

Developed in Italy – SK1N’s DNA is intimately connected to timeless and iconic European craftsmanship.

Combining the enduring beauty of terracotta with contemporary ceramic techniques and colours, it has a range of imaginative applications, from unique façades to distinctive roof lines – all united in one seamless material expression.

Multilayered Defence Against the Elements

A properly designed and installed rain screen acts as a barrier against water ingress whilst dissipating moisture and condensation out of the building. Each component in the SK1N system is engineered for performance and comprises of:

- the SK1N tiles,

- horizontal battens, either aluminium or timber,

- and a breathable membrane.

The SK1N system can be installed directly onto the frame or with an additional vertical batten creating a vented cavity. This airspace facilitates the removal of excess heat, humidity and moisture through natural convective air movement.

Brickworks Building Products SK1N

Benefits

Moisture Management

The propriety aluminium SK1N top hat dictates the ideal tile slope and 40 mm overlap. The result is a continuous drainage plane which deflects impeding rain away from critical structural members.

Thermal Efficiency

SK1N has a high thermal mass giving it the ability to absorb and store heat from direct sunlight during the day. This slows down the rate of heat transfer thus moderating internal temperatures and comfort.

Durable

SK1N tiles are classified as exposure grade so that they can be used in all environments, including severe coastal areas with suitable fixings.

Tested Performance

The SK1N system has been rigorously tested by accredited laboratories to ensure that each tile will last. The tiles have been assessed under AS 4459: Methods of sampling and testing ceramic tiles and AS 4455: Masonry units, segmental paves and flags. SK1N is deemed non-combustible under AS 1530.1: Combustibility test for materials and was tested for a strength limit state pressure to AS 4284: Testing of building facades.

Flexibility

TImeless colours, decades of durability, and with a strong horizontal design emphasis, SK1N combines throughful design with extraordinary versatility.

Components

The L profile allows the product to sit flatter across the facade and results in subtle lines running across the facade.

When using the U profile, the product's nose sits more pronounced and creates greater emphasis on horizontal lines running across the facade.

U Profile L Profile

SK1N tiles are extruded from traditional clay and fired at extreme temperatures providing a low maintenance cladding which is non-combustible, durable and colour fast. The end result is a natural aesthetic, bound to outlast the harsh weathering of any environment.

Breathable Membrane

Moisture management and reducing condensation build up is critical in maintaining building longevity and comfort. A suitable water control membrane should be installed under SK1N which prevents the ingress of liquid water whilst allowing for water vapour to escape. This is especially critical in humid climate zones and must comply with AS/NZS 4200.2 Pliable building membranes and underlays – Installation as well as any NCC requirements.

Membrane specifications for wall installations of SK1N are detailed in table opposite. This may be substituted with another membrane with equivalent or better properties.

designed in the same regions as the adjacent coast.

Step 1 - Determine Wind Region

Page 21: SK1Nbbp.style/PUBLIC/products/technical-manual/australbricks/...Fix horizontal battens, either timber or aluminium top hats, top and bottom at every stud to ensure adequate structural

21

Step 2 - Terrain Category Region Definitions as per 1170.2:2011 Clause 4.2.1

Terrain, over which the approach wind flows towards a structure, shall be assessed on the basis of the following category descriptions:

1. Terrain Category 1 (TC1) Very exposed open terrain with few or no obstructions and enclosed, limited-sized water surfaces at serviceability and ultimate wind speeds in all wind regions, e.g. flat, treeless, poorly grassed plains; rivers, canals and lakes; and enclosed bays extending less than 10 km in the wind direction.

2. Terrain Category 1.5 (TC1.5) Open water surfaces subjected to shoaling waves at serviceability and ultimate wind speeds in all wind regions, e.g. near-shore ocean water; large unenclosed bays on seas

and oceans; lakes; an denclosed bays extending greater than 10 km in the wind direction. The terrain-height multipliers for this terrain category shall be obtained by linear interpolation between the values for TC1 and TC2 in Table 4.1. 3. Terrain Category 2 (TC2) Open terrain, including grassland, with well-scattered obstructions having heights generally from 1.5 m to 5 m, with no more than two obstructions per hectare, e.g. farmland and cleared subdivisions with isolated trees and uncut grass.

4. Terrain Category 2.5 (TC2.5) Terrain with a few trees or isolated obstructions. This category is intermediate between TC2 and TC3 and represents the terrain in developing outer urban areas with scattered houses, or large

acreage developments with fewer than ten buildings per hectare. The terrain-height multipliers for this terrain category shall be obtained by linear interpolation between the values for TC2 and TC3 in Table 4.1.

5. Terrain Category 3 (TC3) Terrain with numerous closely spaced obstructions having heights generally from 3 m to 10 m. The minimum density of obstructions shall be at least the equivalent of 10 house-size obstructions per hectare, e.g. suburban housing, light industrial estates or dense forests.

6. Terrain Category 4 (TC4) Terrain with numerous large, high (10 m to 30 m tall) and closely-spaced constructions, such as large city centres and well-developed industrial complexes.

3. Install starter trim at appropriate height to ensure clearance from ground slab and fixed at every stud.

4. Fix horizontal battens, either timber or aluminium top hats, top and bottom at every stud to ensure adequate structural support for the SK1N tiles.

a. A 170 mm vertical spacings between the battens allow for a 40 mm tile overlap concealing screw locations.

5. Hang tile onto the batten and fasten at a minimum two of four preformed fixing holes.

a. Note that tiles are a fired clay natural product and thus variations in edge straightness will be present.

b. Ensure holes are sufficiently countersunk and large enough for screws to pass cleanly.

c. It is good practice to partially fix the tile at two locations then tighten evenly just until the tile is firmly gripped.

d. Over tightening will cause uneven installation of tiles and can lead to fractured tiles.

Roofing Installation SK1N is suitable for gable and skillion roof applications only and must be installed onto a waterproof metal or marine ply underlay. For gable roofs, a metal dry verge should be used. Roof spacings must be adequate for the wind conditions and loads subjected to the SK1N installation. It should also be in accordance with AS 1562.1:2018 Design and installation of sheet roof and wall cladding.

Roofing Installation

1. Install all necessary guttering, fascia boards and guard rails

2. A metal or marine ply roofing underlay is to be installed to provide weather tightness to the structure

For a metal underlay

a Supporting top hats are fixed to the roof structure before installing the metal roof sheeting.

For ply underlay

b Sheath roofing structure with marine ply and ensure structure is continuously joined at rafters or trusses

c Fix 30 x 10 mm counter battens on top of the ply layer to simulate typical 600 mm spaced rafters

d Install a waterproof membrane, compliant with AS 4654.1, on top of the counter battens

Page 35: SK1Nbbp.style/PUBLIC/products/technical-manual/australbricks/...Fix horizontal battens, either timber or aluminium top hats, top and bottom at every stud to ensure adequate structural

35

3. Install starting tilt batten to allow for a 50 mm tile overhang for the first course

4. Fix horizontal battens, either 38 x 38 mm timber battens or SK1N top hat at 170 mm centres on top of the water proof underlay

5. Screw each tile with two 10 gauge type 17 counter sunk head screws into the central preformed holes

a. SK1N tiles are installed with a 40 mm overlap and are recommended to be side laid in stretcher bond pattern working up and across the roof minimising the traffic on the tiles and potential breakage

b. For durability, fixing screws are required to be stainless steel grade 304

c. The embedment length of the screw should be ≥ 30 mm into the 38 x 38 mm batten
