Thermally insulated modular system is setting high standards in energy efficiency, design freedom and fabrication
Together with the Schüco Terrace Roof PRC 50, the Schüco Conservatory System CMC 50 is part of a streamlined system module range. The benefits include a reduced number of components and a high level of prefabrication of the modules (rafters), which considerably reduce fabrication times and costs.
Schüco CMC 50, thermally insulated, self-supporting, modular aluminium conservatory system
As a special conservatory construction for lean-to structures and free-standing pavilions, available as a mono-pitch roof (with or without solar bend), saddle roof, oriel and polygons.
Module 1, structural analysis
The load-bearing structure of the conservatory consists of rectangular multi-chamber hollow profiles. Consideration must be given to structural requirements when selecting the cross sections and bracing sections to be used. The static load-bearing rafters and purlins are on the room-side and have a face width of 50 mm, optionally in the design version with 5 x 5 mm chamfer or as e-rafters. All profile edges have a 0.5 mm radius.
The eaves and ridge purlins have joints so that the rafters can be attached at right angles (90°) regardless of the roof pitch (7-45°). Eaves purlins with basic depth of 83 mm or 128 mm depending on requirements.
The eaves purlins, rafters, verge rafters and supports are braced structurally in accordance with requirements with steel profiles in standard dimensions and/or with aluminium inserts.
