Abstract

In a facade assembly ( 14 ) for a building ( 10 ) with at least one facade element ( 16 ), which can be fastened to a wall or an inter-story ceiling ( 12 ) of the building ( 10 ), and with at least one fire-protection element ( 18 ), which can be mounted between the facade element ( 16 ) and the wall or the inter-story ceiling ( 12 ), the fire-protection element ( 18 ) has at least one fire-protection course ( 32 ) of an intumescent material. Furthermore, a method for mounting such a facade assembly is provided, as is a building structure using the facade assembly.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A facade assembly for a building, comprising:
 at least one facade element which can be fastened to a wall or an inter-story ceiling of the building, and   at least one fire-protection element which can be mounted between the facade element and the wall or the inter-story ceiling,   wherein the fire-protection element has at least one fire-protection course of an intumescent material.   
     
     
         2 . The facade assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein the fire-protection element has an insulating layer. 
     
     
         3 . The facade assembly according to  claim 2 , wherein the at least one fire-protection course is disposed between the insulating layer and the facade element. 
     
     
         4 . The facade assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein several fire-protection courses are provided. 
     
     
         5 . The facade assembly according to  claim 4 , wherein the fire-protection courses are joined flexibly to one another. 
     
     
         6 . The facade assembly according to  claim 4 , wherein at least one retaining element is disposed on or in the fire-protection courses. 
     
     
         7 . The facade assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein a protective layer is provided, which covers the fire-protection element at least partly. 
     
     
         8 . A building structure, comprising:
 at least one wall and/or one inter-story ceiling, and   at least one facade element which is fastened to the wall or inter-story ceiling of the building,
 wherein a joint is formed between the facade element and the 
 wall or the inter-story ceiling, and 
   a fire-protection element which is mounted in the region of the joint between the facade element and the wall or the inter-story ceiling,   wherein the fire-protection element has at least one fire-protection course of an intumescent material.   
     
     
         9 . A method for mounting a facade assembly to a building, the method comprising:
 attaching a facade element to a wall or an inter-story ceiling of the building,
 wherein a joint is formed between the facade element and the wall or the inter-story ceiling, 
   attaching a fire-protection element to the facade element and/or to the wall or the inter-story ceiling of the building in a region of the joint.   
     
     
         10 . The method according to  claim 9 , wherein an insulating layer, is mounted between the facade element and the wall or the inter-story ceiling,
 wherein the insulating layer is disposed substantially at the same height as the fire-protection course.   
     
     
         11 . The method according to  claim 9 , wherein a protective layer is applied,
 wherein the protective layer covers the fire-protection element at least partly.   
     
     
         12 . The facade assembly according to  claim 2 , wherein the insulating layer is a mineral-wool insulating layer. 
     
     
         13 . The facade assembly according to  claim 5 , wherein the fire-protection courses can be folded in hinged or accordion-like manner. 
     
     
         14 . The facade assembly according to  claim 6 , wherein the at least one retaining element comprises a glass-fiber fabric. 
     
     
         15 . The facade assembly according to  claim 7 , wherein the protective layer comprises an elastic material. 
     
     
         16 . The method according to  claim 10 , wherein the insulating layer is a mineral-wool insulating layer. 
     
     
         17 . The method according to  claim 11 , wherein the protective layer comprises an elastic material.
