Through our sister company, Insol, we enjoy unrestricted access to the Insol Facade Testing Laboratory and their wind tunnel. The open-jet, high power wind tunnel is specifically designed for testing 1:1 scale building facade elements.
Able to generate flow velocities over 50m/s, the wind tunnel is designed to fit large 1:1 scale models over its 3m diameter turntable. With full variable speed control over the 4 centrifugal fans, maximum control of wind speeds allow for low-speed aero-acoustic testing as well as high-speed structural tests.
