Specialty Fabrics ReviewTHE INDUSTRY IN PRINT

Specialty Fabrics Review is the voice of Industrial Fabrics Association

International, the one magazine that covers the entire industry.

Editorial content ranges from news, industry events, new products,

the latest high-tech fabrics and applications, to case studies, regular

columns focusing on advanced textiles, important industry business

trends and international applications; feature articles that bring

together industry opinions from dozens of different markets to highlight

important industry issues we’re all facing, today and tomorrow.

With each year’s editorial calendar—and with each issue—Specialty

Fabrics Review’s goals are to hold an industry-wide conversation,

focusing on technology, innovation and communication. We do this by:

• Helping our readers do their jobs better and make their

companies more profitable.

• Giving our readers practical information about products and markets

that might be open to them—and how to succeed in those markets.

• Showing industry suppliers who their customers are, what’s

important to them and where the growth areas are.

The latest LEED version 4 (v4) is mandatory

for new registration on November 1, 2016.

This report covers LEED v4 Rating System. This

rating system version is estimated to be utilized

for building assessments until 2022.

Improved Building Energy Performance

Awnings, Canopies and Solar Shade products

help reduce overall energy use of buildings by

providing necessary shading to the building

exterior and/or interior. Overall energy use

reduction not only helps in energy cost savings

(to achieve LEED® credits under Minimum

Energy Performance and Optimize Energy

Performance), but also reducing the peak

power requirements of the building which can

reduce HVAC system sizing. As a stakeholder,

you may think, “How do I measure energy

savings of these Awnings, Canopies and Solar

Shade products?” The answer is simple: if these

products are permanently fixed, they can be

modeled in the energy simulation tool.

Depending on the awning and solar shade

products, several credits may be obtained which

in turn will help the building project achieve

higher LEED rating.

The Awning and Solar Shade products

applicable to LEED Rating System are:

Stationary Awnings These are used to shelter

windows from sun and heat, control light and

glare, for privacy, and for aesthetics. Stationary

awnings are fixed in pace and provide shade

over windows or other openings.

Drop-arm (Adjustable) Window Awnings

Drop-arm window awnings provide total privacy

and sun-protection. They can be controlled

manually or using a motor (automatic) to

extend, retract, and change angle of the awning.

The shading device can thus provide total

privacy and sun-protection, like an exterior

shade curtain, or it can extend horizontally at

any angle to provide partial or full shade while

allowing daylight and views to the outside.

Exterior Solar Shades Exterior shades are

mounted above a window or storefront and

extend or retract in a plane parallel to the

window to protect the window and interior.

Similar to Drop-arm window awnings, exterior

solar shades can be controlled manually or using

a motor, and even using an automation system

that uses sensors to optimally extend or retract.

Control of Exterior Solar Shade screens can

be with a gear and hand crank, a motor with a

toggle switch, a motor with a remote control, or

a motor controlled by an automation system.

Stationary Commercial Canopies These are

fabric structures that provide shelter and

shade. By definition, they are attached to

the building at one end and supported by

at least one post at the other, or, they can be

constructed independently of a building.

The use of EVOH as a geomembrane is new and it now allows designers and regulators the option to better contain

both the liquid and gas phased hazardous waste on environmental sites. With the addition of EVOH, the Absolute

Barrier® line of geomembranes can now protect against VOCs, methane, nauseous odors, and even Radon. Even

better, the installation procedures for this special lining system are the same as common PE liners. With the use of

the Absolute Barrier® geomembrane system, the designers and owners of the 360 Degree Recycling facility were

able to provide a best available practice (BAP) methodology. The decision to use Absolute Barrier® not only

ensured greater environmental performance, but better long-term site economics related to environmental

responsibilities. They mitigated future groundwater concerns, conserved water resources, and reduced storm water

runoff fees. And they did so by implementing an easy containment strategy for both liquid and gas phased wastes

with the Absolute Barrier system.

SITE 360 DEGREE RECYCLING

LOCATION NEW CARLISLE, INDIANA

PROJECT APPLICATION HAZARDOUS WASTE CONTAINMENT

PROJECT CHALLENGES

• Hazardous waste containment for heavy metals and VOCs

• Containment of both liquid and gas phased VOCs required

• Geomembrane needed to be durable for use with rigid overlay system

PROJECT SOLUTION

• Absolute Barrier® Liner System

PROJECT CHALLENGE

When a new auto shredder operation was proposed near New Carlisle, Indiana, the designers and owners wanted

an extra step to secure permitting and ensure locals of the environmental protection measures being used for the

site. The 360 Degree Metal Recycling facility was to sit on an 18-acre footprint and house various pieces of

machinery used to dismantle and separate automobiles for recycling. The processing and disposal of these

vehicles, due to the diverse content of metals, fuels, and other fluids, presented a strong environmental challenge.

The use of a “hardscape” cover system was designed into the project and included large concrete pads and

diversion areas. These areas were used to support the heavy machinery along with diverting hazardous runoff into

designed containment systems. The concrete overlay would be used as a working platform and could be viewed as

a primary boundary layer for containment. But a more permanent and long-term secondary barrier was needed.

This extra layer would need to provide protection from operational leaks and spills caused by both the automobiles

being recycled and the recycling machinery. It would also need to protect against liquid and gas phased hazardous

waste.

PROJECT SOLUTION

The use of a geomembrane was immediately thought of as the required secondary containment liner. These typical

liners are commonly used as a liquid impermeable surface. However, the typical HDPE or LLDPE geomembranes

are not suited for containing gas phased hazardous waste or other naturally occurring gases. The runoff for this

facility would contain VOCs in the form of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene. All needed to be contained

for proper environmental protection. To accomplish the task of liquid and gas phased containment, the designers

relied on the use of the Absolute Barrier®. This seven-layer coextruded lining system contains an outer core of

polyethylene (PE) for liquid containment, just like a normal geomembrane. The special nature of this material lies

within the core of its multilayered construction. Within the Absolute Barrier® core lies a layer of EVOH (ethylene

vinyl alcohol). EVOH is used widely as a barrier film in the food packaging and specialty containment industries.
