3rd 3D Animation of BIMstone Project. This animation describes the construction process of a ventilated façade with natural stone slabs.
The natural stone ventilated façades have multiple technical and aesthetic advantages as, thermal insulator, non-flammable material, mitigator of the “heat island” effect, durability, improve well-being… Apart from the small energy expenditure required to extraction of this material, it can be easily disposed of and recycled since natural stone does not contain any major pollutants.

The most special feature of natural stone is its versatility which makes every surface, be it a façade, roof or floor, unique an offers architects and builders countless design options. In addition, the natural stone is one of the most sustainable construction materials because of its ecological properties. Apart from the small energy expenditure required to extraction of this material, it can be easily disposed of and recycled since natural stone does not contain any major pollutants.
For more information about the procedure described in this animation, you can find the technical documentation in the OER (Open Educational Resource) of the BIMstone project in English, German, Spanish, Croatian and Romanian: http://www.bimstoneproject.eu/en-oer/
