LEED Screens & Grilles

Featured Project: Johnson & Wales University, Charlotte, NC

Bunting Architectural Metals' sunscreens and grilles reduce energy costs while maintaining distinct architectural features. While we have our own line of standard sunscreen systems that provide Green Design, we willingly work with architects and designers to provide new sunscreens systems that pass or exceed the expectations of LEED certification.

These sunscreens were designed to be an architectural feature of the building. But their real benefit is that they function to reduce heating costs and meet LEED expectations.

This is an aluminum sunscreen that was brought to life using welded and mechanical connections.

The final product was engineered from concept drawings to meet the requirements of all applicable code & load laws. Our in-house engineers work diligently to provide our customers with high-quality products.

Featured Project: Wachovia Bank National Branch Bank Rollout

These sunscreens were designed to meet the goals of a cleaner better environment. Wachovia realized the benefit of producing green products in the bottom line.

This sunscreen system differs from most in that is self supporting and does not tie back into the building structure. This is an ideal use for a retrofit application. Heating reduction will decrease the costs to maintain the building.

The sunscreen is an aluminum construction with steel fabricated support structure.

Featured Project: Spring Street Parking Garage Greenville, SC

These sunscreens provide shade to parked vehicles that are exposed to the sun's heat while parked on the top of a parking deck.

There are two different mounting conditions presented on this featured project. The above screens are mounted to aluminum columns & cables.

The sunscreens to the right are
mounted between two brick piers.

Featured Project: University of Maryland Dental College Baltimore, MD

This design was presented as a conceptual drawing that was detailed for construction by our team at Bunting Graphics. The goal was simple but complicated to bring to fruition.

The goal of this LEED sunscreen was to take the light created by the sun and have it pass into the 7 story atrium to create light.

The light reflectors were mounted on all sides of the building and on the roof. A highly reflective stainless steel was developed by Bunting to maximize the reflectivity of the stainless steel but to not create a glare.

All the stainless steel is marine grade.

The stainless steel I-Beams are mounted to pins that tie back to the building structure. A solid 1 1/4" rod is cantilevered off the building to provide additional strucutral support.

The light reflector to the left is one of four cantilevered off the side of the building. At 80' long and 16' wide, this structure will be a beacon for the city of Baltimore.

LEED Sunscreens are unique to each environment. Our firm is considered by many to be on the cutting edge of green fabrication related to sunscreens, grilles, and cathode lighting.
