Nowadays, the global construction industry is in an era full of vitality and change, and it is also facing unprecedented challenges and changes

(1) Green and sustainable development:

The goal of "double carbon" (peak carbon dioxide emissions, carbon neutral) has become a national strategy to promote the transformation of the construction industry to energy saving, environmental protection and low carbon. Green buildings and buildings with near zero energy consumption have become the mainstream trend.
(2) Industrialization and intelligence:

New technologies such as building information model (BIM) and prefabricated building (PC building) are reshaping the traditional construction methods, improving efficiency, reducing costs and reducing waste.
(3) Upgrade of quality and performance:

Consumers and developers put forward higher requirements for the safety, durability, aesthetics and comfort of buildings. The choice of building materials has become the key to the success or failure of the project.

In this context, aluminum alloy material has become the first choice for modern buildings, especially curtain walls, doors and windows, indoor and outdoor decoration and structural applications because of its excellent comprehensive performance. The future of the construction industry will pay more attention to the harmonious coexistence of people, architecture and environment.

The main development trends include:

Greening and low carbonization

The core is to use recyclable and low-energy environmental protection materials.

Aluminum material is 100% recyclable, and the energy consumption of recycling is only 5% of that of primary aluminum production, so it is a veritable "green metal".

Intelligentization and functional integration

Architecture will no longer be a static structure, but a "living body" that can interact with the environment. Intelligent sunshade system, ventilation system and photovoltaic building integration (BIPV) will become standard. Aluminum has excellent mechanical properties and designability, which is an ideal carrier for integrating these intelligent functions.

Aesthetic diversification and individualization

The architectural appearance pursues unique artistic expression.

Aluminum can be treated by spraying, fluorocarbon paint, anodizing, wood grain transfer and other surface treatment technologies to achieve rich colors and textures and meet various architectural design ideas.

Choosing the right aluminum alloy series is the basis to ensure architectural performance, aesthetics and economy. The main aluminum series for building include series 1, series 3, series 5 and series 6, among which series 6 (Al-Mg-Si) is the most widely used building alloy.

How to choose the right aluminum series for your construction project? The following suggestions can be referred to.

Series 1 (1060, 1100)

The purity is over 99%, the corrosion resistance, electrical and thermal conductivity are excellent, and the strength is low. Suitable for non-load-bearing, non-structural decoration and functional parts, mainly used in lighting lamps, decorative foils, gaskets and other occasions with low strength requirements.

Series 3 (3003, 3004, 3005)

Mn is the main alloying element, which has good corrosion resistance, better strength than Series 1 and good formability. It is suitable for non-structural parts that need good formability and certain weather resistance, and can be used in ceiling, rolling doors, awnings, air conditioning blades, aluminum-plastic board core materials, etc.

Series 5 (5005, 5052, 5083)

Magnesium is the main alloying element, which has excellent seawater corrosion resistance, high strength and good weldability. It is suitable for building exterior decoration and structural parts with high humidity, coastal areas or special corrosion resistance requirements, and is often used for building panels and pressure vessels (not mainstream buildings) in maritime buildings, ships and chemical environments.

Series 6 (6061, 6063, 6082)

The main alloy for building. With magnesium and silicon as the main elements, it has excellent comprehensive performance, medium strength, good corrosion resistance, excellent extrudability and strong surface treatment ability. This series of alloys can be used for doors and windows, curtain wall profiles, photovoltaic supports, roofs, fences and structural frames. 6061 has higher strength and is used for structures with higher requirements; 6063 has better extrudability and is used for profiles with complex sections. 6063 or 6061 can be selected according to the section complexity, strength requirements and surface treatment methods (such as anodizing or spraying).
