As of October 1, 2023, the latest VMRG Quality Requirements and Opinions are back online on the VMRG website. The requirements are continuously updated to reflect new standards and regulations and the latest technology.
The Building Quality Assurance Act, which will take effect on January 1, 2024, is all about an integral assessment of the construction of a project. That is why the latest version of the VMRG Quality Requirements pays more attention to the product in which façade elements are mounted: the structural frames. In practice, deviations in frames regularly occurred, which is why the new 2024 version includes additional requirements that frames must meet.
The VMRG Quality Requirements are the requirements for the VMRG Hallmark. The VMRG Quality Mark is prescribed by architects in specifications to ensure quality facades. Facades and facade elements delivered by companies with this quality mark are guaranteed to meet the requirements that can be found on the VMRG website. https://vmrg.nl/kwaliteitseisen/kwaliteitseisen-en-adviezen These companies are also inspected on this by an independent organization. All facade builders affiliated with the VMRG have the VMRG Hallmark.
The new Quality Requirements include additional conditions for the execution of the structural frame. In terms of durability, this must be matched to the durability of the metal frame to be installed. For example, joints of the structural frame must be sufficiently tight and strong. Also included are the maximum allowable dimensional deviations for assembled structural frames. All details can be found in Chapter 14.4 of the VMRG Quality Requirements.
As of Oct. 1, 2023, the 2024 requirements are online. Officially, these requirements do not take effect until January 1, 2024. A user is free to declare the VMRG Quality Requirements 2024 applicable now.
