The invention relates to a facade and/or a roof comprising a metal framework. Preferably, the case bays of said metal framework can be provided with insulating glass panes. The vertical member profiles and the cross member profiles comprise sealing grooves (5, 6, 9) for sealing strips (10, 13, 13.1) on which said insulating glass panes (102) can be supported. The bottoms of said sealing grooves (5) for the sealing strips (10) and, preferably, the bottoms of the receiving grooves (8) for the leakage water of the cross member profiles (2) rest on the sealing grooves (6, 9) of the sealing strips (13, 13.1) of the vertical member profiles (1). The single-part or multi-part sealing strips (13, 13.1) of the vertical profiles are higher than the searing strips (10) of the cross member profiles in such a way that the sealing strips (10, 13, 13.1) of the cross member profiles and the vertical member profiles occlude in a common plane. Said facade and/or roof is characterised in that at least one of the sealing strips (10, 13, 13.1) of the cross member profiles (1) and/or the vertical member profiles (2) comprises at least one drainage channel, preferably a condensate channel (11, 18).
A metal framework for a facade or roof window with frame areas adapted to receive insulating glass panes, the framework comprising
A sealing strip for a support structure for a facade or a roof, said support structure comprising transverse member profiles and vertical member profiles, wherein the sealing strip is disposed on at least one of the transverse member profiles and vertical member profiles and has a support region for a glass pane, the sealing strip comprising a drainage channel with a substantially rectangular U-shaped cross-section and being integrally formed on and connected with the glass support region through a rib, wherein the transverse member profile comprises a sealing groove, wherein the sealing strip of the transverse member profile has a base and two upper edges, wherein the base is formfittingly held in the transverse member profile and a section of the sealing strip located in a plane contacts the two upper edges of the sealing groove, wherein the rib overlaps with an outer lateral edge of the sealing groove, with the drainage channel being integrally formed at the outer lateral edge of the sealing groove.
A sealing strip for a support structure for a facade or a roof, said support structure comprising transverse member profiles and vertical member profiles, wherein the sealing strip is disposed on at least one of the transverse member profiles and vertical member profiles and has a support region for a glass pane, the sealing strip comprising a drainage channel with a substantially rectangular U-shaped cross-section and being integrally formed on and connected with the glass support region through a rib, wherein the sealing strip extends to a region where the transverse member profile and vertical member profile overlap, and wherein the drainage channel contacts the sealing groove of the vertical member profile.
