Porsche Bethesda

North Bethesda, MD

Porsche Bethesda in North Bethesda, MD, uses 7,000 SF of the SMARTci® Building Enclosure System over metal studs, behind ACM and corrugated metal cladding, with polyiso insulation. It is an automobile dealership and showroom, designed by aiDesign Group, built by Choate Construction, and installed by EDA Contractors.

SMARTci gives the ACM and corrugated panels a consistent vertical attachment grid over the metal-stud backup, coordinating cladding support and continuous insulation within a single enclosure. For a dealership, where the showroom façade forms part of the brand, this provides clean cladding transitions and reliable thermal control across the metal-faced wall, consistent with the envelope priorities discussed for car dealership projects.
