Curtain Walling

Unitized curtain walls entail factory fabrication and assembly of panels and may include factory glazing. These completed units are installed on the building structure to form the building enclosure.

 Unitized curtain wall has the advantages of: speed; lower field installation costs; and quality control within an interior climate-controlled environment. The economic benefits are typically realized on large projects or in areas of high field labour rates.

In unitised construction, on the other hand, the curtain wall is composed of large units that are assembled in the factory, transported to the site and erected on the building. Aluminium profiles are used to form the frame. Opening vents, glazing and infill panels are built into units before being transported to site. As with stick construction, each unit is usually supported by the floor or perimeter beams.

Structual glazing is a proven 50mm system that has the potential of providing bespoke solutions that exceed even the most stringiest testing regimes.

Unlike Capped Curtain walling, this is a proven system that has the potential of providing bespoke solutions exceeding current capability is now a reality. To provide a flexible approach to aluminium facade engineering, with 50 mm standardised sight-lines with options for 4 sided structural glazing, 2 sided structural glazing with horizontal (SGH) or vertical (SGV) capping, concealed vents which maintain the slim 50 mm sight – lines.
