Application · Façades and curtain walls
Curtain Wall Glass
Architectural glass make-ups coordinated around structural loads, safety, energy performance, appearance and façade system compatibility.
Project manufacturing · Global delivery
Overview
The façade works as a complete glass system.
Curtain wall glass is developed from elevations, panel schedules, design loads, thermal targets, coating appearance and framing conditions. Each element influences the final build-up.
Envelope performance
Thermal, solar, daylight and acoustic targets are coordinated.
Structural review
Panel size, support, loads and heat treatment inform the make-up.
Visual consistency
Coating, colour, reflectance, distortion and spandrel areas are considered.
Project essentials
Information required for façade review.
Elevations and schedule
Provide panel references, dimensions, quantities and orientation.
Design criteria
State wind loads, deflection limits, safety and post-breakage needs.
Performance targets
Include U-value, SHGC or g-value, light transmission and acoustics.
System details
Share framing, structural silicone, bite, edge cover and sealant information.
