Benefits Of Framed Curtain Wall System

 

 
 

Keep out the weather

First and foremost, curtain wall systems offer excellent weather protection. This not only improves the performance of the building but will increase its durability as well.

 
 

Resist water penetration

Curtain walls are designed to prevent water from penetrating the system and to keep the interior of the building dry.

 
 

Reduce building sway

Curtain walls are specially designed to disperse stress from sources such as high winds, improving the overall steadiness of the building.

 
 

Increase energy efficiency

By using glass that is treated and glazed properly, curtain wall systems can reduce the amount of heat lost or gained by a building. Better thermal efficiency can lead to reduced energy consumption in the building.

 
 

Improve fire resistance

Curtain wall systems can help slow down the spread of fire by acting as a barrier and compartmentalizing a building. The specialized fire-resistant glass will help protect occupants and the building itself.

 
 

Elevate building appearance

Glass curtain walls can create a classy appearance for both high-rise buildings and low-rise buildings.

 
 

Superior visuals

The large glass panels of a curtain wall improve visibility and increase natural light, making the interior of the buildings better too.

 
 

Versatile design options

Curtain wall systems can be designed and manufactured to a wide range of specifications to suit the specific aesthetic and practical needs of a project.

 

Types Of Framed Curtain Wall System
Storefront Curtain Wall
Vertical Mullion Curtain Wall
Large Curtain Wall
Alumicor Curtain Wall

Exposed frame glass curtain wall
The exposed frame glass curtain wall has fixed glass horizontal and vertical metal profiles exposed on the outer surface. The original profiles are all functional products with a square form. However, to enhance their decoration, many manufacturers have developed a variety of cross-sectional shapes with facade decoration functions for design selection.

 

Semi-hidden frame curtain wall
A semi-hidden frame curtain wall is a structural glue bonded glass curtain wall. Structural glue bone the glass to the metal frame to form a small plate unit in the glass factory. Then the plate unit is suspended and fixed on the metal supporting structure after being transported to the construction site.

 

Hidden frame curtain wall
A hidden frame curtain wall is a curtain wall where all four sides of the glass are by glue bonding. In this way, from the curtain wall’s outer surface, we can only see the glass and glue joints.

 

Two sides fixed frame glass curtain wall
The glass panels of the conventional frame-type glass curtain wall are fixed all around (adhesive bonding or frame support fixing). In addition, there are particular forms in some designs where only two sides support and set the glass panels.

 

Stick System Curtain Wall
The curtain wall installation methods are stick system, unitized type, and semi-unitized curtain wall. First, install metal columns on the main structure for stick system curtain walls, then beams and glass panels. Unfortunately, this construction mode requires a lot of work on-site and relatively tricky quality control.

 

Unitized curtain wall
The unitized curtain wall system assembles the components and facing materials into a unit in the factory. After that, the whole team will transport to the construction site for hoisting pre-installed the main body of the building structure.

Application of Framed Curtain Wall System

 

Office buildings

Curtain walls with vision glass provide abundant natural light and views for better occupant comfort and productivity. They allow the creation of deep open-plan office spaces.

High-rise towers

Unitized and semi-unitized curtain walls accelerate facade construction and provide enhanced structural performance for tall buildings.

Airports

Extensive use of glass provides transparency, openness, and daylight in public spaces like terminals while permitting views of aircraft and runways.

Shopping malls

Glass curtain walls allow daylighting of interior spaces and visibility for store displays. Suspended glazed roofs daylight atria.

Institutional buildings

Facades can be designed with high-performance glass and shading devices to meet energy efficiency goals.

Healthcare facilities

Views of nature through curtain walls have restorative benefits for patients. Advanced glazing reduces noise and glare.

Museums

Curtain walls illuminate exhibit areas with natural light. Minimalist framing provides unobstructed views of displays and artworks.

Residential towers

Panoramic views improve the quality of living. Acoustic insulation maintains privacy. Thermal separation prevents condensation.

Sports stadiums

Curtain walls enhance the spectator experience with visibility of the playing area while controlling heat gain. Retractable facades open during favorable weather.

 

FAQ

 

Q: What is the biggest advantage of the curtain wall system?

A: Not only do curtain walls prevent elements from entering a building, but they also help insulate the interior, keeping the building warm and dry no matter the weather.

Q: Why do architects prefer curtain wall over window wall systems?

A: Curtain walls excel in thermal control and insulation. They allow for thicker IGUs, thermal breaks, and advanced glazing technologies, for superior energy efficiency. Curtain walls are often a preferred choice for projects prioritizing energy savings and sustainability.

Q: Why might an architect choose to use a curtain wall?

A: The exterior of a building is important for the structural integrity of the building, while protecting the building's interior. Curtain walls is one of the ways to protect your building from harsh outdoor elements.

Q: What is the difference between a curtain wall system and a window wall system?

A: Window walls are built one floor at a time and are supported by the slabs above and below them. In other words, window walls are built within the slab edge. Curtain walls are structurally independent and don't require support on every floor. They tend to span multiple stories and are built outside the slab edge.

Q: What is the major innovation of curtain wall construction?

A: Dynamic glazing is an innovative technology that allows for adjustable light and privacy control in curtain wall systems. Unlike traditional static glazing, dynamic glazing incorporates materials such as smart glass and electrochromic glazing to provide flexibility in terms of transparency and shading.

Q: What is the maximum height of a curtain wall panel?

A: Curtain Wall Panel Sizes are manufactured with a variety of sizes with panel widths between 2'-8' (. 61-2.44 m) and overall panel heights from 2'-20' (. 61-6.1 m).

Q: What is the objective of curtain walling?

A: Curtain walling is designed to fight against air and water infiltration, sway induced by wind and forces from the likes of earthquakes and other vibrations on the building and its own dead load weight forces. Modern curtain walling systems tend to be designed with extruded aluminium members.

Q: What is the new technology in curtain walls?

A: Exciting Innovations in Curtain Wall Systems
Smart Glass Technology: Electrochromic and self-tinting glass are revolutionizing curtain walls. These glasses adjust their transparency dynamically in response to sunlight, optimizing natural light utilization and reducing glare.

Q: What is curtain wall framing?

A: A curtain wall system is a thin, framed external structure consisting of fill-ins and non-structural partitions. It's grown into arguably the most popular glazing system – just look around you. Consider the sweeping skyscrapers you see in the city.

Q: What is the design function of a curtain wall?

A: In commercial and similar buildings, the building envelope components, especially, the curtain wall provides two key functions: Weather barrier against the environmental factors for air and water infiltration and light transmittance to the interior space.
