Aluminum Framed Glass Facade Unitized Curtain Wall System with Low-E Coating Film Insulation

The unitized glass curtain wall refers to the building curtain wall that is directly installed on the main structure by various curtain wall panels and supporting frames in a complete curtain wall structure basic unit.

The unitized glass curtain wall refers to the building curtain wall that is directly installed on the main structure by various curtain wall panels and supporting frames in a complete curtain wall structure basic unit.

Product Description

The glass curtain wall refers to the building peripheral protection structure or decorative structure which can be displaced by the supporting structure system relative to the main structure and does not share the main structure. The wall has a single layer and double glazing. The glass curtain wall is a beautiful and novel method of building wall decoration, which is a prominent feature of the era of modernist high-rise buildings.

Structural features of unit glass curtain wall:

First, the units that make up the glass curtain wall (frame material, glass, thermal insulation material) are assembled into a whole frame in a specialized factory, and then transported to the construction site. On the construction site, only one curtain wall unit needs to be installed and fixed on the main structure of the building in sequence.

Because the columns are connected, their specifications should be consistent with the storey height and column spacing. When connecting with floors or beams, the height of the curtain wall should be equivalent to the storey height or a multiple of the storey height; when connecting with columns, the width of the curtain wall should be equal to the column spacing.

 

The installation on the construction site is simple and fast, and the construction period of the project is shortened. The disadvantages are: inconvenient transportation and storage, high lifting requirements on the construction site, easy to cause damage, large consumption of unilateral materials, and high cost.

Advantages:

  1. Resistance to wind pressure deformation
  2. Rain water leakage (water tightness)
  3. Air penetration (air tightness)
  4. In-plane deformation (seismic resistance)
  5. Thermal engineering (heat preservation)
  6. Sound insulation
  7. Lightning protection
  8. Fire prevention
  9. Environmental protection
  10. Sound absorption
  11. Beautiful and decorative
  12. Energy saving
