Curtain Wall 

Curtain wall units are a thin and aluminum-framed wall, with the materials of in-fills of glass, metal panels, or thin stone. They are self-supporting and give a building's exterior the look of top to bottom glass. It is constructed mainly on site with mullions and transoms supporting glass, spandrel panels, metal panels and brise-soleils, connected piece by piece.

A curtain wall is a non-structural, external building envelope system that is typically made of lightweight materials such as glass, aluminum, or stone. It is designed to protect the building interior from weather conditions and to provide a barrier against air and water infiltration.

Curtain walls are commonly used in modern high-rise buildings and are often installed on top of a structural frame made of steel or concrete. The term "curtain wall" refers to the fact that the system hangs from the building's structure like a curtain, rather than being a load-bearing wall.

Curtain walls are highly customizable and can be designed in various shapes, sizes, and configurations to suit the specific requirements of a building. They can also be engineered to provide specific levels of insulation, fire resistance, and acoustic performance.

One of the main advantages of a curtain wall is its ability to allow natural light to penetrate deep into the building interior, which can improve the overall comfort and well-being of occupants. Additionally, since the curtain wall is not load-bearing, it can be easily replaced or modified without impacting the overall structural integrity of the building.

Advantages:

• Aesthetics: Curtain walls can give buildings a modern and sleek appearance, with large expanses of glass providing an open and transparent feel.
• Natural lighting: The large glass panels of a curtain wall system can allow natural light to penetrate deep into a building, reducing the need for artificial lighting and improving the comfort and productivity of occupants.
• Energy efficiency: Modern curtain walls can be designed to provide high levels of thermal insulation, reducing the energy needed to heat and cool a building.
• Weather protection: Curtain walls provide a barrier against wind, rain, and other weather conditions, protecting the building interior and its occupants.
• Flexibility: Curtain walls are not load-bearing, which means they can be easily modified or replaced without affecting the building's overall structural integrity.

Applications:

• High-rise buildings: Curtain walls are commonly used in tall buildings to provide a lightweight and aesthetically pleasing external envelope system.
• Office buildings: The transparency and natural lighting provided by curtain walls can create a comfortable and productive working environment for office occupants.
• Hotels and residential buildings: Curtain walls can provide panoramic views for occupants, and the natural light can help create a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere.
• Retail buildings: The transparency of curtain walls can showcase merchandise to potential customers and create an inviting shopping environment.
• Educational buildings: The natural lighting provided by curtain walls can create a comfortable and stimulating learning environment for students.
