Let's say first that we do not deal with hundred
thousands square feet of regular, symmetrical Curtain
Wall systems for vision+spandrels ultra high rise
buildings, or with quantities and quantities of
standard Curtain Wall modules.
Our ALUMINUM CURTAIN WALLS, such as most of our
fabrication concepts, are CONCEIVED and ASSEMBLED for
CUSTOMIZED ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNS.
Typical examples of customized design are the following:
- ASYMMETRICAL GRID of vertical mullions and horizontal
profiles.
- MULTI-PANELS: Awnings; Sliding Doors and Windows;
Custom Design Rain Screens; Projected Spandrels and
their interactions.
- EXTERNAL ELEMENTS; Aluminum SUPERSTRUCTURES;
Structural Welding.
The generally itemized examples mentioned above and
some pictures of projects describe our specialty and
the feedback we can assure to designers when they look
for NEW, ACTUAL, or UNUSUAL geometries.
The CUSTOMIZED curtain walls concepts we introduce in
this page have all some common points:
- ANALYTIC STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING allowing irregular
partitions within the aluminum grid and PROTRUSIONS and
INTRUSIONS from the vertical line of the building.
- Complete and detailed DRAINAGE ANALYSIS and advanced
and innovative drainage systems included in the curtain
wall design.
- Extremely reliable MECHANISMS and DEVICES; extruded
gaskets, thermal breaks, PVC EPDM computer controlled
machine worked spacers and compensator.
The overall quality of our Curtain Walls is proven as
superior, but it is proven furthermore for being
probably the only real solution of integrated fully
engineered and top quality custom construction actually
backing the DESIGN FREEDOM.
