Part 3. Unitised Curtain Walling with Aluminium and Glass 

This course looks at unitised façade with glazed-in glass paned and aluminium panels. Aluminium panels have become the second most widely spread facade coverage after bricks. There are three ways of installing aluminium panel façade. First – fixing of aluminium cladding back to the lightweight steel frame with punched openings. Second - mixture of rain-screen cladding and stick-curtain wall system. Third – incorporating both aluminium panels and glass panes in unitised curtain walling. This course is on the third assembly type.

Unique appearance of the façade was achieved with all standard systems. Detail drawings, videos and explanatory clips explain buildability, performance, compliance and assembly-specific aspects.
