Glass-to-glass curtain wall is a glass connection technique in which large glass panels are attached to each other without additional framework or connections that are visible to the naked eye. This technique creates a transparent, minimalist appearance, which is often desired in modern building designs. In this system, glass panels are placed close to each other and connected using special methods that hide or reduce the physical connections between them.
Some of the characteristic characteristics of curtain walls are as follows:
- Glass Material: Curtain walls are generally made of large glass panels. This glass can come in various thicknesses and types, including coated window glass and glass resistant to ultraviolet rays.
- External Frame: Glass panels are mounted on an external frame made of aluminum, steel, or other materials. This framework forms the basic structure of the curtain wall and supports the glass panels.
- Transparency: One of the main characteristics of curtain walls is their transparency. This allows natural light to enter the building, creating a bright and open appearance.
- Aesthetics: Curtain walls are often used in modern building designs to provide an aesthetic and futuristic appearance. The designs can vary greatly, including complex geometric shapes.
- Thermal Insulation: To increase building energy efficiency, glass panels in curtain walls can be equipped with good thermal insulation to reduce heat and cold leaks.
- Resistance to Weather Elements: Curtain walls must be designed to withstand external weather elements such as rain, wind and extreme temperatures.
- Connections with Buildings: Curtain walls usually have no structural function in supporting building loads, and connections with the core structure of the building are carried out carefully to ensure safety and sturdiness
