The difference between curtain wall systems is in how to fix the glass in the space between the lamellas. This difference in stabilizing the glass makes the exterior look different. There are many types of curtain wall, and the most widely used ones, which you must have seen a lot in the buildings built in the alleys and streets around your place of residence, are glass curtain wall facades. Below we will describe 4 different types of this system.

Frameless curtain wall view (Frameless)

In the frameless curtain wall view, the cover is not used on the outer surface of the view. Structural adhesives are used to stabilize the glass in the space between the lamellae. After modulating with lamellas, the glass is again placed in the aluminum coil and fixed between the lamellas. As a result, a relatively uniform outer surface of the glass is created. Face cap curtain wall view In the face cap view (with cover), after installing the horizontal and vertical slats, the glass is installed between these slats. Then the glasses are installed in place by connecting the cap with the nose of the lamellae. The caps used have different colors and shapes (rectangular, round, etc.) and can be implemented with different lengths and depths. Semi frameless system This method is a combination of face cap and frameless facade, which gives a different look to the exterior of the building. In the half-frame system, according to the architectural design, in order to stabilize the glass in one of the horizontal or vertical directions, a cap can be used and in the other direction, glue or rubber can be used. U channel method The U-channel system can be considered a subset of frameless or full frameless, with the difference that in this method, aluminum coil around the glass is not used. By using special glass spacers and placing these parts in a puzzle-like manner in the empty space inside the spacer and using structure glue, we get a look similar to frameless. The cost of this method is lower than the frameless method.
