Application

A stick curtain wall system suitable for vertical and sloped applications, including facetted walls, up to ten storeys high. Applications include:

  • Apartments.
  • Office buildings.
  • Hospitals.
  • Student accommodation.
  • Schools.
  • Colleges.
  • Universities.

Description

The AA®110 Stick Curtain Wall system is available in a variety of cap designs and is suitable for vertical and sloped applications, including facetted walls. To provide complete design flexibility, the system is also available horizontally or vertically capped, as a Structurally Silicone Glazed system and a Fire Resistant system.


The flexibility of design allows every project need to be met without compromising the performance of the façade. This is achievable through a variety of standard depth mullion, transom, thermal break and gasket options. It is Kawneer's most recommended curtain wall system up to ten storeys – over this, it is recommend that the specifier looks into the benefits of a unitized approach requiring less external access to the building’s façade.


Features and benefits:

  • Dry-jointed system.
  • Suited to vertical, sloped (from 7° with slope vent) and facetted applications (mullion drained only).
  • Concealed zone drainage and mullion drainage options.
  • Tested and certified in accordance with the relevant BS EN and CWCT curtain wall standards.
  • Complies with all current thermal regulations.
  • Range of mullion, transom and facecap options with 65 mm sightlines.
  • Bespoke project-specific facecaps can be accommodated, subject to assessment.
  • Fully capped option.
  • Horizontal or vertical cap-only option.
  • Silicone-glazed option.
  • Offers total flexibility – can suite with all of the other AA110 options and shares components with AA®100 curtain wall system.
  • Available with a concealed open-out vent.
  • Accommodates glass 4–50 mm.
  • Removes reliance upon on-site sealing and guarantees excellent weathering performance.
  • Wide range of applications from the same suite of sections.
  • Proven weathering performance in the most stringent conditions.
  • Provides choice of aesthetics when designing a building façade.
  • Fire-rated option.

Drainage

Mullion.

Guidance for specification option:

Zone drainage systems feature simple butt-jointed mullions and transoms, with each panel acting as an individual unit. Drainage and ventilation slots are located in the vertical pressure plate. Transoms are square-cut at the ends to incorporate EPDM mouldings and gaskets to maintain each zone. Transoms are fitted with a ‘Batman gasket’ to maintain the thermal performance. Each panel is individually pressure-equalized and drained via its transom, enabling the curtain wall to quickly react to fluctuating wind pressure.
