Curtain walling system for low to mid-rise applications.
Suitable for low and midrise commercial buildings.
Senior Architectural Systems curtain walls have been developed to offer proven, cost effective solutions to large glazed areas in low and mid-rise buildings. With a 50 mm wide face dimension, the systems offer a range of mullion depths to cater for differing structural conditions and the option of single or double glazing for improved thermal and acoustic performance.
Features and benefits:
Construction:
The SCW system uses a box and plate format for factory frame assembly. Mechanical fixing of square cut adjoining components at butt joints uses stainless steel or plated self-tapping screws into integral screw ports extruded into the body of the sections. Vertical framing sections are designed to run through, enabling individual panel fabrication, easing the problems associated with handling and transporting large or multi-panel frames when fully assembled.
