Since the mid-19th century, curtain walls have gone through multiple stages of development from structural breakthroughs, material innovation to intelligent development worldwide. In this post, let’s sort out the international and Chinese development history of curtain wall systems.
Curtain walls belong to the group of lightweight façade systems and comprise lightweight, multifunctional, most frequently transparent building envelopes.
The development of curtain walls came from breakthroughs in materials and structural technology brought about by the Industrial Revolution. In 1851, the first use of standardized prefabricated components of glass and metal appeared in the London “Crystal Palace” . And it has created a precedent for modern curtain walls.
Increasing electrical generation and solar potential of tall buildings can therefore be attained by manipulation of the geometry and other design features of the facades, subject to visual and functional constraints, such as window design and positioning. A curtain wall system represents an efficient way to integrate photovoltaic modules.
Our standardized container products are engineered for reliability, safety, and easy deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
