Glass curtain wall refers to a building envelope or decorative structure that can have a certain displacement relative to the main structure by the supporting structure system, and does not share the effects of the main structure.
There are two types of walls: single-layer and double-layer glass. The glass curtain wall is a beautiful and novel building wall decoration method, and it is a distinctive feature of the modernist high-rise building era.
Function
The glass curtain wall of the modern high-rise building adopts the hollow glass which is a combination of mirror glass and ordinary glass, and the partition is filled with dry air or inert gas. Insulating glass is divided into two layers and three layers.
The two-layer insulating glass is composed of two layers of glass and a sealed frame to form a sandwich space; the three-layer glass is composed of three layers of glass to form two sandwich spaces. Insulating glass has the advantages of sound insulation, heat insulation, anti-frost, moisture resistance, and high wind pressure resistance.
According to measurement, when the outdoor temperature is -10°C, the temperature in front of the single-layer glass window is -2°C, while the indoor temperature using three-layer insulating glass is 13°C. In the hot summer, double-layer insulating glass can block 90% of the solar radiant heat. Sunlight can still pass through the glass curtain wall, but most people will not feel hot when exposed to the sun. The rooms with hollow glass curtain walls can be warm in winter and cool
