What is the difference between the point glass curtain wall and the traditional?

(1) Structural form: Point-type glass curtain wall is a new architectural space structure system that combines modern structural technology designed by computer and glass technology. The curtain wall skeleton is mainly composed of seamless steel pipes and stainless steel tie rods (or additional cables) It is composed of stainless steel claws, and its surface glass is punched at the corner and connected to the full glass curtain wall of the supporting structure with metal connectors. The general glass curtain wall is mostly a plane frame type structure with a vertical member force system.

(2) Glass fixing form: The glass of the point-type glass curtain wall is reliably fixed with stainless steel claws through the pre-drilled holes on the glass, while the general glass curtain wall, such as fully hidden or semi-concealed, uses structural adhesive Bonded and fixed to the frame.
(3) Component processing: The main metal components of the point-type glass curtain wall require precision processing by turning drills and punching machine tools, batch factory production, high on-site installation accuracy and good quality. Generally, the aluminum alloy of the glass curtain wall is made on-site with electric tools on the construction site, and the processing is a bit rough, the precision is not high, and the efficiency is low.

(4) Glass varieties and specifications: The glass used in the point glass curtain wall is mostly low-emissivity or white tempered hollow glass, and it has a certain effect on solving urban light pollution. The glass specifications are not so strict. However, general glass curtain walls often use coated reflective glass, and the glass specifications are generally small.
