BENEFITS OF CURTAIN WALL
When clients are in the planning stages, the goal of creating a curtain wall shop drawing is to provide a rich, detailed visual display of the potential benefits of adding a curtain wall design to the finished project. Our team at VIATechnik has gained experience serving architects, designers, developers, contractors, and engineers and we are proud to be a part of creating innovative structures – structures that can withstand environmental stressors and take advantage of the benefits in the environment at the same time. A curtain wall can benefit in many ways:
- This nonstructural addition keeps unwanted elements out while keeping occupants protected.
- A curtain wall is meant to resist incoming air and water infiltration.
- Natural light can reach farther into the interior of the building when glass is used.
- A curtain wall can take advantage of thermal efficiency.
- It is important to note that a curtain wall is designed to span many floors and can also act as a cosmetically pleasing attribute for the finished building design.
