Complex Glazing of Facades
Facade Glazing Technologies
Energy saving, light transmittance and high reliability of structures are three parameters making aluminum facades particularly popular.
Mullion-transom Glazing
The mullion-transom system is an enclosing facade structure consisting of a metal vertical-horizontal frame and translucent filling.
The frame of the system is formed using vertical profiles – mullions, to which horizontal transoms are attached.
The multiple glazed units are fixed to the supporting frame using press strips, onto which decorative covers are then installed.
The use of such a system allows to create complex shapes with a tilt-and-turn system, floor-to-ceiling glazing with pivot elements, and implement any other unique tasks.

Semi-closed (Semi-structural) Mullion-transom
Semi-structural glazing is one of the variations of mullion-transom structure with elements of a structural system.
As in a standard mullion-transom system, a supporting structure of vertical and horizontal profiles is used here, however, the wide press strips typical of a mullion-transom system are not used.
A structural multiple glazed unit (which makes the semi-structural system similar to the structural one) is fixed to the mullion-transom frame using a spacer frame; the external seams are sealed with silicone.
Visually, this structure is virtually identical to a more expensive structural system.
However, unlike its close relative, a semi-structural system also provides the possibility of fastening large-sized multiple glazed units using a narrow press strip. In this case, not structural, but ordinary multiple glazed units are used, which significantly reduces the cost of the system.

Structural Glazing System
A technology for installing multiple glazed units in order to create a smooth surface
without visible fastening elements.
Multiple glazed units are fixed to the mullion-transom system using glue,
and the joints and seams are filled with sealant, so the profiles are invisible along the facade.
The glass is fastened at a distance of 1–2 cm, which creates the effect of a monolithic structure, while the structure does not look heavy.

Modular (Element) Glazing
An element or modular facade is a facade glazing system consisting of ready-made blocks that are manufactured at a factory and may include opening sashes, window sill elements, air conditioning systems, etc.
Facade blocks are assembled at a factory from aluminum profiles, multiple glazed units and additional elements provided for by the project. Ready-made blocks are delivered to the site in special packaging that prevents damage during transportation. At the site, the blocks are lifted by crane to the desired storey and installed from inside the room on pre-prepared bearing elements.
The height of the modules is equal to the height of the storey and corresponds to the distance between the storeys.
The joining of elements to each other is also carried out from inside the building, as a result of which there is no need to set up scaffolding, and installation work can be carried out in any weather. Modular systems are used mainly in multistorey buildings from 10 to 100 storeys.

Helpful Information
The shape of the glazing elements can have a more original geometry, for example, in the form of honeycombs or polygons.
It is possible to manufacture three-dimensional structures, vertical and angled systems

Standard sliding and window-door elements are easily integrated into the facades.
They can also be equipped with specially designed built-in elements
They can also be equipped with specially designed built-in elements
The structures have any required level of thermal insulation, up to the passive house standard
The structures are automated, connected to alarm systems, centralized monitoring and control systems.
In facade glazing, the use of heated glass on the roof is popular.
This will solve the problem of ice freezing, as well as the occurrence of streaks from precipitations.

distances between them, you can get rid of many problems
and increase the level of comfort.
distances between them, you can get rid of many problems
and increase the level of comfort.
The area of a multiple glazed unit makes up about 90% of the aluminum structure and largely affects its insulating properties.
Key parameters affecting the operational characteristics of a multiple glazed unit:
- glass thickness
- number of glasses
- coating and thickness of glass panels
- chamber filling
