Curtain walling at par with
Technal curtain walling provided by Everglade Windows.
Technal is an operating division of Hydro Building Systems - Europe's largest aluminium building systems company, which is part of Hydro Aluminium - the world's third largest aluminium company.
Curtain walling is a term used to describe a building façade which does not carry any dead load from the building other than its own dead load, and one which transfers the horizontal loads (wind loads) that are incident upon it. These loads are transferred to the main building structure through connections at floors or columns of the building.
A curtain wall is designed to resist air and water infiltration, wind forces acting on the building, seismic forces (usually only those imposed by the inertia of the curtain wall), and its own dead load forces.
Curtain walls differ from storefront systems in that they are designed to span multiple floors, and take into consideration design requirements such as: thermal expansion and contraction; building sway and movement; water diversion; and thermal efficiency for cost-effective heating, cooling, and lighting in the building.
In the UK, Technal is deemed as an autonomous business with the flexibility to develop products and services in response to the specific requirements of the U.K. market.
