Custom Terracotta Cladding Modern Building Facade Materials With High Strength

What is curtain wall and what's materials are used in curtain wall?

A Building facade is also called the Curtain wall. A curtain wall system is an outer covering of a building in which the outer walls are non-structural, but merely keep the weather out and the occupants in. As the curtain wall is non-structural, it can be made of a lightweight material, reducing construction costs. The curtain wall facade does not carry any dead load weight from the building other than its own dead load weight. The wall transfers horizontal wind loads that are incident upon it to the main building structure through connections at floors or columns of the building.

Curtain-wall systems are typically designed with extruded aluminum members. The aluminium frame is infilled with different materials. Infill refers to the large panels that are inserted into the curtain wall between mullions. Infills are typically glass but may be made up of nearly any exterior building element.

The typical Curtain wall infills are Glass, Stone veneer and Metal panels.

The Metal panels can take various forms such as aluminum panels, aluminum composite panels, copper wall cladding etc..

Other opaque panel materials include fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP), PVC panels, and Terracotta panels.
