Product introduction of Spider Glazing Point-fixed glass curtain wall:
Spider Glazing Point-fixed glass curtain wall is a curtain wall system primarily composed of glass panels, with stainless steel connectors or metal support structures to secure the panels to the building structure. Spider Glazing Point-fixed glass curtain wall utilizes a point-supported structure, resulting in a lightweight overall structure and high transparency from the large expanse of glass panels. Spider Glazing Point-fixed glass curtain wall is widely used on the exterior walls of high-end commercial buildings such as airports, exhibition centers, and office buildings.
Structural Components of Spider Glazing Point supported glass curtain wall:
Glass Panels: Spider Glazing Point-fixed glass curtain wall utilizes high-strength tempered glass, laminated glass, or insulating glass, typically with thicknesses ranging from 8mm to 24mm. Customization is possible based on project requirements and individual client specifications.
Joints: Spider Glazing Point-fixed glass curtain wall's connecting structure utilizes SUS304/SUS316 stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance and structural strength, making it a weatherproof exterior wall.
Joints and Adapters: Spider Glazing Point-fixed glass curtain wall's joints connect to the main structure via ball joints, tie rods, or support tubes. The overall design, meticulously calculated by the etaifeng team, ensures uniform stress distribution across the glass.
Sealing System: Spider Glazing Point-fixed glass curtain wall utilizes high-performance weather-resistant silicone structural adhesive and UV-resistant sealant throughout, ensuring excellent airtightness and waterproofing.
Key Performance Indicators of Spider Glazing Point supported glass curtain wall:
Wind Pressure Resistance: Based on structural mechanics calculations and field testing, it can withstand a force 12 typhoon (≥4.0kPa).
Airtightness: Meets GB/T 7106-2019 standard level 8.
Watertightness: Point-fixed glass facade utilizes high-quality sealant, achieving a sealing performance of at least level 6, effectively preventing water seepage and making it ideal for building exterior walls.
Seismic Resistance: Flexible joint connections absorb deformation, making it suitable for use in buildings in earthquake-prone areas, with exceptional earthquake resistance.
Energy Saving and Insulation: Point-fixed glass facade can be equipped with optional Low-E insulating glass, achieving energy savings of over 30%.

FAQs:
1. What is the difference between Spider Glazing Point supported glass curtain wall and framed curtain walls?
Spider Glazing Point supported glass curtain wall uses large expanses of glass panels, secured with a metal frame, making the metal frame virtually invisible and providing greater transparency. Framed curtain walls, on the other hand, use aluminum profiles to support the glass, resulting in a relatively heavy structure and significant visual obstruction.
2. What types of buildings are suitable for your Point-fixed glass facade?
Etaifeng's Point-fixed glass facade can be used in the exterior walls of large shopping malls and public buildings. We can design flat, curved, and custom-shaped curtain wall structures, providing tailored solutions tailored to the architectural style and load requirements.
3. How is Point supported glass curtain wall safety guaranteed?
Etaifeng's Point supported glass curtain wall utilizes high-strength tempered or laminated safety glass, coupled with a SUS304/SUS316 stainless steel coupling system. These panels undergo structural mechanics calculations and destructive testing by our professional design team.
4. Do you provide design and installation support for Point-fixed glass facade?
Yes.
