Unitized Curtain Wall
Definition:
A unitized curtain wall system is renowned for its efficient production timeline, high manufacturing quality, and exceptional overall performance. It enables simultaneous execution of on-site civil works and off-site fabrication of unitized panels, significantly accelerating project completion.
This system involves factory assembly of all components—such as cladding panels and structural supports—into complete modular units. These pre-assembled units are transported to the construction site, hoisted into position, and accurately secured to the building’s primary structure using embedded connection systems. Final adjustments ensure precise alignment and integration.
Features:
Integrated module installation: Full unitized panels are lifted and mounted, enabling rapid assembly and reduced on-site construction time.
Concurrent construction: Installation progresses in parallel with main structural activities, shortening the overall project schedule.
High-level prefabrication: Components are engineered with tight tolerances and manufactured under controlled factory conditions, ensuring dimensional accuracy and consistent quality.
Movement accommodation: Interlocking joints between units effectively absorb deformations caused by thermal fluctuations, inter-story drift, and seismic events.
Precise alignment: The interlocking connection system ensures high installation accuracy and a flush, uniform exterior surface.
Advanced sealing technology: EPDM gaskets replace conventional sealants, providing durable weather sealing and a clean, continuous aesthetic appearance.
Key Benefits:
Reduced project duration
Superior quality control
Enhanced resistance to environmental and structural forces
Streamlined on-site operations and improved safety
Long-term performance with minimal maintenance
