Curtain wall systems

It is an outer covering of a building in which the outer wall are non- structural, but merely keep the weather out and the occupants
in.

A curtain wall is a thin, aluminum-framed wall. It can come with different fillings which include glass, metal panels, or thin stones.
The framing is joined to the building structure. It doesn’t bear the load of the roof or the floor; instead, it relies on the building
structure, specifically at the floor line.

Curtain walls are non structural members and are made of a lightweight material reducing construction costs. When glass is used
as the curtain wall, a great advantage is that natural light can penetrate deeper within the building.

The curtain wall facade does not carry any dead weight from the building other than its own dead load weight.
