Glass curtain walls refer to housing glass or metal panels made from lightweight aluminum-framed façades. They are wind-resistant materials that are used as a part of a building envelop or consist of a part of the wall system. Glass curtain walls are found in standard prefabricated systems and customized wall units in larger sizing, depending on the requirement of the customer. They provide a viable glazing solution to both commercial and residential applications by offering a sleek and modern look and allowing natural light to enter the building. In recent years, glass curtain walls have gained traction as they are constructed and designed to prevent air and water filtration and protect the building structure from wind and forces due to earthquakes and other vibrations.
