What causes the glass of the glass curtain wall to explode?
2024-06-24 Back
When designing curtain wall grids, the following factors need to be considered to ensure the stability, aesthetics and functionality of the curtain wall structure:
1. Structural bearing capacity:
Grid design must take into account the bearing capacity of the overall structure of the curtain wall, ensure that the connection and support between each grid can meet the requirements of the building structure, and ensure overall stability.
2. Wind load and seismic design:
Considering the geographical location and surrounding environment of the curtain wall, the wind load and seismic design requirements must be fully considered to ensure that the grid structure has sufficient wind and seismic resistance in severe weather or natural disasters.
3. Temperature and thermal expansion:
The temperature and thermal expansion coefficients between different grids may be different. The size and spacing of the curtain wall grids need to be reasonably considered to allow glass or metal components to expand and contract freely when the temperature changes, avoiding damage caused by thermal expansion and contraction.
4. Optical effect:
Grid design can create visual hierarchy and aesthetic effects through different shapes, sizes and configurations, considering the proportion, symmetry and arrangement of the grids to make the overall curtain wall look more three-dimensional and attractive.
5. Functional requirements:
According to the use requirements of the building, consider whether the layout of different grids is conducive to indoor lighting, ventilation and visual field maintenance to ensure that the curtain wall design meets the functional requirements.
6. Material selection:
Select appropriate materials for grid design, taking into account the weather resistance, corrosion resistance and maintainability of the materials to ensure that the grid structure maintains a good appearance and performance for a long time.
7. Construction feasibility:
When designing the grid, it is necessary to consider the feasibility and efficiency of the construction, and try to simplify the design and installation methods of the grid structure to ensure a smooth construction process.
Comprehensively considering the above factors and fully communicating and cooperating with architectural designers, structural engineers and curtain wall system suppliers, a curtain wall grid structure that meets the requirements, is beautiful and practical can be designed.
