SG50 For Structural Glazing

CATEGORY

Curtain Walling

Description

The SG50 system is particularly well-suited for constructing curtain walls that have openable elements in the structural protruding type. The aesthetic cleanliness of the system allows for its use in an integral structural solution, or in a mixed solution that includes an external aluminum cover, to meet architectural requirements and highlight the horizontal or vertical nature of the structure. 

The SG50 façade uses the same mullion and transom grid as the SL50 system, ensuring a structural all-glass appearance achieved through the fixing of the glass with cams that block the internal pane. 

The visible joint between the glasses measures .83”.
