    This document discusses curtain walls and cladding materials used in building facades. It describes that curtain walls are non-structural outer coverings of buildings, constructed of lightweight materials like glass, metal panels, and stone veneer. Glass is one of the most commonly used materials, and modern curtain walls are often designed with extruded aluminum frames. The document also discusses different types of glass, joinery methods using aluminum sections and sealants, and cladding materials like aluminum composite panels, tiles, and stone.

    CURTAIN WALL
    non structural ,outer covering of a building.
    Basically constructed with light wt. Materials.
    To provide ample amount of light into the interior
    spaces.
    does not carry anydead load weightfrom the
    building other than its own dead load weight.
    Material used mostly glass, stone veneer, metal
    panels,louvers, fabric veneer, stone veneer, panels
    etc.
    Curtain Wall Systems are typically designed with
    extruded aluminum members, although the first
    curtain walls were made of steel.

    GLASS
    Most commonly used in structures.
    first curtain walls were made with steelmullionand
    the plate glass was attached to the mullions with
    asbestos or fiberglass modified glazing compound.
    Glass may be used which is
    transperent,translucent or opaque, or in varying
    degrees.
    glasscan be of an almost infinite combination of
    colour, thickness, andopacity.
    Presently these glass curtain wall basically
    supported on allumium sections.

    This building
    Have front facade
    With whole
    Curtain wall
    From which
    Internal members
    Are easily availabl

    JOINARY

    ainly the joinery done with aluminium box sections which are joined with the help
    angle sections by simple nailing method.
    n between these glass panels silicone sealant is filled acting as a joinery materia
    hesive.

    Framework of aluminium supports the whole systems.

    Glass
    Thickness- 5- 6 m.m.
    Prise- 65 rs./sq. Ft.
    Toughened glass
    Thickness- 5- 6 m.m.
    Prise- 150 rs./sq. Ft.
    Aluminium box sectiondimension- 2x 2
    Prise- 450 rs./running meter
    Glazing barsTop rail- 3500 rs./m.
    Bottom rail with lock- 4000rs./m.

    instead of steel section Aluminium offers the


    unique advantage of being able to be easily
    extruded into nearly any shape required for design
    and aesthetic purposes.
    For commercial construction, the two most
    common thicknesses are 6mm monolithic and
    1inch 25mminsulating glass.
    Sometimes for better insulation double layer of
    glass is provided with adequate air space for
    insulation.
    Curtain walls are also done with the help of spider
    joints.

    These spider joints


    Hold two panels of glass
    Side by side.

    Sometimes four armed


    Spider joints are also used
    To hold four panels togethe

    One way spider- 2800 rs./ pc .


    Two way spider at 180 degree- 3500 rs./ pc
    Two way spider at 90 degree- 3500 rs./ pc
    Three way spider 4200 rs./ pc

    ALUMINIUM COMPOSITE
    PANELS
    Aluminium Composite Panel Cladding (ACP)is a widelyused term, describing flat panels that consist of
    thermoplastic core bonded between two aluminium
    sheets.

    frequently used for external cladding of buildings


    (building facades).

    it is very rigid and strong, despite of its light weight


    various thickness.
    Available in any colour, produced in a wide range of
    metallic and non-metallic colours.
    patterns that imitate other materials, such as wood or
    marble.

    ACP sheet are excellent in finish and are PVDF


    coated which is up to 35 micron.
    It can be bent, cut, drilled, punched and easily
    shaped into complex shapes. Easy installation and
    fabrication save cost and time periods of
    construction.

    ADVANTAGES
    modern look and excellent flatness.
    Light weight.
    Sound insulation and pollution resistant.
    Acid, alkali and salt spray resistant.
    Smooth paint finish and stability of flatness.
    Excellent UV characteristics.
    Resistant to blow and breakage.
    Minimizes vibration noise.
    Heat insulation
    Ease of installation and fabrication.
    Easy maintenance.
    Various colour choice.

    Joinery of a.c.p. Sheets


    Is similar to the glass
    Curtains, on aluminium
    Sections.
    But the bevelled edges
    Are provided for
    fixing of sheets
    From one another.

    ACP sheets
    Thickness- 4m.m.
    Prise- 75-85 rs./sq.ft.
    Pressure tap
    450 rs. Per roll
    Silicon sealant
    250 per tube

    CLADDING
    Claddingis the application of one material over
    another to provide a skin or layer on main wall .
    Mainly done for aesthetic purposes
    Provide waterproofing membrane on exposed
    surface of building.
    Mainly cladding is done in different material.
    It is done in different materials-

    Tile size -2ft.x1ft. (600m.m.x300m.m.)


    Prise- 110 rs./sq.ft.

    Mosaic tiles size300m.m.x150m.m.

    Tile prise- 85- 120 /sq.ft.

    Tile size-300m.m.x300m.m.
    Tile prise-450 rs/sq.ft.

    The joinery is done with adhesives or epox


    Adhesives spread on net back of tile then
    Paste it on wall.

    Granite stone tile


    Thickness- 12m.m. & 20 m.m.
    Prise- 100-120 rs/sq. Ft. For 12 m.m. Th. , 180 250
