Curtain Wall Engineering in Vancouver

CURTAIN WALL SYSTEMS

Curtain wall systems, which can be stick-built or unitized, are typically used in commercial applications, where the desired aesthetic is a complete glass enclosure. This look is achieved by continuously spanning the curtain wall in front of the floor slabs. 

​

Our expertise helps to ensure that the curtain wall systems can withstand project-specific environmental conditions, such as wind loads and seismic movement. Then, once the system has been analyzed for these loads, we help to facilitate the successful integration of the curtain wall into the primary structure.
