Curtain Wall System

As the curtain wall is non-structural it can be made of a lightweight material, reduction construction costs. When glass is used as the curtain wall, a great advantage is that natural light can penetrate deeper within the building. A curtain wall is designed to resist air and water infiltration, sway induced by wind and seismic forces acting on the building, and its own dead load forces. GCON uses Hosten FASSADE Series for curtain wall profiles.

Structural Glazing System

Structure Glazing refers to a method of retaining the glass in a window, storefront or curtain wall. Instead of the edges of the glazing being capture in a pocket of the framing and secured in place with gaskets, the structurallyglazed glass is retained on one or more sides by an adhesive, normally silicone.

Spider Glazing System

Spider Glazing is a part of the frame-less glass system where they provide a flush external appearance with uninterrupted views. The spider glazing is designed to resist wind pressure. It can be fixed with either 2 way spiders or 4 way SS spiders fitting options. Fin glass support could also be used to resist wind pressure. Allows full penetration of natural light into the interiors, certain types of glass prevent the absorption of UV light
