Installation method of Frame supported glass curtain wall
The vertical frame (or horizontal beam) of the frame curtain wall is first installed on the main structure, and then the horizontal beam (or vertical frame) is installed. The vertical frame and the horizontal beam form a frame. The panel material is processed into unit components in the factory and then fixed on the frame composed of vertical frame and horizontal beam. The load borne by the panel material unit component must be transferred to the main structure through the vertical frame (or horizontal beam). The more common form of this structure is: after the vertical frame and the horizontal beam are installed on site to form a frame, the panel material unit component is fixed on the frame. The panel material unit component is vertically connected to the column and horizontally connected to the horizontal beam, and the joint is treated with sealant to prevent rainwater penetration and air penetration.
