Curtain wall, structural glazing & specialist façade systems

Glass façades require close coordination between appearance, structural movement, weather performance, buildability and maintenance. ALU-MS brings experience across a range of glazed envelope systems and associated metal works.

What we can support

Curtain wall & unitized glazing

Support for system layouts, modules, project interfaces, engineering coordination and installation.

Spider & point-supported glazing

Architectural glazed entrances, lobbies and feature elements with point-supported glass.

Skylights & glass canopies

Overhead glass and architectural canopy systems with attention to drainage, access and support details.

Complementary envelope systems

ACP, fins, louvers, aluminium doors, windows and cladding interfaces.

How we approach a façade project

Our approach combines constructability, technical coordination and site experience. Actual systems and responsibilities depend on the scope agreed with each client.

  1. Establish performance criteria, movement allowances, access conditions and architectural intent.
  2. Review glass types, framing interfaces and applicable structural requirements.
  3. Coordinate design details with the primary structure and adjoining envelope elements.
  4. Plan testing, installation methods and site quality checks relevant to the selected system.

Common questions from clients

What is the difference between curtain wall and spider glazing?

Curtain wall typically uses a continuous framing system; spider or point-supported glazing uses discrete fittings and structural support. Selection depends on geometry and performance requirements.

Can you support a curved or unusual glass façade?

We can review specialist glazing geometry, support arrangements and coordination requirements based on design documents.

Can you combine glazed façades with ACP and louvers?

Yes. Many building envelopes involve these interfaces, which must be coordinated for movement, weathering and installation.
