Structural Glazings

Structural glazing is an innovative architectural technique where glass is used as a structural element of a building's façade, providing both aesthetic appeal and structural support. Unlike traditional glazing, which is often applied as a non-load-bearing component, structural glazing systems are designed to bear loads and contribute to the overall stability of the building.This approach typically involves the use of specialized adhesives and hardware to attach glass panels to a supporting Aluminium frame or structure, creating a seamless, transparent surface that enhances natural light and visibility while maintaining high structural integrity.

  • Structural glazing integrates glass into the building’s load-bearing system for both aesthetics and support.

  • Specialized adhesives and fittings are used to attach glass panels to the structural framework.

  • This technique allows for larger glass surfaces with minimal visual interruptions.

  • It enhances natural light penetration and visual transparency in buildings.

  • Structural glazing can contribute to improved thermal and acoustic performance.
