Stick Curtain Walling (SWC) may be defined as non-load bearing walls, usually suspended in front of structural steel or concrete framing. The term “stick” refers to the factory-cut mullions and transoms which are transported to the site as loose bars and sticks. Stick glass curtain walling is a type of non-load bearing wall often used in front of structural steel or concrete framing. The term "stick" refers to the factory-cut mullions and transoms transported to the site as open bars and sticks. Stick glass curtain walling offers several advantages over other types of curtain walling, including its flexibility and ease of installation. Stick glass curtain walling can also provide excellent thermal insulation and acoustic performance.

    Benefits of Curtain Wall Facades: The use of curtain walls in commercial building designs became an enduring trend for many aesthetic and energy efficiency reasons. Curtain walls are an enduring trend in commercial building design for various reasons, including aesthetics and energy efficiency.


    Natural Lighting: Just as large windows allowed natural light into interior spaces, curtain walls flooded the interiors with natural light. When glass walls replaced masonry construction in commercial buildings, the depth and reach of light penetration improved, reducing the need for artificial lighting and consequently, cutting down on lighting bills. Additionally, windowless areas toward the middle of the floor became appealing and usable workspaces.


    Lightening:

    When it comes to natural lighting, curtain walls allow for significantly more light penetration than their masonry predecessors, reducing the need for artificial lighting and saving energy costs. Additionally, windowless areas that would typically be dark and uninviting become appealing and usable spaces when flooded with natural light. From a practical standpoint, curtain walls are also easier to maintain than traditional masonry construction.


    Aesthetics:

    In addition to the functional benefits of curtain walls, their sleek, modern aesthetic is also highly appealing. Large glass panels give a sense of openness and airiness to a space, which is perfect for commercial buildings that want to convey an image of being cutting-edge and forward-thinking.

    Control of Air Leakage: An aluminum-framed curtain wall is designed to be airtight. In a properly sealed system, the air barrier is continuous from the glass panel to the mullions and the seals. When it comes to air leakage, a curtain wall's aluminum frame creates a continuous barrier from the glass panel to the mullions and seals. This prevents outside air from entering the interior space and keeps conditioned air from escaping. In addition, the curtain wall's tight seal helps to keep pollen, dust, and other airborne contaminants out of the building.


    Control of Rain and Moisture Intrusion: The airtight design prevents rain intrusion that could lead to costly cleanup and repairs. The glass, aluminum and sealant components of a curtain wall do not allow for absorption or evaporation of moisture, keeping moisture out of the interior section. The components are corrosion resistant except for some seals, which may degrade if left soaking for some time.


    Moisture control :

    Rain and moisture intrusion can be a significant problem for any building, but it is especially problematic for those with glass facades. If water is allowed to enter the interior space, it can lead to costly cleanup and repairs. However, a curtain wall's airtight design prevents this from happening. The glass, aluminum, and sealant components of a curtain wall do not allow for absorption or evaporation of moisture, keeping the interior space dry.

    Control Heat Loss or Gain: The use of insulating glass in curtain wall installations can improve thermal qualities. A well-constructed glass curtain can enhance energy efficiency and reduce the costs of heating and cooling in a commercial building.


    Maintenance of Curtain Walls: Curtain walls should be inspected regularly to ensure the integrity of seals, mullions and the glass itself. Glass replacement and panel repairs should be handled by professionals experienced in this work such as the glass experts at Apple Glass. Call Apple Glass for your commercial glass requirements today. The company also provides Houston windshield replacement services.

    The Stick Glass Curtain Wall


    This is the earlier design of curtain wall technology. The wall is installed piece by piece. Usually, the mullion members (which is vertical member) are installed first, followed in turn by the transom members (which is horizontal rail member), and finally the glazing or window units. However, in designs accenting the horizontal lines the process may be altered to first install the larger transoms. In either case, the transom and mullion members are often long sections designed to either be interrupted or extended through at their intersections. The stick wall system was used extensively in the early years of metal curtain wall development, and is still widely used in greatly improved versions. Some contractors consider it to be superior to other systems. The characteristics of this system are its relatively low shipping and handling costs, because of minimal bulk, and the fact that it allows some degree of dimensional adjustment to site conditions. Its disadvantages are the necessity of assembly in the construction site, rather than under controlled factory conditions, and the fact that pre-glazing is obviously impossible. Framing Extrusions are commercially available so need to pay new die or profile. Most façade contractor is familiar with system. Suitable for storefronts and small areas.

    The stick wall system was used extensively in the early- to mid-twentieth century for office buildings, banks, and other commercial structures. Its advantages include flexibility in design and the ability to accommodate changes during construction. However, the stick system has several disadvantages. It is more labor-intensive and thus more expensive than other curtain wall systems and more susceptible to wind and seismic loads. In addition, the joints between members are potential sources of water infiltration. The stick system is no longer the most popular choice for curtain wall construction, but it is still used in some circumstances. When a project requires a high degree of customization or the building's structure cannot support the weight of a more modern curtain wall system, the stick system may be the best option. The system is composed of framing commercially available extrusions, so there is no need to pay for a new die or profile.

    2Q: What is Stick Curtain Wall System?

    A: In this type of curtain wall system, the components are assembled piece by piece on the structure of the building. This system is mainly used for low-rise buildings or in small regions. This is due to the fact that for reaching higher elevations it is important to have exterior access. This system promises flexibility as it gives space for onsite adjustments. Though it has the advantage of low shipping costs, the labor and time consumption should not be underestimated as tend to run quite high.

    3Q: What is the difference between stick curtain wall and unitized curtain wall?

    A: In a stick system, the curtain-wall frame (mullions) and glass or opaque panels are installed and connected together piece by piece. In the unitized system, the curtain wall is composed of large units that are assembled and glazed in the factory, shipped to the site, and erected on the building.
