Why choose steel?
-
Three times the wind load capacity of a standard aluminum curtain wall
-
Three times the modulus of elasticity of aluminum, allowing for smaller profiles
-
Superior thermal performance and reduced thermal expansion than aluminum
-
Significantly larger spans of glazing than traditional aluminum systems
-
Water-tight curtain wall framing joints with no visible weld bead
-
Low maintenance system
Given steel’s strength, it seems like the natural material of choice to support glazed curtain walls. However, aluminum has been dominant since the mid-1900s outperforming steel with its lightweight, versatile and corrosion-resistant properties.
Today, due to developments in manufacturing processes, steel framing is reemerging as a high-performance material in glazed curtain walls. It surpasses traditional aluminum framing systems in terms of free span size, narrow sightlines and design flexibility.
