Modern city skylines are almost inseparable from glass curtain walls. The transparent and lightweight visual effect makes buildings appear more modern. However, a common concern among users is whether glass curtain walls pose risks under wind pressure, earthquakes, or high temperatures.
In fact, glass curtain walls are divided into unitized, framed, and point-supported structures. Their safety depends on design standards and construction quality. High-quality curtain walls not only use high-performance tempered or laminated glass but also require professional sealing and drainage design.
For owners and developers, the pain point lies in high maintenance costs, requiring regular inspection of sealants and support structures. Curtain walls are not only about appearance but also an integral part of the building's safety system.
