Architect's Design Studio

Curtain Wall and Entrances

Using the Architect's Design Studio (ADS) we can select curtain wall systems from many different vendors in different sizes and types.  Select structural silicone glaze, front glazed and standard curtain wall systems from 4" to 12"deep and even select all glass walls that use the structure spyder connections at the joints to make a glass wall for maximum visibility.

Configure Curtain Wall Systems:

Vendor - Configure curtain wall using standard metal systems from Kawneer, Efco, Tubelite and many more.

Design Stile - Aluminum system 1 or 2, Structural Silicone Glazed, Low Rise Curtain Wall in varying thickness and sizes.

Entrances - Configure curtain wall entrances adding hardware for push pulls, butt hinge, offset pivot, concealed exit, rim panic, locks and much more. 

Configurator- Edit your design adjusting position of verticals, horizontals, daylight openings and adding doors.

Glass - add specific glazing to each individual panel.  Spandrel, tempered, annealed, low-e and mirrors are just a few selections available..       

When selecting the curtain wall elevations, details of each product will be imported directly into the BIM model and in the materials list.  Framing around entrances will automatically adjust to pick up the standard door framing for the selected metal system.  Adapters and pocket fillers are added to the correct locations once an entrance is configured..

When making selections, product data is displayed to the right as well as tabs for a product model that shows the curtain wall based on all configurations selected.
