Aluminum curtain wall is a type of curtain wall system that is widely used in modern architecture and is divided into two types: visible frame curtain wall and hidden frame curtain wall. Each type of curtain wall has its own characteristics and is suitable for different architectural design needs.
The visible frame curtain wall is a common aluminum curtain wall system that uses aluminum frame as the main body and is filled with glass or other building materials. The visible frame curtain wall is easy to make, easy to install, and easy to maintain. It is suitable for various architectural styles, especially large high-rise buildings. In addition, because the aluminum frame structure of the visible frame curtain wall has a strong sense of hierarchy and three-dimensionality in appearance, it can also enhance the beauty of the building.
The hidden frame curtain wall uses a structure similar to "tempered glass", and the glass panel is fixed in the aluminum frame using structural glue or metal clamps to achieve a frameless effect. The advantage of the hidden frame curtain wall is its simple and high-end appearance, which can bring pure modern beauty to the building. In addition, because the hidden frame curtain wall adopts a frameless design, the joints between the glass panel and the external environment are minimized, which can improve the sealing and wind pressure resistance of the curtain wall.
In summary, visible frame curtain walls and hidden frame curtain walls have their own advantages in different architectural design scenarios. Generally speaking, visible frame curtain walls are suitable for various architectural design styles, especially large high-rise buildings. Hidden frame curtain walls are suitable for modern and simple architectural styles, such as commercial centers, hotels, villas, etc. At the same time, according to different environmental requirements, designers can also combine the two types of curtain walls to achieve a more perfect architectural design effect.
