Wood Based Curtain Wall as a Complex Task in Building Physics

摘要

The article deals with the development of a system solution for replacement of old curtain walls at nonresidential buildings from sixties and seventies 20th century. The main idea was to develop a prefabricated system using modern wood products as an alternative to usual metallic constructions. It is demonstrated that without a complex analysis in building physics and measurements no successful development would be possible. A first article in Bauphysik 1/2017 was focused on construction, thermal performance and environment oriented assessments. Other important topics, e.g. noise protection, fire safety and moisture protection, are the subjects of this paper.
