BUILDING CPD ARCHITECTURAL ALUMINIUM GLAZING SYSTEMS

摘要

As the performance criteria for architectural glazing systems become ever more stringent, aluminium offers an effective way of meeting and exceeding these standards. Glazing systems must not only offer thermal and sustainable performance, but comply with a wide array of other standards on ventilation, security, acoustics, weathering performance and durability. Aluminium is a proven material for high-performing window, door and other glazing systems. It offers a unique set of properties including strength, durability, versatility, as well as sustainability. Modern thermal break technology also enables aluminium to be used in some of the highest performing thermal solutions available for modern building facades. This module will provide an introduction to the design requirements for aluminium glazing systems.
