Glass Structural Walls Description

Glass + Metal Craft excels at designing and fabricating simple-to-challenging engineered glass structural walls – from tight geometries changing panel-to-panel, to custom hardware, to systems minimizing metal supports such as cable-supported walls.

Two recent examples.

Selected to fabricate the glass and supporting hardware for the renovation of offices of a leading architect, G+MC determined the best sequence for installing curved glass into existing wood structures – each slightly different one to the next – then digitized the dimensions into its large format CNC lathe for precise cutting. In all, 50 radius panels were fabricated using ½-inch tempered Guardian© glass.

To provide a three-story glass accent to a major university stadium, G+MC delivered a roof and point-supported wall consist of laminated, insulated, screen-printed, coated glass with integrated custom stainless fittings. The glass structural wall extends away from the stadium at an angle, while also fanning out. As a result, each varying trapezoidal IG panel had to be cut to extreme tolerances. Further, the holes for the insulated point support bushings located inside the glass panels were drilled to precise specifications.

With that in mind, what challenges can we solve and deliver for you?
