Non-Structural – Does not support the building's weight; only carries its own load and environmental forces.
Lightweight – Typically made of aluminum frames with glass, metal, or stone panels.
Energy Efficiency – Can incorporate double or triple glazing, low-emissivity (Low-E) coatings, and thermal breaks to improve insulation.
Aesthetic Flexibility – Allows for sleek, modern designs with large glass expanses or customized panel finishes.
Weather Resistance – Designed to prevent water and air infiltration while withstanding wind loads.
Frames: Aluminum (lightweight, corrosion-resistant).
Glazing: Tempered, laminated, or insulated glass (for safety and efficiency).
Spandrel Panels: Metal, stone, or terracotta (to hide floor slabs).
