The properties and treatment of glass, fixing systems and the different types of facades are described in depth and are illustrated by realized architectural examples. Intelligent glass facades are based on integral concepts which incorporate natural ventilation, night cooling, the optimum use of daylight and the creation of buffer zones as energy-saving measures.Product Identifiers
