Structura DUO+  External point-fixed structural glazing

Structura DUO+ Product Description

Product Description

!   Structura® is the name of a range of point-fixed glazing systems developed by AGC. Structura structural glazing systems consist of various types of glazing and the necessary fittings.

!   Structura DUO is an optimal facade system, specifically designed for insulated double-glazing.

Product Description

!   Structura DUO+ features a special new composite material which replaces the aluminium ring spacer, thus improving the spacer and seal.

!   Structura DUO+ is the new generation of Structura DUO for cold climates, designed to prevent condensation on metallic fixtures and thus ensure that it can comply with regulations prevailing in northern European countries.

!   Structura DUO+ reduces thermal bridges and therefore heat loss.

Structura DUO+ Performance & Benefits

Performance & Benefits

!   The new Structura DUO+ system has a high thermal transmittance value; Uw (U value for the facade: glass & window system) value of 1.3! •  Better than most standard facade solutions in aluminium •  Opens up new opportunities for architects to design major projects in cold climates

•  No condensation on inner surfaces in areas with a cold climate (for following conditions: ext. temp. -15°C; int. temp. +20°C; humidity 45-60%)

•  Ideal for large areas requiring maximum light and transparency

Performance & Benefits

!   Provides a broad view of the surrounding environment

!   Thin and insulated gap between adjacent panes

!   Perfectly smooth surface on the outside

!   Gas filling possibility (argon, krypton, etc.) to decrease the Ug value and thus improve thermal insulation

!   Independant structural behavior of glass panes

!   Static and dynamic loads taken by both glasses

!   Fast and easy installation for experienced installer

!   Suitable for freeform 3D structures (trapeziums)
