Enormous Glass Panels with over 8 metres in height
The existing building looked like a steamship, whose central part, which houses an exhibition area was redeveloped. GIG supplied and installed a vertical wall with an area of approximately 370 m².
The façade consists of a support structure made of sharp-edged steel profiles with welded Raico channels over a height of about 8 m and associated consoles.
The insulated glass panels are partly executed 8 m high. The glass panels are about 3 m wide and secured with hidden structural glazing joints to the steel structure.
Our scope contained in addition various connecting constructions and 6 no’s glazed double leaf doors with a width of 3 m and a height of 2.5 m.
Requirements
XXL Insulated Glass
Transporting and installing XXL insulated glass panels measuring 8x3m for the city center was a task that required meticulous planning and organizational talent. The glass panels were delivered using an inner loader, but at night, as daytime delivery was not permitted. Due to the downtown location of the construction site, there was very limited space available for assembly, as only a small section of the sidewalk could be closed off for mounting. However, with a mounting concept closely coordinated with the customer, the challenge was perfectly resolved by the GIG team.
