A curtain wall system includes a vertical member and a horizontal member coupled to the vertical member at a joint. A vertical bridge gasket is coupled to the vertical member and includes a vertically-extending interior gasket, a vertically-extending thermal break gasket, and a vertical bridge member extending between the vertically-extending interior and thermal break gaskets. A horizontal bridge gasket is coupled to the horizontal member and joined to the vertical bridge gasket at a corner joint, the horizontal bridge gasket includes a horizontally-extending interior gasket, a horizontally-extending thermal break gasket, and a horizontal bridge member extending between the horizontally-extending interior and thermal break gaskets. The vertical and horizontal bridge gaskets cover the joint between the vertical and horizontal members.

A method for producing of a tubular sealing element for sealing a safing slot in a curtain wall construction is described, particularly for sealing the slot with regard to noise, smoke, and fire and if applicable with regard to water, and an apparatus for producing such a tubular sealing element, as well as to the use of the tubular sealing element produced according to the invention for fire-, smoke-, sound- and water-proof sealing of perimeter joints in curtain wall constructions are described. In particular, an improved method for continuous and endless production of a tubular sealing element for different safing slot dimensions is described.

The present invention relates to a connective installation structure for modularized windows and doors, the connective installation structure successively arranging and connectively installing, in the horizontal direction, modularized sliding-type doors and windows, doors, or door-type windows that form the window and doors of a building, with fixed windows arranged in the spaces between the windows and doors. The present invention provides the connective installation structure for modularized windows and doors so as to provide a simplified double frame support structure in which the connective structure lateral section view of the frame, formed by the elevation view of the elements that form the connective installation structure of windows and doors, comprises just (window glass or door panel)—window sash frame—window frame—(fixed window glass), the connective installation structure for windows and doors successively arranging and connectively installing, in the horizontal direction, the sliding-type windows, doors, or door-type windows.

An approved dynamic construction is used for effectively thermally insulating and sealing of a safing slot between a floor of a building and an exterior wall construction, wherein the exterior wall construction includes a curtain wall configuration defined by an interior wall glass surface including one or more aluminum framing members, wherein the vision glass extends to the finished floor level below. The dynamic, thermally insulating and sealing system includes a first element for receiving the insulating elements and positioned in the zero spandrel area of a glass curtain wall construction including only vision glass to maintain thermally insulating and sealing of the safing slot during exposure to fire and heat as well as movement in order to maintain a complete seal extending across the sating slot.

Described is an approved dynamic construction for effectively thermally insulating and sealing of a safing slot between a floor of a building and an exterior wall construction wherein the exterior wall construction comprises a curtain wall configuration defined by an interior wall surface. The dynamic, thermally insulating and sealing system comprises a tubular sealing element having wing-like connection areas for attaching the tubular sealing element to the curtain wall construction and the floor of a building, to maintain thermally insulating and sealing of the safing slot during exposure to fire and heat as well as movement in order to maintain a complete seal extending across the safing slot and to enhance the water-stopping properties of the insulation and seal within the safing slot.

A toggle insert for receiving a toggle assembly in a steel curtain wall structure is disclosed. The toggle insert is a self-leveling profile requiring no welding for fastening to steel curtain wall structure and further provides a screw tolerance of up to 1 inch for locating and fastening toggle screws during installation of glazing elements to the steel curtain wail structure. The toggle insert includes a horizontal section having a front portion, an intermediate portion and a bottom portion, wherein the front portion includes a central elongated opening measuring between 21 mm and 25 mm sandwiched on either sides by slotted screw race and a pair of threaded set screws for leveling into the slotted screw race that fixes the toggle insert by way of wedging into the steel curtain wall structure.

A curtain wall constructed from prefabricated connecting wall elements mounted in rows next to and above each other with the wall elements including a frame of assembled profiles on the inside of the curtain wall and of one or more infill elements on the outside of the curtain wall. The frame contains mullions and transoms in the form of profiles which along the perimeter of the frame have female coupling parts and male coupling parts which allow the adjacent mullions and adjacent transoms in an assembled condition in the curtain wall to engage with their coupling parts to form composite basic profiles, where between two rows of connecting wall elements a horizontal seal has been applied which extends continuously in a horizontal direction over the width of the underlying row.
