A mullion-transom structure has a supporting profiled element on which at least one filling element is retained at an edge, and a pressing strip by which at least one filling element is pressed toward the supporting profiled element. The pressing strip is retained on the supporting profiled element by at least one fastener, which fastener engages in a groove on the supporting profiled element. The groove is formed with an undercut and the at least one fastener is displaceably retained with a head segment in the groove. Preferably, the fastener embodies a bolt connected to a head segment, which head segment is pivotably held in a pre-mounted position on the groove of the supporting profiled element.

A building facade system includes framework having shelf members secured to the floor slabs. The top terminal ends of vertical mullions are fastened to the shelf members, thereby hanging the mullions therefrom. Horizontal support embers fastened to the mullions support infill panels and are coupled to shelf members which are on the below floor slab. Intermediate support members fastened to the mullions support slab edge cover panels. Posts are fastened to the shelf members and are secured to the floor slabs within troughs formed with embedded channels. The posts are horizontally and vertically adjustably fastenable to the shelf members. The shelf members are thereby also horizontally and vertically adjustable relative to the floor slabs. Terminal edges of the floor slabs can project into mullion cutouts.

A front adjustable wall panel mounting device that is adjustable from the front of a wall is disclosed. The front adjustable wall panel mounting device has a fixed channel configured to be coupled with a wall frame and a moving channel configured to be coupled with wall panel mounting hardware. The tilt, depth and vertical height of the wall panel can all be adjusted while the wall panel remains mounted to the wall frame.

A mullion-transom structure includes a support profile upon which two grooves are provided on one side. A sealing strip is fixed on each of grooves. A filling element is held at an edge on each of the sealing strips and a middle groove, on which at least one fastener for holding a pressure strip is fixed, secures the two filling elements. The middle groove has groove walls that are accommodated between the sealing strips. A contact plane of the filling elements on the sealing strips is arranged closer to the pressure strip than the groove walls of the middle groove. The middle groove has a groove base, at which a hollow chamber is formed on the side facing away from the groove.

The invention relates to a facade construction comprising first thermal barrier elements which are arranged on a supporting framework, in particular of an outer wall of a building, second thermal barrier elements which are arranged on the first thermal barrier elements and a retaining device which is arranged on the supporting framework and holds the first and second thermal barrier elements on the supporting framework. The facade device further comprises an intermediate layer in the form of a multiplicity of mounting plates, which intermediate layer is attached to and supported by the retaining device, wherein the second thermal barrier elements are arranged on the intermediate layer.

A front adjustable wall panel mounting device that is adjustable from the front of a wall is disclosed. The front adjustable wall panel mounting device has a fixed channel configured to be coupled with a wall frame and a moving channel configured to be coupled with wall panel mounting hardware. The tilt, depth and vertical height of the wall panel can all be adjusted while the wall panel remains mounted to the wall frame.

A curtain wall panel includes frame with a first frame member defining a channel, a cover configured to extend over the first frame member, a spacer formed of a thermally insulating material, the spacer including a first end, a body, and a second end, the first end being configured to be secured in the channel of the first frame member in a cammed interference fit by rotating a body of the spacer, and the second end being configured to form a cammed interference fit with the cover. An insert is supported from the first frame member by the spacer with the cover fit onto the spacer to capture and secure the insert relative to the frame.

Curtain wall mullion anchoring systems for resisting dead load and negative wind load, and that permit three-way construction tolerance adjustments. The mullion anchoring systems include an anchoring device secured to a building structural element and attached to a mullion connection bridge, which is connected to a mullion connection clip, which is connected to a mullion. Uplifting forces on the anchoring device may be significantly reduced or even eliminated by transmitting dead load under negative wind load conditions from the mullion to the anchoring device at a point over the inside of a concrete floor slab, such that the dead load counteracts any uplifting force generated by the negative wind load.
