An energy-saving security composite window comprising a peripheral side frame and glass installed on the side frame, in which the side frame is of composite structure. A rectangular high strength metal pipe is located centrally to serve as a main body of the side frame and a cavity of the rectangular high-strength metal pipe is filled with a filling material. A plurality of non-metal profiles are respectively fixed on an outer surface of the rectangular high-strength metal pipe, and an installation groove for installing glass is formed between the rectangular high strength metal pipe and the non-metal profile. An external profile is a metal alloy material, a wooden material, a plastic material, or a glass material fixed on an outer surface of the non-metal profile. The performances of external windows of buildings, such as heat insulation, heat preservation, energy saving, sound insulation, and wind pressure resistance, is improved.

The invention relates to a cover assembly for covering a frame, a frame and an opening frame or two opening frames of at least one window, comprising a first profiled cover which can be secured to the frame or to one of the opening frames and by means of which an outer cladding can be secured. The profiled cover at least partly covers the frame, the frame and the at least one opening frame or the two opening frames, and the outer cladding connected to the profiled cover covers the profiled cover and the frame or the frame and the opening frame or the two opening frames.

Invention pertains to construction and installation methods for construction and renovation of production, public and residential buildings, in particular, to translucent barriers, therein windows, stained glass, glass facing, indoor winter gardens, atriums, clerestories, greenhouses, doors, indoor baffles and other structures both indoor and outdoor. Therein also may be integrated a solar panel, and electric heating elements, dehumidifier. The engineering advantage of the invention is an improved heat insulation design, protection from both outdoor cold and excessive heat from the sun, an improved resistance to fluctuations of temperature, improved noise cancellation, absence of a condensate at the glass surfaces, increased glazing area without traditionally associated heat loss, absence of a freezing of reveals, improved reliability regarding breaking in, reduced integrity loss risk resulting from fire (fire resistance), reduced convection and consequently increased isolation properties due to greater spacing between glass sheets, increased containment, simplicity of installation and replacement (repair) of IGU modules without disruption outer shell of the building (heating contour of the building) due to partial disassembly of the structure, increased resistance to potential impacts in transportation and installation. Translucent structure according to invention contains at least four glass sheets, joined together in at least two independent IGU modules (IGUs), each containing at least two parallel glass sheets distanced 10-1000 mm, the glass sheets in IGUs are glued together by a spacer frame and a sealant, and IGUs themselves are joined together by a thermo insulation reinforced frame, creating a sealed chamber in between IGUs.
