Dynamic, fire-resistance-rated thermally insulating and sealing system having a F-rating of 120 min for use with curtain wall structures

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 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 comprises 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 safing slot.

PROCESS FOR ASSEMBLING A UNITIZED PANEL FOR USE WITHIN AN EXTERIOR DYNAMIC CURTAIN WALL ASSEMBLY

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.

Process for assembling a unitized panel for use within an exterior dynamic curtain wall assembly

A box assembly includes a box, a door, an opener, and an insulation material. The box is configured to be installed on a curtain wall. The door encloses an interior space of the box. The opener is configured to open the door. The insulation material is in a compressed state in the interior space when the door is closed. The insulation material is configured to transition to an uncompressed state when the opener opens the door. When the door is opened, the insulation material at least partially extends from the interior space into a sating slot adjacent the curtain wall when the box is in an installed state and the door is opened.
