Session 14: Solutions for Large Openings in Wind Borne & Coastal Areas

This seminar will define large opening glass wall systems and describe their functional and impact performance benefits. It will discuss how large operable glass wall systems can be used in high-velocity hurricane zones while achieving the maximized opening design; explain how certain components and materials contribute to the strength and durability of the frame and overall system; and will provide a summary of door selection and panel configurations and how this helps determine the most appropriate system and application for the project.
