Curtain wall fixation with anchors

Complex curtain wall designs often present planners with a major challenge - especially when time is at a premium. Planning and execution of the work thus sometimes run almost parallel. Changes to plans at short notice can make it impossible to use anchor channels on all areas of the structure. For these situations, Hilti offers a range of stud anchors that provides versatile, well-proven solutions for fastening facades which also includes revolutionary new Hilti HUS3 undercut anchor.

Firestop for curtain wall

Perimeter wall fire barriers pose unique design challenges to architects and engineers.

Like all construction joints, the curtain wall joint is a dynamic system that is constantly moving with minute shifts against the building structure. Specifying a curtain wall system that does not properly address movement, leakage and water ratings could lead to costly retrofitting down the road

Hilti has developed a line of products to meet these requirements along with tested and approved systems to address a wide range of exterior configurations.

Full Vision Glass

Hilti is the first and only manufacturer to have a tested perimeter fire barrier system for 100% vision glass. The system (HI/BPF 120-11) provides an aesthetically pleasing fire-rated assembly for floor-to-ceiling glass design with Class IV movement capabilities in a fully unitized assembly.
