Integral Facade Construction focuses on the future development of the curtain
wall. While the requirements on facades have slowly increased over the last
decades, the curtain wall has evolved from craftsmanship oriented
constructions to highly developed facade systems. But its constructional
principle is still the same. Simplified, it can be described as a two-
dimensional stick system with infill. With the latest requirements of almost
energy neutral buildings, faster building processes and increasing
technicalisation of the building envelope this constructional principle is
reaching its limits. The curtain wall system has reached a state of maturity;
and it needs a new approach to guaranty that this successful product will meet
the challenges of the future.
