Why Façade Second Layer

The concept of double-skin façades is not new. The airflow through the intermediate cavity can occur naturally or be mechanically driven, and the two glass layers may include sun protection devices.

There is a growing tendency for architects and engineers to use them.  They are favored for their transparent façade, thermal and auditory comfort, reduced air conditioning costs, and elimination of the need for window-specific technologies. 

We have successfully designed the structure that supports the façade’s second layer glazing. The cavity created by the layers is 800mm giving access for maintenance and cleaning services
