SlenderWall Curtain Wall Value for Architects, Contractors & Owners/Developers

Architects look for:

• Appearance & Quality - architectural precast concrete exterior finish
• Proven Systems - over 2,000,000 square feet installed
• Cost-Effective - net cost to project is substantially below panel direct costs
• Flexibility - large panels, cantilever applications, multiple finishes

General Contractors need:

• Reduced Construction Schedules - large panels shorten the installation schedule
• Speed of Erection - proprietary system increases installation rates by up to 50%
• Smaller Construction Cranes - light weight panels - 30 lbs/sf
• Reduced Trades at the Site - panelization, exterior wall studding integral to panel and architectural precast concrete brick (APCB) (also eliminates lay-down area)

Owners / Developers demand:

• Appearance - high quality architectural precast concrete with integral architectural details and multiple finishes
• Reduced Construction Costs - reduced foundation and superstructure requirements, outboard mounting produces “bonus” square footage on every floor, exterior wall framing integral to panel, shorter construction schedules, lighter cranes
• Cooling and Heating Costs - panels have an integral thermal break / air barriers
• Permanence - precast concrete finish, seismic isolation, new caulking technology
