Principal Engineer

Janus Façades

Topic

Seismic capability of curtain walls

Talk points

Testing of curtain walls for seismic capability, mainly inter-storey drift, has been carried out for many curtain walls over the last 20 years
Curtain wall engineers generally do not have the information to analyse a building structure to determine realistic seismic movement dimensions. They have to rely on the structural engineer who usually only quotes code values
EQ-Assess which is the defacto standard in New Zealand for building's seismic assessment does not adequately address seismic capability of façades in general and curtainwalls in particular

Topic

More than skin-deep

Talk points

Façades have a long life yet their design is still driven largely by appearance which is determined at an early stage of design with undesirable life-cycle costs and environmental impacts may therefore be locked-in if the environmental performance is not optimised
How do we move from this ‘skin-deep’ approach to a deeper level of façade design and how can we use technology in the development of higher façade environmental performance?
What passive and active strategies can we explore for improving façade environmental performance and what could the future look like?
