The spider facade is referred to a kind of modern self-standing glass facade (curtain wall) in which the glass is connected to the structure with point-to-point connections. The main application of the spider facade is in the commercial and office buildings, and there is no vertical and horizontal structure on the glass plate, the case that is considered as a weakness in the curtain wall facades. In general, the spider facade has a diverse structural system including the metal, cable, and glass structures which are used according to the building usage, loading, and cost. The use of any glass structure is allowed in this façade and this is determined according to the environmental and user-defined conditions.
The organizational culture is moving towards the expansion of office spaces and open spaces in leading organizations, and in this regard, glass partition walls play an important role. Elegant aluminum profiles for keeping single-walled glass and, if necessary, double-glazed windows with a variety of apparent combinations, such as the stylized and printed glass, create an unmatched set of office spaces which positively affects the performance of personnel working in such environments. In this regard, Venus Glass uses the engineering and support services provided by its international partners including the Minusco, G-Fittings, and Vetroin.
One of the manifestations of the expansion of glass application in the modern architecture is the all-glass railings and shelters which have been increasingly considered by the interior and exterior designers in today’s architecture. Relying on the strength and durability of glass for such applications depends on the parallel development in the laminated and securit (toughened or tempered) glass. The glass retaining metal and non-metallic parts and other adjoining parts of these assemblies is as important as the quality of technical properties of the glass in achieving the overall goals in terms of the beauty and performance. In this regard, Venus Glass operates as the exclusive partner of the Q-railing (Germany) and Sadev (France) companies in Iran.
The engineering services provided by this unit include calculations and design, presentation of the details of the project, supplying the parts and, if desired, the installation of these systems. In addition to the conventional load-bearing systems such as the columnar structures or glass panes, Venus Glass also provides very beautiful and modern structural systems with the collaboration of Sadev Company.
Today, the use of glass as a modern, transparent, beautiful, and safe element is no longer limited to the facades of buildings and windows, and architects tend to use it in interior architecture and interior spaces of buildings. Glass and metal structures are formed by the vicinity of various glass with the metal elements and fittings, and they are implemented in various forms such as the glass railings and shelters, glass showcases, glass walls, glass wall frames, spider facades and glass panes, glass floors and ceilings, and glass stairs.
