The SteelBuilt Curtainwall Infinity™ series opens up a whole new realm of design possibilities by offering back mullions of virtually any profile, including I-, T-, U- and L-shapes. Like SteelBuilt Curtainwall™ Systems, the SteelBuilt Curtainwall Infinity series utilizes the superior strength of steel, allowing architects and designers to use larger areas of glass, smaller frame profiles and wider free-spans than is possible with traditional aluminum curtainwall assemblies. The system can use as a back mullion almost any type of framing member that can bear the load of the curtainwall, including stainless steel and glulam beams. The back mullion can be adapted to meet nearly any required engineering loads, including high wind loads and large glass panes. Materials and profile shapes integral to a building's overall design may now be incorporated, allowing the curtainwall to better complement a building's surrounding design and materials.The SteelBuilt Curtainwall Infinity series is a dramatic improvement over traditional aluminum curtainwall assemblies, which are typically limited to square-tube back mullions, creating performance limitations, as well as a visual break between the main structure and the curtainwall. The exterior cover caps and interior back mullions of SteelBuilt Curtainwall Infinity series frames can also be made from stainless steel, an increasingly popular material incorporated throughout building designs.
