Flush curtain walling for University of Glasgow
When Reiach and Hall Architect looked for flush curtain walling for an iconic extension to the University of Glasgow's Department of Computing Science, they turned to Kawneer's well-known picture-frame system. Kawneer's structurally glazed PF system has been used with the company's AA605 series of swing doors and AA603 tilturn windows on the £43m Sir Alwyn Williams building, situated on the university's historic city-centre campus. Built of a steel frame with composite concrete floor slabs and blockwork infill, the Kawneer PF system forms the main curtain wall to the teaching spaces and was installed in a pale umber finish by Kawneer approved installer Charles Henshaw & Sons. The result, according to Reiach and Hall, is "Now an iconic design which expresses both its architectural place in the city and a state-of-the-art education research environment".
