Curtainwall

The enhanced design of Tubelite's ForceFront Storm (FFS) 400T Curtainwall system combines verified hurricane impact-resistance with updated thermally broken design, helping code-compliant, energy-efficient buildings support occupant safety, comfort and wellbeing. Tubelite FFS 400T Curtainwall’s aluminum framing features a 2.5-inch, captured or structural silicone glazed (SSG), pressure bar system for use on single- and twin-span applications. A wider choice of frame depths also are available with this improved design.

Part of a full line of ForceFront Storm hurricane impact-resistant products, Tubelite FFS 400T Curtainwall is engineered and tested to meet the Florida Building Code’s impact and cycling requirements, in accordance with relevant Testing Application Standards (TAS) and ASTM standards.

Flood barrier glazing system

Crawford-Tracey Corporation's Pro-Tech Flood Barrier system includes the Pro-Tech 7SG FB and Pro-Tech 9SG FB, which meets the increasing demand for property protection and evolving building code requirements. It is a unitized structurally glazed curtain wall and storefront system that has a water-resistant rating of 100 PSF and has now been tested and approved by FM Approvals per the ANSI/FM 2510 testing standard as a flood rated passive glazing system for opening barrier applications. The Pro-Tech 7SG FB is a structurally glazed 7-inch profile curtain wall and storefront system, and the Pro-Tech 9SG FB is a similar glazing system with a 9-inch profile to meet taller spans and withstand higher wind and flood loads.

Key features:

  • FM Approved and certified per ANSI/FM 2510, Flood Abatement Standard
  • Hurricane impact-rated system with a static wind pressure water-resistance rating of 100 PSF, the industry's highest rating, and is now currently approved to resist 4 feet and 7 feet of flood water with floating debris impact. 
  • Maintains a clear view and aesthetic, without a bulky surrounding framework, while effectively safeguarding against flood events 24/7.
  • Capable of withstanding winds exceeding 195 mph with approval by Miami-Dade County and the State of Florida for hurricane-impact resistance.
  • Meets the requirements for both large missile impact and small missile impact applications.
  • Competitive price when compared to other flood barrier curtain wall systems.

Panelized curtain wall system

Safti First introduces the patent-pending, panelized SAFTI-EZ-ARC, designed for use in non-rated or fire-rated applications. SAFTI-EZ-ARC is the first U.S.-made, truly panelized, versatile structurally glazed curtain wall system. Two versions were developed to satisfy non-rated and fire-rated applications: SAFTI-EZ-ARC is a unique panelized system that will provide ease of installation in a curtain wall, while the SAFTI-EZ-ARC-FR is an ASTM E-119/UL 263 fire-resistive rated version recently successfully tested and listed by UL up to 2 hours. Additional testing is scheduled to meet hurricane, blast and tornado requirements.
