AWS 114 - Stick System
Stick curtain wall systems are the most common, using accessible materials and straightforward installation by assembling the aluminum frame first, followed by the glass. The term "stick" refers to vertical and horizontal aluminum bars cut at the factory and assembled on-site. Semi Unitized systems combine factory-produced panels with on-site assembled main frames. Unitized systems involve large factory-manufactured glass panels transported to the site and installed using cranes for quick assembly. These systems cater to different construction needs, offering flexibility and efficiency.
