Aluminum Powder Coating is
a term used to describe a building which does not carry any dead load
from the building other than its own dead load, and one which transfers
the horizontal loads (wind loads) that are incident upon it. An aluminium
curtain wall is designed to resist air and water infiltration, wind forces
acting on the building, seismic forces (usually only those imposed by
the inertia of the Aluminum Powder Coating), and its own dead load forces.
Aluminum Powder Coating are
typically designed with extruded aluminium members, although the first
Powder Coating were made of steel. The aluminum frame is typically infilled
with glass, which provides an architecturally pleasing building, as well
as benefits such as daylighting. Powder Coating differ from storefront
systems in that they are designed to span multiple floors.
The loads imposed on the Aluminum Powder Coating are transferred
to the building structure through the anchors which attach the mullions
to the building. The building structure needs to be designed and account
for these loads. In the case of Powder Coating, this load is made up of
the weight of the mullions, anchors, and other structural components of
the Powder Coating, as well as the weight of the infill material. Additional
dead loads imposed on the Aluminum Powder Coating, such as sunshades,
must be accounted for in the design of the Powder Coatingl components
and anchors.
