Curtain Wall Testing
Service Overview
Curtain wall testing is done either using mockups or onsite at the construction location in order to assess how your products (glass, metal panels or thin stone) will perform during heavy rain or wind, seismic activity, natural disasters, or other extreme conditions. Curtain wall mockup testing generally consists of an aluminum-framed wall containing infills of glass, metal panels or thin stone for testing.
