Suspended Glass Walls :

This is a STRUCTURAL GLASS ASSEMBLY consisting of a series of specially processed and TOUGHENED GLASS panes, bolted together at their corners by means of small METAL PATCH FITTINGS with silicone sealant at the pane-to-pane joints, incorporating toughened glass FINS AT EACH VERTICAL JOINT to provide lateral stiffness against wind-loading.

The ideal solution for a large wall opening: the suspended glass assembly.  The glass wall, acting as one unit, hanging from the head of the structure, not only provides a transparent, weatherproof membrane, but also acts as a structural wall.  The wall may be interrupted by tempered glass doors or revolving doors to provide access where required.

Lateral support against wind loads is provided by glass stabilisers or "fins", which are attached to the façade by patch fittings.  The fins and glass lites are designed to be structurally self supporting.  In order to suit site conditions, the fins, located at each vertical joint, can be continuous or cantilevered and fixed at either ceiling or floor.

Provision is made for both horizontal and vertical structural deflection and thermal expansion.  Heavy wind loads can be accommodated by reducing vertical joints and/or increasing the size of the fins.  InKan's in-house engineering staff will adapt each design to fit the site conditions specified.

All horizontal and vertical joints, usually 3/16" (5mm), are sealed with structural silicone, adding rigidity to the structure.

  Canopies :

A canopy is an overhead roof or structure that provides shade or shelter. A canopy (building) is an architectural projection that provides weather protection, identity or decoration, and is supported by the building to which it is attached and a ground mounting, by not less than two stanchions (upright support posts). A canopy is comprised of a structure over which a fabric or metal covering is attached. Canopies are beautiful ways to provide shade in a sunny area, or provide protection from the elements. Optional Metals Also available in aluminum and stainless steel and protected with a durable powder-coated finish. All fasteners are stainless steel or aluminum.
