Assigned door/window assembly infill
Both curtain wall units and door/window assemblies can reduce the need for
nested grids, making edits to the curtain wall easier.
Elements of Grids
Grids are the foundation of curtain walls, curtain wall units, and door/window
assemblies. Every grid has four element types:
â– Divisions: Define the direction of the grid (horizontal or vertical) and the
number of cells
â– Cell Infills: Contain another grid, a panel infill, or an object such as a
window or a door
â– Frames: Define the edge around the outside of the primary grid and nested
grids
â– Mullions: Define the edges between the cells
NOTE Division is an abstract element, in contrast to the other three element types
that represent physical elements of the curtain wall.
Each element type is assigned a default definition that describes what elements
of that type look like.
