Using curtain wall units in a curtain wall can Help you limit the complexity
in the curtain wall design.
Elements of Grids
Grids are the foundation of curtain walls and curtain wall units. 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 unit.
Each element type is assigned a default definition that describes what elements
of that type look like.
