Structural silicone glazing is a smart way to attach glass to building facades, improving transparency and energy efficiency while maintaining durability. By analyzing the performance of this system over 50 years, engineers can optimize future designs for better thermal performance and resistance to condensation. Using advanced tools like finite element analysis, designers can ensure the structural integrity of the silicone while maximizing the benefits of the entire glazing system. This approach has proven to be highly effective in creating long-lasting, high-performing building envelopes.
