UNITISED CURTAIN WALL 7 of 117 4 DESIGN NARRATIVE 4.1 Load Path 4.1.1 Vertical Loads Vertical loads, due to the weight of the curtain wall unit including all attachments, are transferred equally by the vertical mullions on both sides of the CW unit. Each mullion has a bracket that is mated to another brackets that are mounted on the floor slab of the base building. 4.1.2 Lateral Loads Fig. 4.1-1 Dead Load Supports Lateral load, due to wind load applied perpendicular to the face of the unit, is (1) transferred through the mullions and to the brackets that are mounted on the floor slab of the base building (see Fig. 3). Part of the loads (2) are transferred directly to the bracket and the other part goes through the sword and finally to the bracket on CW unit below. WIND LOAD WIND LOAD Fig. 4.1-2 Wind Load Supports

UNITISED CURTAIN WALL 8 of 117 4.2 Coupled Mullion The Mullions consist of a coupled pair of two distinct aluminum profiles which are so called male and female parts (see Figure below). A continuous part of the male profile penetrates a continuous groove part of the female to serve as shear connector in coupling them together in resisting bending due to lateral loads. Fig. 4.2-1 Couple Mullion Profiles (a) Deflection. Given the fact that with the shear connector the pair of mullion work together in bending about the minor-axis, both parts will deflect along the major-axis, at the same rate δ MALE = δ FEMALE (b) Bending Stiffness. Since both parts have equal deflection, the stiffness of both parts are responsible for the load carrying capacity. Assuming that the longitudinal shear, due to friction of the shear connector contact with the female groove, is negligible, the total stiffness, EI of the coupled mullion setup is given as: EITOTAL = EIMALE + EI FEMALE (c) Load Sharing. Each part of the mullion setup share a certain amount of the internal moment in proportion to their stiffness: M MALE EI MALE = MTOTAL EITOTAL M FEMALE EI FEMALE = M TOTAL EITOTAL (d) Effective Section Modulus. The effective section properties of the mullion profile is predicted by adopting the procedure outlined in AAMA TIR-A8-04: Structural Performance of Composite Thermal Barrier Framing Systems.

UNITISED CURTAIN WALL 9 of 117 (e) Determining the Design Value of Gc. The procedure below outlines the determination of the design shear modulus (Gc) of the thermal barrier being utilized as a medium for composite action between connected extrusion parts. 1. A test beam is performed to determine the elasticity constant (c) of the combined profile assembly. The elasticity constant is determined as the unit deformation of the assembly under an applied longitudinal shear force. This deformation is the combined effect of slippage and shear deformation of the thermal break material. The test is performed under different temperature conditions of -20 C, +20 C and +80 C. c = F l l where: c = elasticity constant in N/mm 2 = applied force in N l = deformation in mm l = length of the specimen in mm Fig. 4.2-2 Shear Test Specimen 2. Test Results. Please refer to Appendix A for the complete test report. Test Results Temperature Shear strength Tensile strength Elasticity constant, c Factor of safety for design strength 1-20 C 55.1 N/mm 28.9 N/mm 89 N/mm 2 3.0 +20 C 50.4 N/mm - 69 N/mm 2 3.0 +80 C 50.8 N/mm 61.3 N/mm 57 N/mm 2 3.0 Note: 1 In checking the longitudinal shear (shear flow) in the thermal barrier, a factor of safety of 3.0 is considered when calculated using a more precise FEM analysis. In cases where equation (28) of AAMA-TIR-A8-04 is used to approximate the shear flow, a lower factor of safety is considered since the accuracy of this equation depends on the degree of symmetry of the two faces being combined. In the case of the profiles used in the system, the two faces are always very far from being symmetrical. 3. Design value Gc is calculated considering the relationship: h ( ) Gc = c where: Gc = shear modulus of the core in N/mm2 b h = height of the thermal break in mm. b = total thickness of the thermal break in mm. Design Value of Gc. For h = 27mm and b = 4mm Temperature Elasticity constant, c Shear Modulus, Gc -20 C 89 N/mm 2 600.8 N/mm 2 +20 C 69 N/mm 2 465.8 N/mm 2 +80 C 57 N/mm 2 384.8 N/mm 2 4. Predictions of effective moment of Inertia (I e) are calculated for a range of Gc based on the shear test results. The results are plotted on predicted effective I versus span L graph. Upper bound @ -20 C Gc = 600.8 N/mm 2 Lower bound @ +80 C Gc = 384.8 N/mm 2 Using the conservative value from the test, the design value of Gc used in the analysis is when the thermal break is softest @ elevated temperature of +80 C: Gc = 384.8 N / mm 2

UNITISED CURTAIN WALL 10 of 117 4.3 Mullion Structural Systems The sword inside the mullion has to transfer the shear reaction force of the CW unit above to the unit below. But sometimes an amount of bending moment is transferred between mullions after a certain amount of rotation at the ends of the mullion during service condition. Effectively at that stage, the mullion is acting as a continuous beam system. Due to the gap between the extrusion dimensions and the sword dimensions a certain slip (free slip angle ) occurs and therefore the continuous system may only occur after a certain rotation at the beam ends. q q (a) Section (b) Structural System - 1 (c) Structural System - 2 Fig. 4.3-1 Mullion Structural Systems Applying the above theory to optimize the use of the mullion profiles two systems of structural behavior are resolved with the following objective: The same male and female profile will be used throughout the entire job, and Only the swords will vary, in length and the grade of material. 4.3.1 Structural System 1 ( ): Sword is shorter and used as a shear connector only. That is, no contact between the sword and the aluminum extrusion during service conditions, making it incapable of transferring moment between mullions above or below. Therefore, the mullions act as simple beams. This is applied where there is little load on the mullions. ρ, end rotation h SW Sword (short) gap/2 gap/2 q L SW EI' L M MAX δ MAX Deflected Mullion Mullion α, free slip angle Load Moment Deflection Fig. 4.3-2 Structural System - 1

UNITISED CURTAIN WALL 11 of 117 4.3.2 Structural System 2 ( ): Sword is longer and is utilized to transfer moment. That is, there is contact between the sword and the aluminum extrusion during service condition, allowing transfer of bending moment between the mullion profiles. Therefore, the system acts as a continuous beam. This system is used for cases where system 1 is not sufficient to cater the loads. (a) Stage 1 ( ): The system is initially behaving as a simple beam. That is, no contact between the sword and the aluminum extrusion, making it incapable of transferring moment between mullion profiles. (b) Stage 2 ( ): The system finally behaves as a continuous beam. That is, there is contact between the sword and the aluminum extrusion, allowing transfer of bending moment between the mullion profiles.

The indices of each panel type are determined from the variable parameters in calculating the bending moment and deflections. The criteria for this evaluation are summarized in the tables below.

UNITISED CURTAIN WALL 14 of 117 4.5 CW In-plane Performance The in-plane behavior of the CW structural members is dealt due to the following situations: (a) In-plane Wind load. Wind load applied to the protruding surface of the vertical fins produces torsion as well as bending on the weak axis of the mullion profiles. This wind load is calculated as per the 1997 UBC code as a parapet wall with pressure coefficient of 1.3 inward and outward. See 5.2 on Wind loads. Wind force normal Wind force on protrusions (fins) Fig. 4.4-1 Wind Load on Fins (b) Slab deflection. Due to slab deflection two loading scenarios occur on the system which are addressed in this set of calculation: Where the slab has uneven deflection at the bracket locations of a given CW unit, the bracket that is located on the lower point of the deflected slab will become a dead bracket which means it is carrying no weight because the slab is hanging below. This results to a one-side supported unit wherein the other bracket carries the whole weight and causes the CW unit to rotate due to the eccentric application of its weight (dead load). Couple force is then produced to counteract the rotation. The couple is a set of horizontal forces acting on the live bracket and on the sword. At the apex of the deflected slab, live brackets occur at the same point for two adjacent CW units. Thus, the bracket mounted on the slab shall be designed to cater for this double loading. Error! Objects cannot be created from editing field codes. Fig. 4.4-2 Racking of CW Units

UNITISED CURTAIN WALL 63 of 117 8.1.6 Check Thermal Break Shear (a) Check Longitudinal Shear in Male Mullion The FEM Model Equation (28.a) of AAMA-TIR-A8-04 is an approximation for shear flow in a thermal barrier. The accuracy of this equation depends on the degree of symmetry of the two faces being combined. In the case of the male mullion profile, the two faces are very far from being symmetrical. Therefore a more precise FEM analysis is performed to calculate the actual shear flow in the thermal barrier. The assembly is modeled to include both faces of the male mullion profile as custom beam sections and the pair of thermal break strips as shell elements. Stiff link elements at 100mm spacing along the entire span join both faces with the edges of the thermal strips. Boundary conditions are defined at end spans and at intermediate points at the location of the transoms. The amount of uniform wind load shared by the male mullion (with its female partner) is applied as a point load on every node that are spaced 100mm along the whole span.

In checking the minor axis bending of the mullion, it is assumed that the upper spandrel panel is a rigid diaphragm in the axis on mullion bending, this by virtue of the double skin 1.5mm infill metal sheets. With this assumption, the mode of mullion bending is similar to a propped cantilever beam with the spandrel panel as its rigid support. Error! Objects cannot be created from editing field codes.

UNITISED CURTAIN WALL 83 of 117 9.1.6 Check Thermal Break Shear (a) Check Thermal Break Longitudinal Shear in Male Mullion The FEM Model Equation (28.a) of AAMA-TIR-A8-04 is an approximation for shear flow in a thermal barrier. The accuracy of this equation depends on the degree of symmetry of the two faces being combined. In the case of the male mullion profile, the two faces are very far from being symmetrical. Therefore a more precise FEM analysis is performed to calculate the actual shear flow in the thermal barrier. The assembly is modeled to include both faces of the male mullion profile as custom beam sections and the pair of thermal break strips as shell elements. Stiff link elements at 100mm spacing along the entire span join both faces with the edges of the thermal strips. Boundary conditions are defined at end spans and at intermediate points at the location of the transoms. The amount of uniform wind load shared by the male mullion (with its female partner) is applied as a point load on every node that are spaced 100mm along the whole span.
