Façade Attachment

Cast-in anchor channels for façade attachment

Attaching facade elements, such as glass window walls, curtain walls, and sun shades to the base structure of a building may be accomplished in a variety of different ways depending on your existing condition. On projects where you are in the phase of pre-planning and design, Hilti anchor channels systems offer a cost-effective cast-in anchoring technology for connecting your facade to your structure. Cast-in anchor channel technology provides a solution for jobsites requiring tight tolerances and on-site adjustability when connecting structural and non-structural elements.

For projects requiring connecting to existing concrete, such as renovations, Hilti brings an innovative post-installed anchoring portfolio consisting of mechanical and adhesive anchoring options to fit the needs of your jobsite.

Curtain Wall and Edge of Slab Firestopping

That narrow gap between your floor slab and façade is bigger than it looks and adds up to create open space for gas, smoke and flames to rise from floor to floor. Almost all international building codes now recognize how critical perimeter fire barriers are to the overall building safety plan. Ambitious designs and strict schedules mean that perimeter fire containment must be quick and easy to install correctly. Acoustic, thermal and movement requirements cannot be ignored either.  With these industry trends in mind, we have developed inventive fire compartmentation solutions that not only help protect lives, but can also help solve other engineering, specification and installation challenges as well. Pre-formed firestop barriers and versatile spray sealants are at the forefront of this new generation.

  • FIRESTOP PREFORMED SOLUTIONS FOR SEALING EDGE ON SLAB JOINTS

    A building’s façade can be one of its most striking features. Yet, behind the scenes multiple components are necessary to ensure the façade is safe and enduring. Hilti's CFS-EOS QuickSeal is a preformed solution for edge of slab applications that is easy to install, without the need for mineral wool and spray sealants.

  • TRADITIONAL SPRAY SEALANT

    Intricate fire containment applications can pose a variety of added complexities during the design and installation phases of the application. If our current portfolio offerings don’t match your site conditions or there are questions regarding what solution best matches a project, a customized engineering judgment can be provided to support.
