<p>A plurality of multiplicity of standardized curtain wall units are arranged in rows and columns to provide a unit type curtain wall assembly. For interconnecting each column of curtain wall units so as to allow relative displacement thereof in their own vertical plane while holding them against relative displacement out of the vertical plane, a pair of horizontally spaced couplings are provided between any two vertically adjoining curtain wall units. Each coupling comprises a male member attached to either of the upper and lower curtain wall units and having a tongue projecting vertically therefrom, and a female member mounted to the other curtain wall unit and defining a groove for slidably receiving the tongue of the male member. Also included is a stringcourse extending along the seam between every two vertically adjoining curtain wall units and disposed exteriorly of the couplings for rainproofing the seam. The unit type curtain wall assembly may be equipped with a room temperature control system.</p> |
