Abstract (en)

A structural element 20 for a curtain wall system, in particular a unitized curtain wall system, comprises two half-elements 30,31 (for example of extruded aluminium) that are interconnected by a plurality of seals to prevent water ingress. The half-elements 30,31 are joined together along an axis normal to the plane of the glass panels 21 forming the wall in such a way that the seals interconnecting the half-elements 30,31 are disposed on opposing sides of the axis. A plurality of transverse wall members 30d,31d are also provided to divide the structural element 20 into at least three chambers in a direction along the axis.
