Ajay Glass was contracted by the Sports & Exhibition Authority to Design-Build the curtainwall systems for the largest LEED certified building in the U.S.

Ajay Glass provided engineering, fabrication and erection of over 80,000 sf of custom unitized and stick built curtainwalls.

The highlight of this project are the cable supported curtainwalls which are unitized and designed to accommodate deflections of up to 40” laterally, 6” vertically and 1.5” in plane, under full design load.

All this while maintaining air & water integrity at design pressure of 12 psf. The result is a unique one of a kind curtainwall never attempted before in the world and successfully designed and implemented by Ajay Glass.
