Curtain wall façade system under lateral actions with regard to limit states

During high wind or earthquake action, high‐rise multi‐storey buildings respond with relatively large storey drifts. The building envelope, in this case a curtain wall, exposed to this in‐plane shear resists the action with its drift capacity. This paper describes tests on two different configuratio...
