Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a systematic approach for the evaluation and selection of curtain wall systems for medium-high rise building construction. Design/methodology/approach – The authors have identified the different types of curtain wall systems that are commonly used in the building construction industry in Saudi Arabia; examined the various performance as well as financial and non-financial criteria affecting the evaluation and selection of these systems; and subjected the identified different types of curtain wall systems to several filtering processes, namely feasibility ranking, evaluation by comparison and weighted evaluation to facilitate making a decision on the most suitable system to select. Findings – The analysis of the collected data indicated that the precast concrete curtain wall system is considered to be the first choice. The second choice is the prefabricated brick panel curtain wall system. Originality/value – Curtain walls are the most recognized elements of contemporary structures today. There exists ample variety of materials and designs that could be utilized for the development of these building elements. This paper is of practical value to project owners, architects and design professionals endeavoring on the process of selecting and specifying curtain wall systems in their projects.

Pollution Area

The developing economy and convenience of traffic makes the building more and more large, and the traffic is also increasing quickly. The light pollution caused by glass curtain walls in high-rise building makes the traffic safety problems more and more serious. Enough attention should be paid towards it. A simulation software was written in order to make a graphic simulation of the sun's running status, analysis of various types of architectural glass curtain wall and building orientation on light pollution regional distribution effect. It's summed up that the use of decumbent form glass curtain wall can be effective in controlling light pollution area size and can reduce the glare range by properly reversing buildings, in order to avoid light pollution’s influence on traffic safety.

Preliminary Study

High-rise building construction demands precise planning prior to actual operation. High-rise building construction has widely been planned in urban area. Curtain wall operation is one of important and fundamental operations in high-rise building construction. Curtain wall operation is composed of various activities. Precise planning is required for the effective management of such operation. Construction simulation technique has been considered an appropriate methodology for estimating construction performance which is required for the effective management of the project. However, simulation technique revealed serious limitations. Simulation technique has difficulty in preliminary modeling and application of changed conditions. This paper suggests a preliminary study for the research that overcomes traditional simulation technique limitations focusing on curtain wall operations.

Wind Induced Vibration Response

The point-supported cable truss curtain wall is widely applied in today's high-rise construction structural design. The wind load is the main loads which are bore by Point supported glass curtain wall structure. When the curtain wall glass panels are subject to wind load, the panel will transform form surface loads to point load by spider claws passed to the supporting structure. This paper adopts the method of time domain and ANSYS software to analyse point-supported glass curtain wall cable truss structure of wind-induced vibration response.
