China
Glass News reported that the global v glasses architectural glass market is
experiencing a significant growth trend. Most companies focus on new product
strategies, followed by product development and the energy efficiency of v
glasses architectural glass technology. Due to the rising demand for v glasses
architectural glass in commercial buildings, industrial sectors, and
residential buildings, overall market competition may intensify.

In
the past few years, the global v glasses architectural glass market has been a
collaboration between glass manufacturers and construction companies. It is
expected that the v glasses architectural glass market will continue to
establish alliances with a number of construction companies to expand their
revenue.

It
is expected that from 2017 to 2022, the global v glasses architectural glass
market will boost demand as its investment in product R&D activities increases
and the demand for new technologies introduction increases.

The
global v glasses architectural glass market is estimated to thrive at a strong
compound annual growth rate of 13.1% during the forecast period. The global v
glasses architectural glass market was valued at US$1.78 billion in 2017 and is
expected to surge to US$3.3 billion by 2022.

By
region, the global v glasses architectural glass market is divided into North
America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East, and Africa. Among them, Europe is
expected to drive the demand for the v glasses architectural glass market from
2017 to 2022. It is expected that during the forecast period, its compound
annual growth rate will reach 14.8%. This increase is the result of supporting
the adoption of environmentally friendly building solutions and sustainable
energy production guidelines.

During
this period, North America and the Asia-Pacific region (excluding Japan) are
also expected to provide fruitful growth opportunities for existing major
companies. This increase is mainly due to the increasing awareness of renewable
energy and its advantages, as well as the strong momentum of industrialization.
These factors may have a positive impact on the global v glasses architectural
glass market.

The
global v glasses architectural glass market demand is mainly due to the
increasing awareness of carbon emissions reduction. The population in all
regions is turning to renewable and traditional energy sources for low-cost
power generation. This in turn has a positive impact on the v glasses
architectural glass market.

The
rapid adoption of v glasses technology is expected to drive a surge in demand
for v glasses architectural glass in various regions (especially North
America). As far as the field is concerned, the market growth potential of the
construction field is huge, and it occupies most of the global photovoltaic
architectural glass market.

The
v glasses architectural glass is used in construction, such as education,
residential, hospital, retail, and enterprises, which will drive the demand for
the v glasses architectural glass market. Due to the increase in R&D
investment, the construction sector is also expected to grow.

We
know the types of glass. What are the main applications of glass in
architecture?

Application
of v glasses in construction

To
fully understand the use of glass in architecture, we must first understand
several common architectural glasses. For different occasions, designers are
pursuing different things, and they need a glass with different functions.

The v glasses vs Tempered glass

Tempered
glass is made by pouring float glass (glass made by the float method) in a
tempering furnace, and pour the molten glass on a liquid with a specific
gravity greater than that of the molten glass-usually on the surface of liquid
tin, so that the glass can be shaped, which can reduce mechanical glass making
Uneven or containing bubbles, etc.) heat it to near the softening point, and
then quickly and uniformly cool it to form uniform compressive stress on its
surface, improve its mechanical strength, and effectively improve the wind
pressure and impact resistance of the glass.

Performance
characteristics: high strength, good safety, stable heat resistance, large
deflection (when under load, the maximum tensile stress is not on the surface
of the glass, but in the center of the board)

Self-explosion
phenomenon: It is mainly caused by the volume expansion caused by the phase
change of nickel sulfide (NIS) in the glass, which is difficult to completely
eliminate.

Hot-bent
tempered glass: The original float glass is heated to the softening
temperature, then it is bent into shape by its own weight or external force and
cooled naturally to make the required curved glass. It is mostly used in curved
glass curtain walls, sightseeing elevators, indoor curved glass partitions,
glass guardrails, indoor furniture, etc.

The v glasses vs Glass curtain wall

The
birth of the glass curtain wall originated from Kandinsky’s "Glass
Boundary" concept in 1909. The Harid Building in the United States in 1917
was regarded as the first building to put it into practice, and the true glass
curtain wall was made in 1952. Hua Building, after decades of development,
modern glass curtain wall technology has been very mature, mainly including
frame-supported glass curtain wall, point-supported glass curtain wall, and
all-glass curtain wall.

The v glasses vs Frame-supported glass
curtain wall

Frame-supported
glass curtain wall: The periphery of the glass panel is supported by a metal
frame, which can be divided into the component type and unit type according to
different installation forms; and according to the different effects produced,
it can be divided into the exposed frame, semi-hidden frame and hidden frame.

The v glasses vs Component type

Component
type: The curtain wall keel is connected to the building structure through
embedded parts, and then glass panels are installed. The exposed frame curtain
wall will be covered on the outside of the keel, and the hidden frame will use
weather-resistant sealant to seal the gap. Component-type curtain walls require
on-site construction of supporting keels and then installation of glass.
Compared with unit-type curtain walls, the unit square cost is lower,
subsequent maintenance is more convenient, and it is suitable for curved glass
curtain walls or complex building shapes.

The v glasses vs Unitary

Unit
type: Unit type curtain wall is made up of aluminum alloy frame, glass,
cushions, insulation materials, shock absorption, and waterproof materials, and
decorative fabrics. The curtain wall unit is assembled in the factory in
advance, and then transported to the site for hoisting and assembly, and
directly connected to the building structure. Connected, it is installed
quickly and has high flatness, which is especially suitable for super high-rise
buildings.

The v glasses vs Point-supported glass
curtain wall

Point-supported
glass curtain wall: It is composed of decorative surface glass and connecting
component supporting structure. The completed curtain wall is more transparent.
According to different structural forms, it can be divided into cable-net-type
point-supported curtain walls, tie-rod-type point-supported curtain walls, and
glass ribs. Point support curtain wall, etc.

The v glasses vs Full glass curtain wall

Full
glass curtain wall: It is divided into rear support type, seat-mounted type,
and hoisting type. The rear support type is composed of glass ribs and glass
panels. The former supports and the rear of the panel. The structure is
essentially a point-supported glass curtain wall, but the effect is purer and
transparent; the seat-mounted type is that the glass sits directly on the
structural beams and slabs of the building; the hoisting type is that the glass
panel is suspended by the upper suspension device.
