T-Connectors
The connectors between mullion and transoms on a timber curtain wall must fulfill additional specific requirements. The dead load of the infill units is positioned in front of the timber structure, and the connectors must compensate for this torsional effect in addition to wind pressure and suction forces.
- Two patented RAICO timber connector options: SOLO and KOMBI for glass weights up to 481 kg
- For THERM+ H-I / H-V
- For transom depth from 60 up to 300 mm
- Minimum preparation: rebated grooves at each end of the transom and drilled holes to both the mullion and transom
- Simplified assembly: fix mullions – insert transom – secure transom with nail screws – finished
- Automatic flush position of the transom due to the integrated stop device
- Option to pre-fabricate into transportable units
- Aesthetically correct joints due to T-connector pressure across the profiles
