dc.description.abstractBuilding facades are the first aesthetic characteristic that distinguishes one structure from another. Its unique appearance is frequently the subject of trouble attracting. Façade systems are now widely used for new high-rise buildings, and they represent a significant investment in both the building's construction and long-term success. Even the simplest types of façade systems are far more sophisticated than their earlier equivalents, though many of the earliest walls are still performing admirably. More than fifty years of research and development have eliminated the major drawbacks of the original designs, resulting in improved products. Some people think that a façade system is just an assemblage of glass, aluminum, steel, screws, and sealant. Its construction is not just a combination of various components, but also a sophisticated technology involving complex calculations. Some architects are confused by the relationship between sealant and glass size and wind load, as well as the strength of the glass to withstand the loads. Beginning in the early 1950s, a series of window units and panels joined and supported by simple framing components was a relatively simple but creative concept. Façade system technology has progressed over time to include a wide range of highly engineered designs. This dissertation will focus on the façade details for wind load using sealant bite for glass, limit state design for glass pane, and finite element analysis methods. Finally, the results were discussed and a conclusion and recommendation on façade details were provided.en_US
