The Composition of the Fa{cedil}cade Systems in Building Technology -- The Typology of the Mullions and Transoms Fa{cedil}cade System -- The Typology of the Structural Sealant Glazing Fa{cedil}cade System -- The Typology of the Unit Fa{cedil}cade System -- The Typology of the Suspended Fa{cedil}cade System -- The Typology of the Double Skin Fa{cedil}cade System.

The book examines the typological and technological constitution of the principal advanced fa{cedil}cade systems in the contemporary design and experimental scenario, proposing itself as a knowledge and operational tool currently lacking in the technical literature of the sector at an international level. It considers the field of advanced fa{cedil}cade systems in a scientific way, constituting a support for the study and the executive design. The book investigates in detail, in an analytical form, the constitution of the components on a typological and geometrical, functional and constructive level, on the basis of the documents and knowledges acquired from the essential contemporary production and construction references. At the same time, the book is configured in a handbook form as a reference for understanding and application with respect to traditional and complex fa{cedil}cade systems. For each main type of fa{cedil}cade, the book provides explanations and scientific information for investigating and designing the advanced fa{cedil}cades according to the characteristics of the mullions and transoms fa{cedil}cade system (stick system), of the structural sealant glazing fa{cedil}cade system, of the unit fa{cedil}cade system, of the suspended fa{cedil}cade system and of the double-skin fa{cedil}cade system.
