Wall Systems – Kalwall

Wall systems are perfect for facade applications that do not need to unitize fixed or operable glazing or louvers with translucent panels. Kalwall structural sandwich panels, up to 5′ x 20′, may be either flat or curved. Panels are available in 2-3/4″ and 4″ thicknesses, and may be customized to accommodate a variety of head and sill conditions. Typical design configurations include punched openings, single story and multi-story applications.

Technical Information

Translucent Wall Systems offer many budget-friendly, elegant side lighting solutions. From single story applications to mid-rise construction, Kalwall Wall Systems transform sunlight into glare-free daylight to enhance any space.

Daylight Modeling Studies:

a complimentary service to optimize your daylighting design

Radiance Illumination
Provides a "snapshot" of daylight levels at a given point in time. Typically, simulations are made to study light levels at the Fall and Spring Equinoxes during the early morning, at solar noon, and late in the afternoon on both sunny and overcast skies anywhere in the world.
Glare Pattern Analysis
Helps to idenify potential problem areas where glare is a concern such as offices, classrooms, athetlic facilities and other spaces where visual acuity is critical. These sutdies are especially useful when designers are specifiers call for a mix of translucent and vision glazing (glass).
Daylight Autonomy
Gives averable daylight values and shows what percentage of the time the space can operate at the target light level with daylight alone. sDA (Spatial daylight autonomy) and ASE (annual sunlight exposure) are all available for LEED® documentation for daylighting credits.
