C.R. Laurence releases new U.S. Aluminum Design Manual

A new U.S. Aluminum Curtain Wall Architectural Design Manual, the second in a two-volume series will be distributed in the coming weeks. In addition to a full selection of curtain wall systems, this design manual features entrances, sun control systems, windows, hurricane (impact) resistant systems, blast mitigation systems, and a selection of C.R. Laurence architectural hardware systems, including the new line of Guarda™ Protective Security Screens.

“The new U.S. Aluminum Curtain Wall Architectural Design Manual is evidence of C.R. Laurence’s rock-solid commitment to the market and to those that specify, purchase, and install U.S. Aluminum products,” says Lloyd Talbert, President of C.R. Laurence. “Both this catalog, as well as its sister architectural design manual, the U.S. Aluminum USAL14 Store Front Store, reflect over 100 years of combined U.S. Aluminum and C.R. Laurence experience. With the new design manuals, as well the usalum.com and crl-arch.com web sites, architects and glazing contractors have 24/7 access to a complete database of priceless storefront and curtain wall system information.”

With U.S. Aluminum and C.R. Laurence joining forces, USAL15 brings together accessories, components, and installation hardware, plus technical details such as specifications, dead load and wind load charts, glass size formulas, and more in an all-in-one valuable reference resource.
