4 NANAWALL OPERABLE ALL-GLASS BALCONY GLAZING SYSTEMS The NanaGlass SL25 provides architects, building owners, property managers, homeowner associations and contractors with a solution for increasing usable living space, enhancing an aging building s value, preservation and preventative maintenance issues, improving overall energy efficiencies, and building modernization. Space Utilization & Enhanced Property Values The NanaGlass operable all-glass panel system provides building owners with a structure that is more visually appealing as well as including financial benefits. In a rental building, higher rents are commanded through increased usable square footage and the elimination of the balcony as an unsightly storage space. Additionally, an operable glass panel system offers greater security for families with young children, enabling them to choose higher floors without worry. Condominium buildings have the added benefit of increased property values combined with reduced maintenance costs. Appearance & Efficiency Equipping balconies with NanaGlass significantly improves the buildings curb appeal while adding numerous aesthetic and sustainable enhancements. The building façade changes from dark pockets of rarely used balconies to a modern aesthetic, with occupants using their spaces year-round day-in-day-out regardless of weather conditions. Benefits include increased overall energy efficiency by adding a double skin layer to the entire structure in addition to capitalizing on passive solar warmth and cross ventilation and reduced urban noise pollution within each unit. Preventative Maintenance & Preservation Long-term benefits of the NanaGlass system include providing building owners, property managers, façade renovators and architects with a solution for preservation and preventative maintenance issues associated with cold and aging balconies. With a primary design focus on buildings constructed over the past fifty years, our glazing system transforms decaying balconies into year-round usable living spaces while significantly reducing balcony and façade maintenance costs. Recent studies prove that equipping aging balconies with glazing reduces moisture content and water collection, considerably reducing the corrosion rates of steel and disintegration of concrete. 2

52 NANAGLASS SL25 engineering details Weather and Noise Resistant When shut, because of only a 1/8 (3 mm) gap between panels, a certain level of protection is provided against wind, rain and snow. The SL25 with 5/16 (8 mm) tempered glass tested to an STC value of 17. With thicker and/or laminated glass, even higher values are possible. High Structural Performance Depending on structural design wind load requirements, glass thicknesses from 5/16 (8 mm) to 1 2 (12 mm) is available. A DP of +40 psf/ -45 psf per ASTM E330 structural load testing was achieved with 1 2 (12 mm) and 2 7 (800 mm) x 7 8 ((2350 mm) panels. Forced Entry Protection The pin and socket locking system for the ADA flush sill option provides security. 50 In-Line Load Bearing The horizontal twin ball bearing runner carriages with 140 lbs (65 kg) load bearing capacity are in-line. This means that when the panels are open, the structural load is within the plane of the opening. Easy to Clean Outer glass surfaces can easily be cleaned from the inside thanks to the laterally secured panels.

53 Ventilation The primary opening panel can be opened and held in place at two levels for controlled ventilation. Height Compensation With a compensation channel, height variations and deflections of up to 1 3/8 can be accommodated for quick and easy installation. Width Adjustment Width compensation up to 1 3/16 (30 mm) is possible by means of adjustable frame and panel stops. Knob On the primary opening panel, as an alternative to the patented stainless steel cable control in a one hand operation, a knob is available for both internal and external use. 51

The NanaWall is a custom-made operable glass panel system that opens wide to blur the line between indoors and outdoors. Easily opened, the panels stack or stow away out of sight, opening the room to the outside. When closed, the panels provide a weather-resistant barrier protecting against wind, rain, snow, and cold temperatures. NanaWall s are used in single-family homes, condominiums, multi-family buildings, restaurants, schools, hotels, stadiums, hospitals, and wineries or any location that benefits from a large opening glass wall. Unrivaled in the industry, the NanaWall meets or exceeds industry standards for air infiltration, water penetration, structural performance, forced entry, and hurricane/extreme weather protection (the NanaWall SL73 aluminum folding system is Hurricane Certified by Miami/Dade County).
