Unitised curtain walls panels are brought inside, hung using a crane, and fixed into place.

The site of our building is 21o rotated from north towards the west. In Melbourne, a good design for western shading is vertical fins at 45o, 800mm deep, and 1500mm spacing.

Because our building is already rotated 21o off north, the vertical fins only need to be rotated an additional 24o to meet this criteria for western sun shading. Our modules are spaced at 1500mm so this criteria is also met.
