A curtain wall construction system, comprising:
- a) a plurality of interconnected curtain wall supporting beams;
- b) one or more elongated and compressible sealing elements attached to at least one of the curtain wall supporting beams,
- wherein said curtain wall construction system is configured with a dedicated interspace within which a corresponding set of one or more rigid and impermeable panels is introducible, said curtain wall construction system further comprising:
- c) a linearly displaceable clamping element that is clampable against the introduced set of panels to form a clamping arrangement which provides sealing protection in conjunction with the one or more sealing elements,
- wherein each of the interconnected curtain wall supporting beams is a spaced-web support member, and the clamping element includes a clamping member configured with a protruding plate which is capable of being received within an inter-web cavity between two laterally spaced webs of one of the spaced-web support members,
- wherein the spaced-web support member comprises a single two-layered triangularly shaped head portion.
