Abstract
A wall system includes a panel having a lower end, a panel assembly having an upper end, and a transition beam positioned between the panel and the panel assembly. The transition beam couples to the upper end of the panel assembly, and the transition beam defines a channel that receives the lower end of the panel to thereby couple the transition beam to the panel. The panel assembly includes a cladding panel having a rail projection, and the transition beam defines an engagement channel that receives the rail projection such that the cladding panel couples to the transition beam.
Claims17
A wall system comprising;
- a glass panel having a lower end;
- a panel assembly having an upper end;
- and
- a transition beam that couples to the upper end of the panel assembly, wherein the transition beam includes a channel sized to receive the lower end of the glass panel such that the transition beam couples the glass panel to the panel assembly.
A wall system comprising:
- a first panel having an upper end, a lower end opposite the upper end, a first side end, and a second side end opposite the first side end;
- a first panel assembly having an upper end, a first side end, and a second side end opposite the first side end;
- a first transition beam that couples to the upper end of the first panel assembly and defines a channel that receives the lower end of the first panel;
- a first transition column that couples to the first transition beam, the first transition column defines a channel that receives the first side end of the first panel;
- and
- a second transition column that couples to the first transition beam and is spaced apart from the first transition column, the second transition column defines a channel that receives the second side end of the first panel.
