The VITROCSA – 3001 window system is used for external fitting. It permits the use of sliding and fixed elements. The special features of this system are summarized in the following points:
• The elements (fixed or sliding) comprise U profiles which are stuck to the perimeter of the insulating glass. On the sides, The U profile is covered with a connector profile which ensures the doors are watertight and rigid. The maximum dimension of a sliding element is limited to 6 m2. The thickness of the insulating glass is 26 mm.
• The frame comprises one or more rails equipped with a ball bearing system in the sliding areas. This ensures the weight of the glazing is distributed to the structure of the building.
• The iron fittings used in this system are all manufactured by Orchidées Constructions SA (cf. VITROCSA - 3001 catalogue).
These special features enable large dimension windows to be made with very slim profiles. The picture below presents a model tested by CSTB in Paris in the context of a request from ATEX, during the week of 27 to 31 March 2006.

By virtue of its constitution, VITROCSA – 3001 window applications are extremely flexible and exist in a variety of sliding configurations. Closing elementsClosing elementsClosing elementsClosing elements There is a very wide variety of locking options, defined together with the person in charge of the project. The most common type of locking system is the closing button (cf. VITROCSA - 3001 profiles drawing). Orchidées Constructions SA also supplies locking systems which comply with the WK2 burglar resistance requirements. Insulating glassInsulating glassInsulating glassInsulating glass The insulating glass used in VITROCSA – 3001 glazing has a total thickness of 26 mm. Thicknesses and the type of glass sheets (Float, ESG or VSG) are defined in accordance with the dimensions and requirements of the project. The thermal performances of the glass (type of gas, film) are defined by the person in charge of the project. Draining chamberDraining chamberDraining chamberDraining chamber Draining the frame is carried out vertically and rain water is collected in a stainless steel chamber. This is equipped with a draining foam which reduces the pressure of the wind. The chamber also contains PVC weight-bearing elements which distribute the forces (dead load) of the glazing to the concrete structure.

The ball bearing rail is the main mechanism for operating the doors. It is located in the conveyance areas of the lower rails (1.1). The standard length of these elements is one metre. The number of bearings per m’ depends on the weight of the glazing.

Rain water is collected in the lower rails, then drained in the draining chamber (4.1) by vertical perforations. A detailed procedure for this draining system is illustrated by the picture below.
Figure3 : draining principle of the lower rails The draining chamber is equipped with a support element every 500 mm enabling it to transfer loads (dead load) from the frame to the concrete structure. A draining foam (4.2) is positioned between these elements in order to distribute the pressure of the wind into the draining chamber. The chamber is then fastened to a metal (or wooden) support which has had its level pre-adjusted. This operation is very important, it requires a very high level of precision.

In closed position, the connector profile creates a link between the sliding elements. It ensures watertightness and resistance to wind forces. The connector profile is also used as a support for the locking elements. The VITROCSA – 3001 system offers a whole range of connector profiles enabling the requirements of the project to be met.

5555 Reliability and preserving over timeReliability and preserving over timeReliability and preserving over timeReliability and preserving over time The first VITROCSA – 3001 window was developed at the start of the Nineties. With our current experience, we can confirm that this system presents no hidden defect. The sliding mechanism and the watertightness system operates perfectly on condition the window is installed professionally. In order to demonstrate consistent operation of the VITROCSA - 3001 window, we have run standardized tests in an accredited laboratory (SERVICE SUISSE D’ESSAI STS 317). The results of these experiments are presented in the following table:

6666 Static dimensioningStatic dimensioningStatic dimensioningStatic dimensioning The dimensioning of connector profiles is carried out based on the local wind pressures. These pressures are defined using construction standards (Eurocode, SIA 261, NV 65, etc.). E.g. for a site in Monaco, the wind load is determined as follows:
• The on-site wind pressure is described in the NV 65 (04/2000) standard with the assumptions: zone 2, exposed site.
• qv = 0.6 * 1.3 = 0.78 [kN/m2]
• ChoiceChoiceChoiceChoice: qv = 0.8 [kN/m2] Using this indication, Orchidées Constructions SA engineers determine the dimensioning of the glazing. The maximum deflection of the VITROCSA – 3001 window is limited to the following value:
mm15w;150
Lw maxmax
L : length of connector profile in mm. The maximum dimensioning stress of the VITROCSA – 3001 profiles (in aluminium) is limited to 120 N/mm2.

7.27.27.27.2 Calculating the UCalculating the UCalculating the UCalculating the Uwwww value of the window value of the window value of the window value of the window
The thermal transmittance Uw value of the window is calculated using the following variables:
• Dimensions of the window.
• Surface of the frame projected in the light void of the brickwork.
• Thermal transmittance coefficient of the Ug glazing [W/(m2K)].
• Thermal transmittance coefficient of the Ufm frame [W/(m2K)].
• Linear transmittance coefficient of the glazing [W/(mK)]. This way, the Uw value of the window depends on the different variables specific to this project. As a result, engineers from Orchidées Constructions SA calculate the Uw values on a case by case basis based on the requirements of the project.
