Abstract: | The development of the lightweight, non-load-bearing skin to buildings is arguably one of the major changes which has occurred in construction during the twentieth century. The technique has developed from being a rarity at the turn of the century to become the commonest solution on the majority of medium and high-rise structures today. Architectural historians could illustrate the buildings which have marked the evolution points and provided the impetus for new developments. What is perhaps more interesting is the way in which architects and engineers have worked with industry to produce components and systems which reflect the changing functional and aesthetic requirements. |
