          Curtain wall glazing system is
          comprised       of     numerous
          components, each requiring
          function both separately and as
          a complete assembly. The                  MULLIN
          curtain wall system is an outer          MULLIN
          covering of a  building in which
          the     outer      walls      are
          non-structural, utilized to keep         SYSTEM
          the weather out and the                 SYSTEM
          occupants in. The structure is
          also    composed       of    both
          load-bearing     and     seismic        Incorporates a diamond module that marries
          systems.                                the most efficient use of non-standard glass
                                                  panel shapes with adequate steel spanning
