Product catalog summary
Overview
Kalwall offers high-performance translucent building systems, focusing on energy-efficient daylighting solutions through their Pre-engineered and Custom Skyroofs, as well as Clearspan™ Systems. These systems are designed to withstand extreme weather conditions and provide OSHA-compliant safety features.

Pre-engineered Skyroofs
These systems include flat or curved designs that can span up to 25 feet, providing diffuse daylighting. They are designed to handle hurricane-force winds and high snow loads. Key features include:
  • Self-supporting ridge roofs and Kalcurve vaults.
  • U-factors ranging from 0.53 to 0.05.
  • Solar Heat Gain Coefficients (SHGC) from 0.65 to 0.04.
  • Visible Light Transmission (VLT) values from 3% to 50%.
Available configurations include self-supporting ridge roofs and Kalcurve low profile vaults, with options for translucent or glass end walls.

Custom Skyroofs
These offer greater flexibility with Kalwall translucent panels combined with sub-structures designed by others. They accommodate larger applications and complex geometries, such as pyramids and segmented domes. Specialty applications include windborne debris resistance and blast resistance.

Clearspan™ Systems
These systems utilize lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminum sub-structures combined with Kalwall panels, capable of spanning over 100 feet. They offer turnkey solutions from design to installation, supporting additional features like light fixtures and sprinkler systems.

Specialty Applications
Kalwall systems can be engineered for specific needs, including:
  • Windborne debris resistance.
  • Blast resistance.
  • Factory Mutual certified roof systems.
  • OSHA fall-through protection.

Conclusion
Kalwall provides advanced daylighting solutions with a focus on safety, efficiency, and customization, suitable for a wide range of architectural applications.
