Product description
The glass "Cube" in the new Spanish financial centre near Madrid is 21.6 metres high and 30 metres wide - a cube shaped bank lobby, designed by the architect Alfonso Millanes Mato. Inside, trees up to twelve metres high throw dynamic shadows and provide a pleasant room climate. The facade has been constructed without any framework structures for the glazing itself. Instead, a so-called "space frame system" is used, which connects the structural glazing facade to a filigree support structure made of steel. The protection of the lobby from the intense Spanish sun is ensured by around 3,500 square metres of ipasol solar control glass.

02 Technical Data
technical description
The solar control glass ipasol neutral 48/27 was used for the cube's sides - it ensures neutral transparency, lots of daylight and a high degree of solar control, all at the same time. Due to the low total solar energy transmittance (g value = 27 percent according to EN 410), the interior heats up only to a minor degree even during strong solar irradiation - this reduces the requirement for air-conditioning. Nevertheless, the solar control glass has a relatively high daylight transmittance (tL = 48 percent). In winter, the Ug value of 1.1 W/m²K (according to EN 673) provides effective insulation.
