ACP stands for “Aluminum Composite Panel.” It is a type of building material that consists of two thin aluminum sheets sandwiching a polyethylene core. It is commonly used for cladding, curtain walls, and architectural facades.
Glazing is the process of installing glass or other transparent material in a window or door opening. In the context of ACP, glazing with ACP fin detail would refer to installing glass or other transparent material in a window or door opening, and attaching the ACP panels to the frame using fins.
The fins are typically made of aluminum and are used to secure the ACP panels to the frame, providing a weather-tight seal and additional structural support.

Glazing with ACP fin detail drawing – 1
A glazing with ACP fin detail drawing is a technical drawing that shows the layout, dimensions, and specifications for installing glass or other transparent material in a window or door opening, and attaching the ACP panels to the frame using fins.
The drawing would typically include the following information:
- The layout and dimensions of the window or door opening, including the location and size of the glass or transparent material to be installed.
- The layout and dimensions of the ACP panels, including the location and size of the fins to be used for attaching the panels to the frame.
- The type and thickness of the glass or transparent material to be used.
- The type and thickness of the ACP panels.
- The type and size of the fins to be used.
- Any additional details about the installation, such as the type of weather-stripping to be used or the methods for attaching the fins to the frame.
It is important to note that the drawing should be prepared by a licensed engineer or architect, who can ensure that the design is compliant with local building codes and regulations.
