Ceramic panel curtain walls are mainly divided into ceramic thin plate curtain walls and ceramic thick plate (quartz brick) curtain walls. Thin ceramic panel curtain walls are usually installed using large-sized ceramic sheets with a thickness of less than 6mm and a surface area of not less than 1.62 square meters. The adhesive sub frame hanging method is used to bond the ceramic sheets with the aluminum alloy frame through structural adhesive to form a whole; Thick porcelain plate curtain walls usually use porcelain plates with a thickness of ≥ 15mm and a single porcelain plate area of ≤ 1.5 ㎡ for dry hanging installation.
The installation methods of thick and thin porcelain panels vary. Here, we introduce two types of dry hanging techniques for thick porcelain panels (quartz tiles) curtain walls: back bolted dry hanging technique, slotted dry hanging technique, and three commonly used hanging accessories: H-shaped hanging accessories, R-shaped hanging accessories (ear hanging), and C-shaped hanging accessories (mother and child hanging accessories).

In modern high-rise buildings, quartz brick curtain walls can bring a heavy sensory texture and are a good choice for many public building exterior walls. They have a stable and down-to-earth modern architectural style, strong artistic sense, and natural charm.

Advantages:
1. High safety: The construction and adjustment of flatness are relatively convenient, and each quartz brick is independently stressed, which can eliminate the load response caused by hard contact. It has good wind resistance, reduces the influence of thermal expansion and contraction, flexible node construction, convenient daily maintenance, and high service life;
2. No alkali return: The entire quartz brick is fixed by a steel frame, and there will be no alkali return phenomenon;
3. Seismic resistance: The back bolt is flexibly connected to the quartz brick through a nylon mesh sleeve, which has better seismic performance, solves the problem of quartz brick being squeezed and cracked, effectively reduces damage to the buffer sleeve, and increases the back bolt's ability to resist axial pull off.
Disadvantages:
1. High cost: The cost of steel frame structure is high, labor cost is high, the cost of drilling is about 5 yuan/piece, and the cost of hanging parts is about 3 yuan/piece;
2. Space occupation: Steel frame structures take up a large amount of space, and at least 80mm of space must be reserved to use dry hanging technology;
3. Poor impact resistance: When using dry hanging technology to produce quartz bricks with larger specifications, the steel frame at the back is largely empty. When subjected to vertical force from the quartz brick, it may experience fragmentation.
