Aluminum Shadowbox Back Pans

Shadowbox Assembly Design
Shadowbox Assemblies consist of a opaque aluminum infill sheet behind the vision area and attached curtain wall Framing System. Insulation should be installed between the aluminum infill and the back pan to acts as an air and vapor barrier. This will maintain the dew point outside the cavity. The design of a Shadow Box Assembly requires care and diligence as an improper design can result in creating moisture inside the cavity. For more information on the Design of Shadow Boxes see BDCuniversity. |

Benefits of Shadowbox Back Pans
Shadow box construction creates the appearance of depth behind a translucent lite of glass by incorporating a painted aluminum sheet metal into the curtain wall behind the glass. The aluminum sheet metal should be at least two inches behind the glass and painted to create a texture and prevent oxidization. Reflective finishes enhance the visual depth of the unit.
Insulation should also be installed behind the shadow box if interior finishes prevent room air from contacting this area. The system should be designed to collect any condensation that may collect on the exterior side of the metal sheet and drain it back to the exterior. |
Careful detailing can provide a method to thermally isolate the cavity from the interior. An interior aluminum shadowbox back pan behind the insulation is desirable as well, to avoid condensation on the metal shadow box from the interior.
