Developers and general contractors specify it on premium elevations where the balcony is part of the unit's selling view, while keeping the same factory-finished, bolt-on installation path as the rest of the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe platform is a welded aluminum perimeter frame and joist assembly, corners mitered at 45 degrees and welded at 0.25 in and 0.375 in thickness. Clear tempered glass panels are set in aluminum rail frames between welded posts at a 42 in guard height, so occupants get an unbroken view with a wipe-clean surface. Decking is the 140 x 25 mm composite WPC program on keel and clip fasteners, factory installed and set level with the interior subfloor at installation. Wall-side knife plates bolt to embeds in the building structure, and the unit sets by crane or lift. Glass adds real mass, so per-size unit weights are published on every variant for rigging and take-off planning across the five standard footprints.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear tempered glass infill for the most open view line in the platform family\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e42 in guard height with glass set in aluminum rail frames between welded posts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive standard sizes: 4 ft x 8 ft, 5 ft x 8 ft, 4 ft x 9 ft 6 in, 5 ft x 9 ft 6 in, 5 ft x 10 ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded aluminum frame, 45 degree mitered corners, 0.25 in and 0.375 in weld thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnife plate connection to building structure embeds, bolt-on with no field welding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComposite WPC deck, 140 x 25 mm boards on keel and clip fasteners, factory installed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowder coat program: Matte Black standard;
