I just spent three days at the American Institute of Architects [annual convention][3] in Washington, DC, including a fair amount of time at the massive trade show there. I didn't make it all the way through the acres of exhibits over the eight hours or so I walked the floor, but I saw some really interesting products. I'm highlighting here a few of the windows and glazingWhen referring to windows or doors, the transparent or translucent layer that transmits light. High-performance glazing may include multiple layers of glass or plastic, low-e coatings, and low-conductivity gas fill.-related products I found.
