Slenderwall® Architectural Wall Panels
Leesburg Concrete is a licensed producer of SlenderWall®, a proprietary high-performance, thermal, and fire code compliant, ASTM E119 fire tested architectural precast composite modular cladding system. As an exterior cladding wall panel system with great design flexibility, Slenderwall® reduces structural costs and on-site trades.
Lightweight Exterior Cladding
SlenderWall is designed to be lightweight (about 30 lbs. per square foot compared to approximately 85 lbs. for traditional heavy architectural precast), reducing foundation and superstructure requirements and reducing shipping and installation costs. The exterior precast concrete cladding and integrated stud system is isolated from the structural stresses associated with wind loading (tested to 226mph), steel frame movement, expansion and contraction, and seismic shock.
Reinforced, High-Strength Wall Panels
The SlenderWall® panel’s exterior surface is 2 inches of reinforced high-strength architectural precast concrete separated from the steel stud by ½” air space reduces thermal transfer between the materials. The inside surface is 14-16 gauge, 6-inch galvanized steel studs spaced vertically at 2-foot centers. The architectural concrete is secured to the steel-stud frame with ThermaGuard™, a proprietary connection system utilizing insulated, stainless-steel welded Nelson® anchors. SlenderWall® has been fully tested and meets the required ASTM and AAMA standards. SlenderWall® is used for new construction, re-cladding, and renovation of large, multi-story commercial and multi-family buildings.

SlenderWall® Features & Benefits
SlenderWall® provides designers with unique and limitless design flexibility and function. Additionally, SlenderWall® has several proprietary features yielding benefits that no other wall system provides, including:- Superb architectural design flexibility (limitless combinations of architectural precast textures, colors, shapes and finishes).
- Superior durability.
- Permanent components.
- Plant-produced quality.
- Lightweight (about 30 lbs. per square foot compared to approx. 85 lbs. for heavy architectural precast).
- Economical (reduces building foundation and structure costs plus shipping and installation costs).
- Makes cantilever designs practical.
- Mounts outboard of the floor slab, yielding bonus square footage on each floor.
- Perfect for both re-cladding and new construction.
- Smaller cranes and fewer trailers to jockey.
