большеTerracotta panel, as the material of hanging curtain wall, first appeared in Europe in 1985. The inspiration came from a European architect who worshiped the earthenware culture of Chinese Terracotta Warriors. The architect transferred the feeling into creation of building material. The unique argil texture and natural color make the architecture look similar to the art of Chinese Terracotta Warriors. Therefore, it was named Terracotta Panel.
The application of terracotta curtain wall was initiated from Germany. The engineer Professor Thomas Herzog put forward a tentative plan to apply the roof tile to the wall and finally invented the hanging system and terracotta panel for external wall. As a result, a factory specified in the production of terracotta panel was established. In 1985, the first project of terracotta panel was completed in Munich of Germany.
As glass curtain wall has been extensively applied in the appearance design of architectures since 1990s, avant-garde architects sought to combine luminous and modern feeling of glass with terracotta panel to form with coexistence of ancient and modern style. The trial made a great success.
The manufacturing process of terracotta panel originated from the roof tile. After the middle period of 20th century with the emergence of the concept of outer retaining structure of architecture, the light steel keel system was applied in the architecture and developed rapidly. Meanwhile, mechanical equipment for extrusion, drying the firing tended to be modernized, technicalized and automated.
