    Fin support systems use low iron glass fins suspended from above or resting on the structure below to provide highly transparent structural glass walls. The fins can reach heights of up to 10 meters and are kept in place using stainless steel shoes and connector plates, with splice plates allowing the fins to be segmented for easier fabrication and installation.
