    Abstract: A sliding door system includes a stationary door frame, a sliding door panel installed in the stationary door frame and movable between a closed and open position, and a handle assembly coupled to the sliding door panel. The handle assembly includes a rack housing installed within a vertical stile of the sliding door panel, a rack positioned within the rack housing and movable between stowed and extended positions, and a handle operatively coupled to a pinion engageable with the rack, the handle being pivotable about a pivot axis between first and second positions. Rotating the handle from the first position to the second position causes the pinion to move the rack to the extended position and into engagement with the stationary door frame, whereby the sliding door frame is forced away from the stationary door frame from the closed position to the open position.

    Abstract: A window wall system includes a sill receptor secured to an upper surface of a first floor slab, the sill receptor providing a base and an upright member extending from the base, a head receptor secured to a bottom surface of a second floor slab vertically offset from the first floor slab, and a glazing unit providing a sill, a head, and one or more panels extending between the sill and the head. A first hook defined by the sill is engageable with the upright member. When the upright member is received by the hook, the glazing unit is pivotable about the upright member toward a vertical orientation. A second hook is defined by the sill and receivable within a groove defined in the sill receptor when the glazing unit reaches the vertical orientation.
