    Abstract: A curtain wall system includes a vertical member and a horizontal member coupled to the vertical member at a joint. A vertical bridge gasket is coupled to the vertical member and includes a vertically-extending interior gasket, a vertically-extending thermal break gasket, and a vertical bridge member extending between the vertically-extending interior and thermal break gaskets. A horizontal bridge gasket is coupled to the horizontal member and joined to the vertical bridge gasket at a corner joint, the horizontal bridge gasket includes a horizontally-extending interior gasket, a horizontally-extending thermal break gasket, and a horizontal bridge member extending between the horizontally-extending interior and thermal break gaskets. The vertical and horizontal bridge gaskets cover the joint between the vertical and horizontal members.
