    Abstract. The work is devoted to the development of classification of curtain wall structures as a necessary condition for the formation of a system regulatory framework for the design, manufacture and installation of translucent structures. The analysis conducted shows that at present the domestic system of regulating translucent structures is not sufficiently developed and structured. A wide use of borrowed foreign words and slang terms is noted among the specialists. In the basic normative documents concerning the design, construction and operation of buildings in general, and in specialized documents (on fire safety, energy efficiency, etc.) to refer to translucent structures terms and definitions that are often not consistent with each other are used. Until recently, a standardized classification of curtain walls has not been developed, appropriate standardized terms have not been defined, effective and recommended applications of facades of various types have not been formulated. The article analyzes some existing translucent facades classifications. The basis of the classification was the allocation of the main classification feature - the structural type of the frame. It is assumed that this classification feature is decisive, and on its basis should be formed a modern regulatory framework in the field of translucent facades. Other classification features that are necessary for a more detailed classification of structures are considered.
    Key words: curtain walls, translucent structures, classification, classification features, skeleton type.
