The type of wall is also called in the text a protective wall.
Is it just beskyttende vegg or sth like this?
It is not the underground type that I found in some other question here. It is a wall outside another wall that is made of aluminium and glass.

curtain wall
This English term is used like it is in Norwegian construction terminology. Some people call it a "påhengsvegg", but I would recommend keeping the English term.

beskyttelsesvegg
Hvis hovedpoenget med veggen er beskyttelse, ville jeg sagt beskyttelsesvegg. Hvis den er mest til pynt, fasadevegg.

Hi again Kat,
This is "forblendingsmur" which is a type of "fasadekledning" (that could also be used).

: Tror ikke det er snakk om en forblendingsmur, Morten. Synes uansett at "vegg" bør med i oversettelsen.

Da blir det jo rart å kalle det mur.
