fig1 shows a part of a facade embodied in a metal glass structure with a metal framework of vertical member profiles 1 and cross member profiles 2 which are oriented at an angle and are installed on the vertical member profile 1 . the end faces of the vertical member profile 1 and the cross member profile 2 each have a center rib 100 which is configured for securing cover plates 101 . these cover plates 101 hold inserts , such as plates , for example insulating glass panes 102 . the end faces of the cross member profile 2 are notched in such a way that the profile wall 3 which faces the insulating glass pane and forms the bottom for the leakage water channel 4 and the sealing groove 5 , is supported on the installed state of the sealing groove 6 of the vertical member profile 1 . the sealing groove 6 of the vertical member profile 1 is located — when viewed from the building side of the facade — above a cavity 7 . the sealing groove 6 and the cavity 7 together delimit the leakage water channel 8 of the vertical member profile 1 . in the exemplary embodiment shown on the right - hand side of the vertical member profile 1 in fig1 the sealing groove 6 of the vertical member profile 1 can also be formed so as to be open towards the bottom , so that the sealing groove 6 extends into the region of the cavity 7 and the sealing groove 6 is combined with the cavity 7 to a sealing groove 9 which combines a function of the sealing groove and the cavity . the sealing strip 10 with the actual glass support region 10 a and the sealing foot 10 b of the cross member profile 2 advantageously includes a condensate channel 11 which is formed on the glass support region 10 a as one - piece and has preferably a rectangular shape . the channel wall of the condensate channel 11 facing the sealing element of the sealing strip 10 sealingly contacts the outer surface of the cross member profile 2 . the underside of the channel bottom 2 is aligned or flush with the underside of the profile wall 3 . in principle , the condensate channel 11 can have other shapes , for example a round cross - section , although a rectangular shape is preferred because of the advantageous visual effects and stability . it is important that the channel cross - section is dimensioned so as to support a sufficiently large water discharge and provide adequate rigidity . particularly advantageous is also the one - piece construction of the sealing strip 10 . various multi - piece constructions of the sealing strip are also feasible . the sealing strip 10 extends into the region of sealing strip 13 of the vertical member 1 where it contacts an end sealing element 14 to which the glass support seal 13 of the vertical member 1 is connected or formed . the end sealing element 14 has an extension 15 to the sealing strip 10 of the cross member profile 2 , which corresponds to the condensate channel 11 and encompasses the condensate channel 11 on the side and from below , thereby supporting and aligning the condensate channel 11 . the end sealing element 14 includes a condensate channel which faces the cross member profile and terminates in the alignment region of the sealing strip 13 in a closed hollow channel , from which a drain 16 extends downwardly , penetrating the channel bottom 17 of the sealing groove 6 and terminating in the cavity 7 . alternatively , the drain 16 extends into the sealing groove 9 which is open towards the bottom . in this case , the drain 16 in the end sealing element 14 may be omitted , so that only a drain opening is provided in the sealing element of the end sealing element 14 . the facade structure depicted in fig1 with the novel seal provides a cost - effective condensate drainage system of simple construction which operates reliably and separately from the leakage water drainage of the leakage water channels 4 and 8 . fig2 shows a facade structure , wherein the vertical member and cross member profile 1 , 2 are identical to that of fig1 . in addition to fig1 however , the sealing strip 21 of the vertical member profile 1 also includes a condensate channel 18 which is formed directly on the glass support region of the sealing strip , which is once more encompassed and supported by an extension 19 of an end sealing element 20 . the end sealing element 20 includes a kind of foot , which engages with and is formfittingly secured in both the sealing groove 5 of the cross member profile and the sealing groove 6 , 9 of the vertical member . the end sealing element 20 furthermore includes a channel which is flush with the condensate channel 11 and lengthens the condensate channel and extends through the leg of the end sealing element which is flush with the sealing strip 21 . in this way , the leakage water channel 8 of the vertical member is directly connected with the condensate drainage system , i . e ., the condensate is discharged directly into the leakage water drainage system . the end sealing element 20 can include a drain extension 22 towards the leakage water channel 8 . according to fig2 the drainage system for the condensate and the leakage water are no longer separate , but combined into an all - inclusive system . this makes it also possible to reduce the air exchange between the leakage water channel 8 and the condensate channel 11 , 18 to a minimum . for this purpose , a fibrous filter insert 25 ( see above ) is inserted in the channel that connects the condensate channels with the leakage water channel 8 of the vertical member . the filter insert 25 impedes air exchange , but also diverts the accumulating condensate to the leakage water drain through adhesion and through the capillary action of the filter material . the two different drainage systems of fig1 and 2 , meaning the combined or separate drains , as well as the arrangement of a condensate channel 18 on the sealing strip 21 can be interchangeably employed in various ways . the sealing strip 10 with the condensate channel 11 for the cross member profile 2 should be arranged on sloped surfaces at least on the topside of the cross member profile . this seal can also be placed on both sides of the cross member profile if the roof surfaces or the facades have a smaller slope . the same applies to facades where condensate accumulated on the topside of cross member profiles can be collected and drained through the condensate channel . the construction and function of the facade drainage system will now be described in more detail with reference to the additional drawings . fig3 shows a top view of a profile crossing point between , vertical member 1 and cross member 2 . the sealing strip 21 with the integrated condensate channel 18 is disposed on the vertical member 1 . the sealing strips 10 , 21 are connected via the end sealing element 20 . the condensate channels 11 , 18 are surrounded and supported by the extensions 15 , 19 , which also provide a sealing function . in addition , correspondingly larger adhesive surfaces suitable for connecting the seals with the end sealing element are obtained . fig3 shows the separate drainage of leakage water into the space 9 and the cavity 7 under the sealing strip 21 . also visible is the drainage channel 23 which extends beyond the condensate channel 11 to the end sealing element 20 and to the drain 16 . fig4 shows , unlike fig3 also is sealing strip , or in this case a glass support seal 13 , for the vertical member 1 , however here without a condensate channel . fig5 shows a top view of a facade of the type depicted in fig2 . the drainage channel 24 , which is aligned with the condensate channel 11 and terminates in the leakage water channel 8 of the vertical member 1 , is clearly visible in this top view of a profile crossing point this drainage channel is filled with a filter insert 25 which essentially prevents air exchange between the leakage water channels 8 , also referred to as joint spaces , and the condensate channels , also referred to as interior spaces . only the condensate is diverted through adhesion on the fibers and capillary action in the channels formed by the fibers . fig6 corresponds essentially to the structure of fig1 except that the sealing strip 13 is implemented without a condensate channel and drainage is achieved — as in fig5 — via the drainage channel 24 and the installed filter insert 25 . according to fig7 only the sealing strip 13 has to be inserted into the vertical member 1 . the sealing strip 10 with the condensate channel 11 contacts an end sealing element 26 which extends the cross member seal 10 into the region of the vertical member profile 1 . the end sealing element 26 engages with a foot section in the sealing groove 5 of the cross member profile wherein it is affixed together with the seal 10 . the width of the end sealing element 26 corresponds to the total width of the sealing strip 10 , including the condensate channel 11 , so that the end face of the seal 13 can be sealingly urged against the outside of the end sealing element 26 . in extension of the condensate channel 11 , the end sealing element 26 includes a drainage channel 27 , before which a condensate channel 11 can be connected . the drainage channel 27 terminates in a drain 16 which directs the condensate into the space 9 or the cavity 7 of the vertical member , separate from the leakage water . fig8 shows , like fig7 the crossing point of a vertical member profile 1 with the cross member profile 2 . shown is an end sealing element 28 which is provided in the overlap region between the cross member profile and the vertical member and which has a drainage channel 27 that terminates in the drainage channel 8 or in the joint of the vertical member profile . this end sealing element 26 is particularly suited for cross member profiles that are joined at an angle , since the end sealing element 26 can be cut to the joining angle of the profiles . the surface of the end sealing element 26 facing the sealing strip 13 is smooth and can be sealingly attached to the glass support seal 13 . the drainage channel 27 is provided with the filter insert 25 , as previously shown in fig5 and 6 . fig9 and 10 further show that the end sealing element 26 is mainly intended for the crossing points where the cross member profile 2 abuts the vertical member profile at an angle . for this purpose , the end sealing element is configured to be correspondingly longer than for a square joint , so that it can be easily adapted to different configurations . fig9 shows the aforementioned angled joint between the cross member profile and the vertical member profile and therefore corresponds to the aforedescribed fig7 . only the end sealing element 26 and the sealing strip 13 are matched to the joining angle of the profiles . fig1 is a top view of an angled joint between a cross member and a vertical member , while corresponding in all other aspects to the description of fig8 . only the end sealing element 28 and the sealing strip 13 of the vertical member are configured to match the crossing angles . fig1 is a perspective exploded view of the structure of a connection between a cross member and a vertical member of a facade . the cross member profile 2 overlaps the vertical member profile 1 in the region of the sealing groove . the difference in height is compensated by the different heights of the seal 10 and the seal 13 , 13 . 1 . this difference in height is also compensated by the end sealing element 14 . shown is an end sealing element 14 and a sealing strip which does not include the condensate channel 18 depicted in fig2 . the end sealing element 14 is clearly visible . the legs of the end sealing element included in the joining region with the respective sealing strip 10 , 13 centering cams 29 , 30 , 31 which cooperate and engage with corresponding cavities in the glass support profiles , thereby fixing the position of the components relative to each other . the cams simultaneously increase the size of the contact surfaces , enabling the components to be joined later with an adhesive . the drain 16 or the drainage extension 22 with the drainage channel 27 that is closed by a filter insert 25 can be arranged either on the end sealing element 14 or on the end sealing element 20 . fig1 also shows a perspective exploded view of a crossing point of a facade with cross members and vertical members . this figure shows the end sealing element 26 which also has a centering cam 29 that cooperates with a cavity of the glass support profile 10 . the glass support profile 13 is elastically supported on the outer surface of the end sealing element 26 . for separately draining the condensate , the end sealing element 26 can be provided with the drain 16 or , if the leakage water is added , with the drainage channel 27 and the filter insert 25 . fig1 shows the end sealing element 14 , representative also of the end sealing element 20 which has been described in detail above . instead of the drainage channel 27 and the illustrated sealing insert 25 , the end sealing element is to be provided with the drain 16 for separate condensate drainage . the same applies also to fig1 which shows the end sealing element 26 . instead of using corner sealing elements or end sealing elements , the sealing strip 10 including the condensate channel 11 can extend into the overlap region of cross member 2 and vertical member 1 ( not shown here ). the sealing strip 13 of the vertical member profile is then extended to the outside of the condensate channel 11 under pretension , wherein an adapter element is inserted in the condensate channel 11 in the region of the sealing strip 13 which compensates , on one hand , the difference in overall height to the glass support and closes the condensate channel 11 , so that the condensate can be diverted through a stamped opening in the channel bottom of the condensate channel 11 to the space 9 under the sealing strip 13 or into the chamber 7 . the adapter element can also form a channel in which a filter insert 25 is the arranged which effects drainage into the joint and / or the leakage water channel 8 . in particular in the last described embodiment , but also in the embodiments depicted in fig7 , 9 , 10 , 12 and 14 , which all include the end sealing element 26 , the height difference between the cross member profile and the vertical member profile to the glass support plane can also be compensated by a two - piece seal 13 on the vertical member ( see fig1 ). contemplated is here a combination of an aluminum base strip and a corresponding sealing strip 10 without a condensate channel . the structure of the sealing strips , and in particular the sealing strips that have an attached or integrally formed drainage channel , will now be described in detail . fig1 shows an enlarged cross - sectional view of the sealing strip 10 , wherein the plane x of the sealing strip 10 is supported on the two upper edges of the sealing groove 5 and the sealing strip 10 is held by the sealing foot formfittingly in the cross member profile 2 . a rib 10 c , which is formed directly on the side of the glass support region 10 a and has essentially the height of the glass support region 10 a , is connected to the sealing structure . the exemplary sealing structure corresponds essentially to the conventional glass support region 10 a with a sealing foot 10 b integrally formed for engagement in the sealing groove 5 , which ( not shown here ) can also be hingedly connected via a type of film hinge , so that the glass support region can be relatively easily separated from the foot region in the overlap region with the vertical member profile . the condensate channel 11 which is open to the insulating glass pane but is otherwise rectangular and has a substantially u - shape , is formed on the stable rib 10 c , which encompasses the outer lateral edge of the sealing groove 5 . the condensate channel 11 is formed by the channel walls 12 , 200 and the channel bottom 130 and is supported on the cross member profile 2 with the side 12 facing the cross member profile 2 . the plane y of the channel wall 12 oriented towards the sealing structure hence forms also the lateral attachment and contact plane on the cross member profile 2 . the sealing structure and / or the glass support region 10 a have — and seen from the plane x , i . e ., the top edge of the sealing groove 5 — a height “ a ”, whereas the leakage water channel that extends from the plane x to the bottom edge of the channel bottom 130 has the dimension “ b ”. the effective overall height “ h ” of the sealing strip 13 for the vertical member profile 1 is composed of the height of the glass support region and the dimension “ b ” of the leakage water channel , i . e ., the sum “ a + b ”. the dimensions a and b are selected such that the channel bottom 130 of the leakage water channel is positioned on the top edges of the sealing groove 6 of the vertical member profiles . in addition , the channel wall 200 is perpendicular to the channel bottom 130 and in a particular embodiment forms a part of the contact surface for the sealing strip 13 . in an advantageous embodiment , the height h of the channel wall 200 is equal to the dimension “ b ” of the condensate channel 11 . fig1 to 18 enable a comparison of the overall dimensions of the different seals . fig1 shows the sealing strip 10 for the cross member profile 2 , fig1 shows the sealing strip 13 for the vertical member profile , and fig1 shows a combined sealing unit 13 . 1 for the vertical member profile . fig1 to 18 are laid out next to each other to clearly indicate that the glass support profile 10 for the cross member profiles including the condensate channel 11 has the same overall height as the vertical member seals according to fig1 and 17 . according to fig1 , the sealing strip or the sealing strip 13 . 1 are formed as two pieces , i . e ., the sealing strip includes a sealing strip 21 made of a sealing material and a joint reduction profile 220 which is typically made of the same material as the cross member profile and the vertical member profile , i . e . possibly or preferably fabricated of aluminum . the joint reduction profile 220 has a height b which in a particularly advantageous embodiment of the channel wall 200 corresponds to the height of the seal 10 . the sealing strip 21 into this configuration can extend to the channel rib or bottom of the sealing strip 10 , wherein the sealing foot of the sealing strip 21 is removed in the overlap region with the condensate channel 11 . the corresponding drainage channel is filled by the filter insert 25 or closed by a sealing element . this ensures that the condensate water is drained into the leakage water channel 8 or the cavity underneath the sealing strip 7 , 9 of the vertical member profile . fig1 shows a section of the sealing strip 10 , wherein a shaped sealing element 23 can be inserted into the end sections of the sealing strip 10 in the region of the condensate channel 11 . this shaped sealing element 23 extends the condensate channel to the upper sealing surface of the sealing strip 10 and also terminates flush with the channel wall 20 , so that the sealing strip of the vertical member profile forms a smooth contact surface for an end seal in the overlap region between the cross member profile 2 and the vertical member profile 1 . in the present example , the sealing strip 10 is extended , to the overlap region of the profiles , without the need for additional corner sealing elements or end sealing elements . the shaped sealing element 23 leaves a channel open so that a stamped opening in the bottom of the condensate water channel 11 is accessible for draining the condensate . unlike the shaped sealing element shown in fig1 , the shaped sealing element 240 of fig2 includes a continuous channel so that the condensate can be directed into the leakage water reservoir of the cross member profile . the filter insert 25 made of a synthetic pa filter medium can be inserted into this open channel . fig2 shows again a facade crossing point or crossing region . the sealing strip 10 is once more extended into the overlap region , so that the condensate channel is supported on the sealing groove of the vertical member profile . the shaped sealing element 23 , 240 forms the closed support surface , so that the sealing strip 13 can sealingly contact the sealing strip 10 and / or the condensate channel 11 .
