        I found some in the google 3D warehouse by EFCO and others. Also, try this link to Kawneer/Alcoa

        http://products.construction.com/Manufacturer/Kawneer-Co---Inc--NST153/cad-bim

        This will get you to their curtain wall details which are downloadable in cad and bim formats.

        you might look up the plug-in "Windowizer" from "Smustard" (version 3 is free, version 4 is for a small fee) which has a lot of variable input that can be used to create your own wall

        "Out of clutter find simplicity,
        from discord find harmony,
        In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity"

            I'm not really sure if i understand your request!

            Most curtain walls have similar profiles and are usually a metal channel approx 100mm deep by 50mm wide.
            Yes there are other depths and widths available but that would depend on the manufacturer. You can get variety by choosing a different capping profile, if any. Try looking at the following:
            Shucco
            Reynears
            Sorba
            Some places will even let you download the cad files if you register.

            Where the design of the curtain wall comes in is how and where you place the vertical and horizontal profiles. How you do that will depend on the type and scale of the building as well as its environment and its surroundings.

            There are hundreds of examples out there with a simple google image search.

            Alternatively you could do as Jim suggests and use Windowizer...
