    In Europe windows are mounted to the walls with a pretty thick layer of foam to avoid stress from the walls. Isn’t that a common thing everywhere?

      As far as I am aware, it is not standard practice in India. Also, generally speaking in day-to-day, windows don’t carry stress from the walls. This could change during earthquakes.
